DANIELS: It worked, Commander! The tear has been sealed.

[Enterprise-E engineering]

LAFORGE: Yeah, but there's nothing to stop them from doing it again. We're fresh out of warp cores.

[Enterprise-E bridge]

PERIM: We're still thirty-six minutes from transmission range, sir.

RIKER: We're through running from these bastards.

PICARD: I don't know how they do it on Deep Space 9, but on the Enterprise, we still report for duty on time.

(Worf jumps out his bunk, bashes his head)

WORF (on intercom): Sorry sir, I'm on my way.

PICARD: We'll skip the court martial this time. Picard out.

PICARD: When was the last time we aligned the torque sensors.

PERIM: Two months ago, sir.

PICARD: They don't sound right.

LAFORGE: The torque sensors are out of alignment ...by twelve microns. You could hear that?

PICARD: When I was an ensign, I could detect a three-micron misalignment.

PICARD: A perfect moment?

ANIJ: When time seemed to stop ...and you could almost live in that moment.

PICARD: Seeing my home planet from space for the first time.

ANIJ: Exactly. Nothing more complicated than perception. ...You explore the universe. We have discovered that a single moment in time can be a universe in itself, ...full of powerful forces. ...Most people aren't aware enough of the now to even notice.

PICARD: I wish I could spare a few centuries to learn.

ANIJ: It took us centuries to learn that it doesn't have to take centuries to learn it.

PICARD: There's one thing I don't understand. In three hundred years ...you never learned to swim!

ANIJ: I just haven't got around to it yet. ...I wonder if you're aware of the trust you endanger, Jean-Luc Picard. In my experience, it's unusual for...

PICARD: ...an offlander?

ANIJ: For someone so young.

Star Trek: Insurrection


DANIELS: They've detonated an isolytic burst. A subspace tear is forming.

RIKER: On screen.

PERIM: I thought subspace weapons were banned by the Khitomer Accord.

RIKER: Remind me to lodge a protest.

[Enterprise-E engineering]

LAFORGE: Our warp core is acting like a magnet to the tear. We're pulling it like a zipper across space.

RIKER (on intercom): Options?

LAFORGE: We could eject the core.

[Enterprise-E bridge]

RIKER: Will that stop the tear?

[Enterprise-E engineering]

LAFORGE: You got me, Commander.

[Enterprise-E bridge]

RIKER: Is that your expert opinion?

[Enterprise-E engineering]

LAFORGE: Detonating the warp core might neutralise the cascade, but then again it might not. Subspace weapons are unpredictable. That's why they were banned.

RIKER: The purpose being I intend to shove it down the Son'a's throat.

DANIELS: Commander, if one of their weapons hits that gas...

RIKER: It's our only way out of here, Mister Daniels.

[Enterprise-E engineering]

LAFORGE: I wouldn't be surprised if history remembers this as the Riker Maneuver.

[Enterprise-E bridge]

RIKER: If it works. ...Computer. Access manual steering column.

Apache Attack

By Richard Mackenzie

The helicopters would open the war. They had to take out Iraq's early warning net, and they had to get it all.


At 1:00 a.m. on January 17 (local time), Colonel Cody's White Team of four Apaches and two Pave Lows, each weighing more than 18,900 pounds, pulled out of Al Jouf into a jet-black sky, all lights off, and headed north.

Suddenly, the lights began to go off. One of the pilots mused, "I think they know we are here." Thirty seconds prior, the Apache crews turned on their ranging lasers.


Once all the Hellfires had been expended, the helicopters flew toward the sites and ripple-fired their rockets. Two thousand meters from the sites, they opened up with their 30 mm chain guns and riddled what remained of the compounds with every bullet they had. Four minutes after it started, it was over.


They turned south, rejoined with the Pave Lows, and headed home. En route, Captain Martin's crew observed what appeared to be the launch of two SA-7 missiles. They utilized their on-board defensive systems and some aggressive maneuvering to escape the missiles.

Electromagnetism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Electromagnetism, or the electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental interactions in nature, the other three being the strong interaction, the weak interaction, and gravitation. This force is described by electromagnetic fields, and has innumerable physical instances including the interaction of electrically charged particles and the interaction of uncharged magnetic force fields with electrical conductors.

(the ship shakes from a near miss)

RIKER: Photon torpedo. Isn't that the universal greeting when communications are down?

LAFORGE: I think it's the universal greeting when you don't like someone.

(the ship shakes again)

RIKER: Full impulse.

LAFORGE: The manifolds can't handle full impulse in the Patch, Commander.

RIKER: If we don't outrun them, the manifolds are going to be the only thing left on this ship.










http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warp_drive


Warp drive

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The later prequel series Star Trek: Enterprise describes the warp engine technology as a 'Gravimetric Field Displacement Manifold' (Commander Tucker's tour, "Cold Front"), and describes the device as being powered by an anti-matter/matter reaction which powers the two separate nacelles (one on each side of the ship) to create a displacement field










http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance


Capacitance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Capacitance is the ability of a body to store an electrical charge. Any object that can be electrically charged exhibits capacitance. A common form of energy storage device is a parallel-plate capacitor.

LAFORGE: Plasma injectors are on-line. Everything's looking good. I think we're ready.

RIKER: They should be out there right now. We better break the warp barrier in the next five minutes if we're going to get their attention.

LAFORGE: Main cells are charged and ready.










http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric


Dielectric

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A dielectric material (dielectric for short) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in a conductor, but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization. Because of dielectric polarization, positive charges are displaced toward the field and negative charges shift in the opposite direction. This creates an internal electric field that reduces the overall field within the dielectric itself. If a dielectric is composed of weakly bonded molecules, those molecules not only become polarized, but also reorient so that their symmetry axis aligns to the field.

PERIM: Commander, I'm showing two Son'a ships on an intercept course.

RIKER: How long 'til they reach us?

PERIM: Eighteen minutes.

LAFORGE: We won't be able to get a transmission out of here for at least another hour.

DANIELS (OC): They're hailing us.

RIKER: Tell them our transceiver assembly's down and we can send messages but not receive them.

DANIELS: I don't think they believe us.

RIKER: Why not?

(the ship shakes from a near miss)

RIKER: Photon torpedo. Isn't that the universal greeting when communications are down?

LAFORGE: I think it's the universal greeting when you don't like someone.

Eye Of The Beholder

Stardate: 47622.1

Original Airdate: Feb 28, 1994


TROI: Yridian tea. I've been thinking about what happened to me in the nacelle tube. Whether it was an empathic echo left by Kwan's death.

WORF: In the past, have your empathic experiences always involved the physical presence of another person?

TROI: All the ones I'm sure of, yes.

WORF: What do you mean, sure of?

TROI: Well, when I was a young girl, my grandfather used to tell me stories by the fire. I would close my eyes and listen to his mind for hours on end.

WORF: He would tell you these stories telepathically?

TROI: My grandfather rarely spoke. He said that was for off-worlders and people who didn't know any better. Now the only time I can remember his stories is when I go home and sit by the fireplace. Sometimes when I'm alone there, it's almost as if I can hear his voice inside my head.

WORF: Yes. Yes, I too have sought visions in fire.

TROI: I can't explain it, but it feels real to me. Just like what happened in the nacelle tube.

STAR TREK'S MOST CRINGE WORTHY MOVIE MOMENTS


3. Riker’s 90's era Joystick in Insurrection

Star Trek Insurrection flight controller.JPG

There’s cheesy and then there’s CHEESY and this qualifies in the latter. During a tense battle inside of a dangerous nebula the Enterprise is outnumbered and outgunned. A newly shaved Riker hatches a daring plan to collect some explosive gas, release it in front of their enemies and ignite it with a photon torpedo. This risky plan will require some fancy piloting of the Enterprise so Riker activates the “Manual Steering Column”… sounds cool right? Wrong. The Manual Steering Column turns out to be a standard off-the-shelf PC joystick from the late 90s. I’d love to have been a fly on the wall during the production meeting where that idea emerged because nothing makes more sense than a 24th century starship having a cheap looking joystick located on the bridge in a movie that cost 40+ million dollars. The scene still works despite the joystick but it’s a major eye rolling moment that calls into question the decision making process of the TNG films.

RIKER: Doctor, tomorrow morning when they detect the warp signature from your ship and realise that humans have discovered how to travel faster than light, they decide to alter their course and make first contact with Earth, right here.

COCHRANE: Here?

LAFORGE: Sir, it's actually over there.

RIKER: It is one of the pivotal moments in human history, Doctor. You get to make first contact with an alien race, and after you do, everything begins to change.

LAFORGE: Your theories on warp drive allow fleets of starships to be built and mankind to start exploring the Galaxy.

TROI: It unites humanity in a way no one ever thought possible

Then from what are you
running away from?

- Mmm?
- Oh, I'm not running away.

- Oh, there must have been some...
- Well, there was.

- A necktie.
- A what?

A necktie.

I was late for class
one morning.

I forgot my tie and they
wouldn't let me in.

How long ago was that?

US Navy Commander Richard T. Owens - USS Nimitz CVN 68 Commander Air Group: Mr. Lasky, the one thing we cherish aboard a ship is privacy. Maybe it's because we get so damn little of it.

Warren Lasky - United States Department of Defense civilian contractor employee: I understand. I hope you'll forgive me. You know, from what I've read, your manuscript is very good; I mean, really very good.
