[Up your what?] This was kind of puzzling, but it seems I remember when the crew of the Grissom had just spotted the metal artifact on the surface of Genesis, either the captain or David said something about "gravity was still in flux then...", followed by the captain ordering the communications officer to report that Spock's burial tube had been found. I guess this "flux" is supposed to have cushioned the tube enough during reentry to keep it from burning up. Well... (But gee, the *paint* wasn't even obliterated!) I think I also remember someone asking about why Klingons were using a Romulan Bird-of-Prey. Wasn't it the other way 'round? I thought that back during the series, the Romulans had bought Birds-of-Prey from the Klingons and painted them up with their colors. Guess someone finally figured out how to sterilize tribbles...
