In regard to recent Star trek Questions: As Stated, Scotty could have phasered it, but this would be noticed. The Time travel was achieved using the Light Speed Breakaway Factor. I guess this is based on the method Spock/Scott used to return through time after hitting the black hole. The Enterprise was not detected as it had its Shields up. After hitting the black hole, the shields (and most everything else) was down. Spock states that 'Mr. Scott now has the shields up, which will prevent us from further being detected' (or something to this effect). Cheers, Gern

Forgive me for posting this to the wrong group, but I don't know of any other way to find out the information. What is the SF-LOVERS Digest? Who edits/distributes it? Whom do I write to get put on the mailing list? Please reponds via mail. thanks, tom -- Tom Christiansen University of Wisconsin Computer Science Systems Lab ...!{allegra,heurikon,ihnp4,seismo,uwm-evax}!uwvax!tom tom@wisc-crys.arpa
