reddit... the front page of the internet. These are the posts of the subreddit /r/Treknobabble. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new content and old favourites, to seek out new readers and other Star Trek communities, to boldly display whatever Trekkers want to upvote!
Important: "Search for duplicates before posting. Redundancy posts add nothing new to previous conversations." Front page reposts will be removed without hesitation, and other reposts up to 8 months old may be removed at the discretion of Treknobabble's caretakers.
Caution: This sub may contain spoilers. For more info, visit our Spoiler Guidelines wiki page.
NSFW posts may be removed without warning; please consider submitting such content to these subs instead.
No "meta" posts discussing other subreddits, please. Such posts may be construed as violating various Reddit rules and codes of conduct and could lead to punishment for this sub.
Regarding self-promotion (primarily videos): it is OK, however we ask that you limit yourself to no more than a couple of submissions each week. AND we ask that you also engage with the community via the comments (and not solely in comments under your own posts). r/Treknobabble is not interested in becoming yet another spot for people to spam content they just put up on YouTube. (If you have questions, please message the mods.)
Memes aren't unwelcome, per se, but they would be more welcome in r/StarTrekMemes. Similarly, we don't want to become a dumping ground for random memes, either.

(In the Star Trek sense of starship… every shuttle or photon torpedo casing with a warp drive is a starship in the real life sense of a ship that can visit another star)
Oh yeah
Halfway through my first watch,
I know it's been said by some Star Trek fans that really monumental projects like building star ships might have some from of monetized value and that any source of fuel presumably cost more energy to replicate then that source produces and thus would still be scarce but do you think authenticity might hold value? Dollar bills are serialized and dated; a copy might be replicated but it would be inauthentic especially so if anti-counterfeit measures just as advanced as the replicator technology.
After Picard, Worf, and Hawke stop the Borg from turning the deflector dish into an antenna, we see three figures in space suits walking on the hull. But there were only the three of them to begin with, and the Borg and Hawke (who was assimilated) all got blasted out into space. Who’s the third figure supposed to be?
I saw someone on YouTube said it was. I skipped that show and I suppose if enough Trekkies did as well It would open up more story opportunities going forward for shows more people are inclined to actually watch.
