The president's idea is right, and possible. Cochrane departed Alpha Centauri in 2117 at age 87 only 37 years earlier that present day "Enterprise". Crash lands on planetoid in Gamma Canaris system meets the "Companion" which begins to re-juvenate him-(so James Cromwell could reprise his role in a guest appearance) What a Blast of a Show that Would Be!!!!!) And Archer could end up doing the same thing Kirk did-Leave him be and not report it.

Most of Star Trek deels with the Officers of the various Starships, we know that the officers come from Starfleet Acadamy-a 4 year College. My question is what's the "story" behind the enlisted crew? Where do they get their training, how long is an enlistment, and what exactly is the ranking system for them-besides simply being Crewman x?

Old soldiers never die-they just fade away. He should die quietly, his artificial heart failing, while playing his flute before his Earl Gray is cold, and just after having gotten laid.

Saw a report the other day, that scientists are close to finishing a chip that can be attached to the back of the retina-allowing the blind to see, and also could include infer-red vision.

Archer stated in the "Hatchery" that his Great-Grandfather fought in the Eugenics War-Eugenics War was established as ended by 1996-"Space Seed"(TOS).

The year is 2154, if we assume Archer is 40 years old, that would put his birthdate around 2114? and if we assume his father was around the age of 30 years old when Archer was born-that would mean Archer's father was born around 2084-(making it hard to work with Zefram Cochrane-as he would already be 54 years old when Archer's father is born!). If we assume again that Archer's grandfather was again around 30ish when Archer's father was born-that yields a conjectural date of 2054-for his Grandfather's birthdate-and one more generation back would give his Great Grandfather's birthdate as 2024-too late for the Eugenics War!. Can anyone work out a mathematical formula, that makes practical sence and allows his great-grandfather to fight in a war which ended n 1996? Or did B&B decide to move the Eugenics War to a later date in the StarTrek chronology?

Anyone remember how n TOS, if you set your phasor to kill, it would completely vaporize a person, I think it would be real cool to see a up-dated special efffect like n the "old days" were the bad guy got completely vaporized! anyone else thnk so?

Find a preacher...take large tank of water...and u can be "born Again"...if that doesn't count for time travel.....i don't know what does :blink:

They made a sequel to that movie-the philadelphia experiment II :)

I was just there last week, sure would have liked some company, come on u guys get your butts up here! No seriously, we could have gone to mars n 1965, Saturn by 1970-research it-Project Orion, Project Daedalus, NERVA(Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Application), VASIMR(Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket)! Let's Go! :)

Mike, we could have been on Mars by 1965 with enough gear and tools to have already started that terra-forming mission-if Project Orion had been funded. The British Interplanetary Society's Daedalus project would have been even better! You can read all about it at http://www.islandone.org/Propulsion/ProjectOrion.html

A friend recently make this claim-true or false? :)

I know that in the real world, Gene Roddenberry copied the registry number from his plane tail number, but some "meaning" has to be assigned to it. Example : the U.S. Navy assigns designations like CVN for aircraft carrier nuclear, SSBN for Ballistic Missile Submarine nuclear-so what have the Trek minds came up with for NCC? While I'm on the subject- U.S.S.- i've heard the enterprise called United Space Ship, United Star Ship, United stellar Ship-which is the correct designation?

Should Archer be Re-Called to Earth for Court-Marshall?

In last ep he lost control of the Ship, lost Vital data that could mean the destruction of earth, and his ship was used to make war on another race.

First off, I thought Reed had alreadly advised the Capt. about not allowing visitors to roam around the ship-they should never been allowed near Engineering, or the Command Center. As for the Computer and the Xindi data-computer should have been encrypted, and backed-up, and transmitted to earth-incase the Enterprise was lost. WHAT KIND OF SHIP IS ARCHER RUNNING ANYWAY!
