Kirk's 17 Temporal Violations

Recommended Posts

Did we even See all of them??

 

Name all the ones you know of :rolleyes:

I think that they only ACTUALLY travelled back in time 6 times throughout the series and movies.

 

Tomorrow is Yesterday - 20th Century Earth

The City on the Edge of Forever - Again 20th Century Earth

Assignment Earth - 20th Century Earth

All our Yesterdays - the past of the planet Sarpeidon

 

The Voyage Home - 20th Century Earth

Generations - Kirk goes into the 24th Century

 

There are multiple episodes, though, where the crew find themselves on planets which LOOK LIKE Earth's past.

 

The Squire of Gothos - Napoleonic era

The Return of the Archons - Wild West era

Who Mourns for Adonais - Ancient Greece

Catspaw - Medievel era

A Piece of the Action - 1920s gangster era

Patterns of Force - Nazi Germany

Bread and Circuses - Roman Empire era

The Paradise Syndrome - Native American America

Spectre of the Gun - again Wild West era

Plato's Stepchildren - again, Ancient Greece era

 

I think episodes like this created the illusion that the crew were always going back in time, but they werent really. If we think about it, the TNG crew have done a fair bit in their time, but i'll leave that up to someone else to try to document

 

Laters, k

Ive just thought, maybe there were several 'temporal violations' commited within each time jump. Eg, they went back in time just the once but did several prohibited things

 

In the Voyage Home, for example, there could be:

 

selling Kirk's glasses

taking the wales back

taking that scientist woman back

giving away the formula to transparent aluminium

 

There are four at least, from one time leap.

It was still Kirk's mission though.

But it was Scotty, and Bones was in on it too.

Yes but when the temporal detectives said that KIRK was responsible for the violations, maybe they meant as a commander. He led the missions so the actions of his officers were under his responsibility....

Hi,

I agree with prometheus.  I remember at least the four he mentioned.

Me too, I remember the four he mentioned.

I remember at the end, Kirk took all the responsability of the action of his crew...

 

That may be why they were all attribuate to him
