Woah.

but then how would a ship not hit a planet or go into a star system then? i think that was the original question...

If you're folding space, it's simply a matter of precisely calculating your exit vector of wherever it is you're folding TO.

If your drive system has caused you to occupy every point on an infinitely long line, then it doesn't matter what you do, you'll hit any object that happens to be in that direction the instant you engage.
 
Ugh. I can't stand Earl Grey. It's like tea-flavoured water.

But then, I like really strong tea. I always use two bags when I brew a cup.
 
:eek:
no earl gray???????

i do like mine strong but i like coffee with 10000 sugars unlike janeway....
 
ahhhhhh.... no it is not true.......

THEY ARE ALL LIES!!!

i have to dump 1/4 cup of sugar in my coffee b4 i can drink it....

who ever told you that is just bs you...
 
I thought it was spelled "whoa."

The Warp scale is like a percentage of infinity, where Warp 10 = 100% Infinite speed.

As opposed to 1% infinite? :lol:
:lol: Well, you know what I mean.

lol yeah because half of inite can have a value xd, lol

it's like I'm going to take an infinite length peice of string, cut it half and it will be so long, doesn't work that way, oh terminology, what are we gonna do, if 10 = infinite and so what the heck is warp 5, 50% infinite...

I get what your saying and warp 10 is infinite but I don't think it works like percentae, cause transwarp is supposed to o past 10, and since you cant go past infinite here how it works..

I read that the warp scale works is set relative to layers, subspace layering, you can only go so fast on one layer, like for example reg space the max is the speed of light, on subspace layer one you can go faster than that but you hit another barrier and have to go to the second supspace layer and so on, now this is why the flipping scale was redone because in TOS, it was based on relative speed and not so much the layers, you need so much energy to reach each layer btw, now heres the thing, each layer has a max speed like reg space is the speed of light, but something stange happens when you get to 10, it's like you break it lol, what happens is , on that layer, the energy needed and the pure speed, it errors out, and you end up going at infinite speed being everywhere at once, but even though thats the speed the weird thing is you don't really move much if at all, cause you'd be an infinite amount of distance away when you stoped, in voyager that didn't happen, also if they are going so fast the exist everywhere in that path when they stop there should be an infinite number of them and shurly they would have hit something but they didn't if they where going that fast they should of, it's weird

like a strecting effect, remember your warping space, so for some reason at warp 10, you strecth it/fold it/warp it ect., and I thing its like a vibration on a rumber band, you strecth it out far enough, let it goe and theres vibrations all the way across the band, and in this cause because of the warp field , only the path there going has this vibrational effect, so it looks like there going somewhere but aren't, and get this, the vibration theory would explain the mution/evolution they went through

so at warp 10, it seems subspace reaches its limit, it maxes out, in fact Transwarp is a generic term for any FTL drive that goes faster than warp 10, (10 not being infinite but infinte cause of error) that prevents this effect, keeping you stable

Transwarp means beyond warp, Trans = to go, to change, to ourney ect.

Warp has its limits subspace maxes out....

so the present warp scale works on energy levels not percent of infinite...

uhh I always though Earl grey was strong as far as teas go, not watery, what kind of earl grey you drinking, or maybe it's me?

I like really really strong tea, favs are Green and Black, now Chai is pretty good,

but to give you an idea, Green tea has that green tent but I like mine strong so it looks like black tea, not the light black tea either, in fact it ends up being dark to where the green tent isn't really there anymore...

and I don't care for sugar for sugar in mine so yeah, I like it strong
 
i like all kinds of tea!!! earl gray is just one of my favs!! but i only like 10,000 sugars in my coffee...

i am really glad that tea is still a fav in trekkies!!
