/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

It's not all that different to a fax machine, the way it's described in st.

You just need to be able to accurately scan and place atoms to achieve the 'teleportation' being discussed here.

Thinking about it even that is probably not possible, as you'd need to know both the position and momentum and state of every sub atomic particle in the body.

It's definitely not because the more you know about an electrons position, the less you know about it's speed and vice versa.

Heisenberg compensators are Star Trek's answer to that. It's physically impossible to do that in the real world, but in Star Trek they've figured it out

For sure. I wish they would've given that to us instead of the molecule in that movie about the whale. (Sorry I'm not well versed on star trek
