Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

They rolled a 20 for foresight when they called the ship lost in the Delta Quadrant "Voyager."

No matter how far from home, Voyagers know how to get back to Earth somehow.

It's a testament to simplicity. Any of our current hardware infra would have just been fuuuuuucked out there.

I like to think that the ghost in the machine emerged after the glitch. Maybe a small spark caused by the glitch. Coincidentally Voyager was flying through a Interplanetary dust cloud , loaden with cosmic partcles, one particle was touched by the spark and voila: a new lifeform is created.

Flying forever alone in space.

Literally the plot of Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
