What's that?"<br /><br />Uh, dude, everyone knows that warp drive uses antimatter interacting with matter to function. The energy released during a matter/antimatter collision is not unlike what happens inside a nuclear reactor. The fusion of atoms creates energy which can be channeled and used by humans. Same goes with Star Trek matter/antimatter collisions.<br /><br />Once you accept some of the basic ideas in Trek, the psychobabble actually makes sense.<br /><br />Mostly.<br /><br />Some of it is just horseshit, but I wouldn't call this reviewer any kind of expert, since he picked on some cases that make absolute sense in the context of the Trek universe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
