Would anything preclude a 2279 TMP?

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] We can be more specific than 18 months. Decker says that Kirk hasn't logged "a single star-hour in two and a half years." Elsewhere Kirk says he spent "five years out there, dealing with unknowns." Though no one says "since your five year mission, which ended two and a half years ago," the film gives us very little wiggle room for any other interpretation. Having said that, from just the evidence presented in the film itself, and assuming for some reason that Decker cannot possibly have overestimated how long ago Voyager 6 was launched, and taking the only two data points the film gives us (Voyager 6 being launched in the late 20th century, which means between 1977 and 2000, and it being launched over three hundred years ago, meaning, let us say, between 300 and 350 years.) We get a possible date which ranges between 2277 and 2350. Of course, taking all the canon data into account, including that bit from Voyager about Kirk's famous mission ending in 2270, we have to conclude, or so it seems to me, that the film takes place sometime in 2272 or '73.
