[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] I did postulate before I saw the movie that some of the differences (ie ship and costume designs) that appeared to have been in place prior to Nero's arrival would be a result of some or all of the Trek-Prime being negated or altered. For example, the Cetacean probe is probably still on it's way, so assuming that will be dealt with in a similar manner then George, Gracie and Dr Taylor may have still disappeared from the late 80s, the the precise circumstances would be different (for one thing Spock would not have recently visited Mt Selaya.) On the other hand, the Sisko (if he's ever born) may never find himself in the middle of the Bell riots so if you looked Gabriel Bell up in the Trek-Secundus he may not necessarily look like Avery Brooks. It's all very complicated and there's no way you can pick at all the strands and make it ALL work, especially when you try and factor in the mirror universe. I can only theorise that since the Prime and Prime-Mirror universes are so oddly entangled that when one of them make a "quantum split" they both split, which would mean that the Secundus universe would have it's own slightly different mirrored companion universe. One where Empress Sato still took power with the Defiant, but a Defiant from the Secundus that looks like the Secundus NCC-1701. Whether or not the Terran Empire falls because of Kirk's advise to Mirror-Spock remains to be seen. And now I have a question; was George Kirk Jr Jim's older or younger brother? if the latter then neither he or by extension Peter would exist in this universe. An older brother certainly wasn't mentioned, but could still conceivably have existed off-screen. A few more consequences that occur to me: - [list] [*]Any Vulcan character alive in this period or born afterwards may now never have existed, though there's only a handful of notable examples. [/list] [list] [*]I was going to mention Tuvok, but he wasn't born on Vulcan, so it's possible his parents survived. [/list] [list] [*]Carol Marcus and David may or may not still be in Kirk's future, therefore the event's of TWoK may still play out similarly, though as I mentioned before, the Katra would have to be refused on New Vulcan (or whatever they end up calling the colony.) [/list] [list] [*]It seams unlikely that Pike ever visited Talos IV. [/list] [list] [*]Kirk may end up trapped in the nexus indefinitely. [/list] [/QB][/QUOTE]
