[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] Actually, Phelps, we've seen other colored photon torpedoes on Starfleet ships. The Motion Picture had the Enterprise firing a blue torpedo at the asteroid, and The Final Frontier had the Enterprise firing a green (I think, it might have been blue again) torpedo at God. We know for certain that there are two sizes of photon torpedoes. The first is the regular size that we've seen many times as a prop ([i]Generations[/i], "Valiant," "Tears of the Prophets" etc.). The second are the "micro-torpedoes" that the runabouts use. Those are supposed to be fairly tiny in comparison to the regular torpedoes. "Mark" isn't a company name. It's actually a design number. Think of it in terms of computer programs and their version numbers. Windows 3.1 is newer product and more advanced that the 2.2 version. The Mark VII transporters are more advanced and capable of greater resolution than the Mark V transporters (I believe that's how the conversation between Yates and Sisco went). For photon torpedoes, I think we had mention of Voyager's mark number in "Dreadnaught," but I can't remember offhand. We've also seen the mark numbers written on them in [i]Generations[/i] and [i]The Wrath of Khan[/i]. [/QB][/QUOTE]
