[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Wich is still, of course, idiocy. At leat in as much as it would take a single Planetkiller centuries to consume a whole planetary mass....big as it is, it's damn tiny on a planetary scale. I [i]can[/i] however see the PK's beam destabiliziing a planet's core, causing it's destruction, then "consuming" the super-dense core for conversion to antimatter (and possibly converting excess into more neutronium hull, making the whole thing larger or repairing damage). The other odd misconception in fandom is that the PK can not move at FTL speeds- were that so, there would have been thousands of years to prepare between threatened worlds. Smething not tried in the episode (and possible with a couple of starships) would be to make the PK chase a starship endlessly- "distracting" it untill a population could be evacuated or additional reenforcments could arrive. Hmmm...I ownder if Starfleet developed any sort of anti-planetkiller weapon- prahaps a big antimatter tanker, remotely operated to zip down it's belly and blow up. [/QB][/QUOTE]
