[QUOTE]Originally posted by Futurama Guy: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sorak: [qb] Playing the Devil's Advocate for a moment... [QUOTE] [b] System J-25 was "only" 7,000 or so light-years from Federation space, about two years travel time to the nearest Starbase at maximum warp... [/b] [/QUOTE]If Voyager was 70,000 light-years away from Earth, and it would take them 70 years to reach home at maximum warp, wouldn't it be only logical that 1 year = 1000 light-years? This would put the Ent-D's trip time at 7 years. [/qb][/QUOTE]Not sure what you are getting at here. Data specifically said it would take them the 2+ year time frame to get to the nearest Starbase. IIRC, they were 7000 light years from were they were, not from the Starbase...regardless the information about Voyager + lightyears never held water. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sorak: [qb] [QUOTE] [qb] ...the orbit would be lower than stationary, not higher... [/qb] [/QUOTE]As mentioned in the most recent Enterprise episode, very large objects tend to look closer than they actually are. Especially from space. And, even compared to the Soverign class starship, Earth is still pretty honkin' big. It would be almost impossible to ascertain a set altitude from just looking at the shots. [/qb][/QUOTE]I believe they were talking about something [b]2000[/b] light years across...not something as minute as a planet... [/QB][/QUOTE]
