[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] Well, we got a few interesting tech tidbits in this episode: -- Perhaps most importantly, we've confirmed that those "Descent"-type-transwarp-conduit-things really ARE FTL engines and not cloaks. Speeds are about right for transwarp, too -- six light-years in a few minutes? Not bad... -- The Xindi shuttle Degra was on had a different nacelle configuration, and used the main deflector to facilitate the transit. -- The MACOs use subdermal transmitters for communication. So how come Starfleet's still not using them for most circumstances two hundred years later? Other points of interest: -- So the Xindi have been working on their superweapon program for "years", eh? That's rather amusing, considering that they basically gave themselves away with that "test" shot. On the other hand, it seems that the Xindi are unaware of the time-travel elements in this situation, for whatever reason. Either way, if they were planning a second weapon, why give away their hand early? -- We "finally" get to see the infamous Regulan bloodworm. Which looked basically like a bunch of rolled-out gelatin with some antennae attached. -- So, what the heck are we supposed to be calling these various Xindi races? "Humanoids" and "Arboreals"? "Primates"? and "Sloths"? These seem kinda inconsistent to me... A couple of requests for people who've got the closed captioning (and a taped copy, of course). I'd like spelling on the following: Kalendra (weapon test site), Inara (Degra's wife), plus his kids' names, Merik III (?). [/QB][/QUOTE]
