[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Following on from a thread in [URL=http://flare.solareclipse.net/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=001514]General Discussion[/URL], I pose this issue for debate. The Dominion War is over. The Federation and Starfleet are rebuilt to the point that it can once again concentrate on exploring the galaxy. Assuming that during the war most exploration and scientific missions were put on hold (as was seen to be true in "One Little Ship", "The Sound of Her Voice" et. al.), how would Starfleet go about getting back to business? And what would change in Federation exploration policy? Obviously, the "norm" as presented in TNG and the early seasons of DS9 would probably never be restored. But what would change? Is the notion of "one ship, alone out there" still tenable? Would there, or should there, be multiple ships on a single mission? Shorter duration (and range) missions? Why or why not? The point is, in all the talk we've had on the post-War period, rarely do we seriously speculate about the whole exploration thing that defines Trek in the first place - it's all about beefing up the territory we know and have won back, to ensure it doesn't happen again. So, what would you do? Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
