Wait a second...is Frank 170m or 120? I don't trust those VFX

Anyway, is it spaceborne?

Q23: Yes it is spaceborne

Q22: It has been seen, although not all of it.

Q21: Yep, it'd fit in the Spacedock.

So we've got a spaceborne, non-living thing from TNG that'd fit in spacedock. And it was only partially seen on screen. Toughie.

Is it natural?

Is it from the first 4 seasons of TNG?

Hmm...

Is it the Pegasus?

Did it belong to the or was it part of the Federation?

Posted by Montgomery (Member # 23) on :
 
Q17: To my knowledge it was never damaged

Q16: No, it ain't natural. Somebody made it.

Q15: Hmmmm.... It's safe to say you'd have been aware of it's existence (if you were a proper fan! )before season 5 of TNG. Does that help?

Q14: It is not the Pegasus

Q13: It does serve the mighty Federation though, yes!

Choose your questions carefully, not many left!

can you fit more than 100 people inside it comfortably, in a vacuum?

Posted by Montgomery (Member # 23) on :
 
Q12: No. 100 people wouldn't fit.
At least not comfortably, or not without chopping off limbs, utilising a mincing machine or something.

Is it a Federation Shuttlecraft or Shuttlepod?

Well, cutting off limbs wouldn't constitute confortably, now would it?

Something known in the first four seasons of TNG, that'd fit inside spacedock, but holds less than 100 people. Built by the Fed, and never damaged to the best of our knowledge. I have a feeling that that partially seen thing is the key.

Oh, and it's spaceborne, meaning it's a ship, station, or probe of some sort.

Would we have known about it before the beginning of season three?

Anyone know if we ever saw all of the Remler array? That's not a question for you, Monty.

Q11: The thing I am thinking of is an ancillary transportation vessel in Starfleet.

(look at my poker face! )

Q10: Yes, you'd have seen it during season 3. Whether or not you'd know it for what it is remains questionable....

I shall return next at the hour of scampering...

Posted by Omega (Member # 91) on :
 
Well, that's not really what I asked. I asked whether we would have seen it before the beginning of Season 3. Of course, since we now know it was seen DURING S3, that helps. But we can't make the assumption that it wasn't seen before that.

The E-D yacht comes to mind. We only saw the underside of it, and it never suffered damage (well, until the saucer crashed, presumably).

The exec shuttlecraft from "Samaratan Snare" may be another possibility.

Question: is it the E-D's yacht?

AHA!

Well done Omega!!!

It was indeed the Enterprise's yacht the Calypso.

And so it begins again!
