[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] In any case, the trip the Siskos took from Earth to DS9 need not have been limited by the warp 5 rule. It was something of an emergency, after all. So what if a few subspace squirrels get killed by the pollution when the future of the Federation is at stake? If Sisko did the whole trip aboard the Defiant, with a known top speed of warp 9.5 (AFTER O'Brien's tinkering), then we would still have a lower distance estimate than given by Darkstar, but much higher than if we assumed warp 5. And if the Siskos booked passage on a fast courier ship that took <13 days to gap the distance at constant warp 9.9, and the Defiant was sent ahead earlier on at her somewhat lower maximum speed, then we could buy Darkstar's estimate as is. How long did Sisko spend on Earth again between "Jem'Hadar" and "The Search"? We have to remember to count in not just the two weeks from Earth to DS9, but the two weeks in the other direction (assuming Sisko had an equally fast ship for this trip and it was available immediately - which is quite likely, since Starfleet would have been sending in reinforcements to DS9 after the loss of the Odyssey). Did Sisko spend more than a month on his Earth trip? Either Dax or Kira stated the exact time in the beginning of "The Search". Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
