[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jack_Crusher: [QB] I take back what I said about Woodside. I thought he meant nuclear reactions as in fission and fusion nuclear reactions, not other types of nuclear reactions. I have read in the January 2001 of Star Trek: The Magazine, that the fusion reactors that power the impulse engines use proton-antiproton fusion reactions for power, and in a diagram on page 44, there is an antimatter storage pod on the right side of the page. So, at least from technical drawings I've seen, when the warp core exploded, the antimatter tanks directly below it were vaporized, creating a more powerful explosion, and the the antimatter pods in the impulse engines in the battle hull were vaporized, adding to the explosion(s). And then, probably the stored photon torpedoes also exploded, since they too contain antimatter. So it is reasonable that the Enterprise's battle hull could have been completely destroyed by the core breach. [/QB][/QUOTE]
