[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] As I recall, the Yamato's search for Iconia began as your average research mission. Varley's "reckless" decisions didn't begin until it became clear that Iconia might be within the Neutral Zone and might reasonably be believed to still contain Iconian artifacts and technologies. His decision to pursue the search was based on the concern of Iconian technology falling into Romulan hands. Now, on the one hand, this was ultimately a bad decision, as it led to the destruction of his ship. But his concerns about Iconia, specifically that it could pose a grave security threat to the Federation, do not seem unreasonable to me, and this is the kind of snap decision that Starfleet captains would appear to be entrusted with by the UFP.
