[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] I think the idea here is that the Medusans don't have their "own" ships because they never developed them for themselves. Being incorporeal I suppose the idea of using lumps of metal to travel between stars was as unthinkable to them as sitting in free floating clouds of ionised gas to go out jogging would seam to us. I suppose the usual benchmark of warp capability equals first contact needs to be sidestepped when dealing with incorporeal beings. Makes you wonder what their home planet would be like and how first contact was initiated. I'd speculate that their homeworld is a Gas Giant and that they're perfectly capable of interstellar travel under their own power (as are most wibbly light beings we've seen) though travel in starships is faster and safer than "walking" it, to say nothing of the safety of any passing humanoid that happened to look at them.
