[QUOTE]Originally posted by The359: [QB] This one has been bugging me for a while, but I've never gotten around to posting it. As some of you remember, it was put in I believe Star Trek: The Magazine some design sketches of how the Sovereign's yacht would drop from the bottom of the main torpedo launcher on the unside of the saucer for Insurrection. In these sketches, we can see the bay inside, and part of the torpedo launcher. Unfortunatly, what we do see of the torpedo launcher, is the very front, where the torpedo exits the ship. This picture shows that the launcher briefly turns downward at about a 45 degree angle, then returns to horizontal before the end. Now, the question is, how could a torpedo, which would be at tremendous speed at that point in the launch sequence, suddenly change direction like that inside the tube? I think that this Yacht bay thing needs a lot more thinking out. [/QB][/QUOTE]
