[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] There isn't a good explanation. One could make the argument that Starfleet had been tracking the cloud for some time before Epsilon 9 picked up the Klingon squadron's signal. If Starfleet determined that the cloud was going to enter Federation space, he could have used this as the core of his argument to retake command of the Enterprise. However, that explanation can be refuted. If I recall, Kirk comments to both Scotty and (later) McCoy that the cloud is headed to Earth and and he has to stop it. This would mean that he (and Starfleet) knew it was already heading towards Earth so Epsilon 9 wasn't breaking anything new. But, if Starfleet knew the cloud was already coming, then they would have had the time to find another ship to take Kirk out there. It's kind of a mess unless someone can come in here and correct me if I'm wrong about the events or dialogue. [/QB][/QUOTE]
