[QUOTE]Originally posted by Treknophyle: [QB] Referencing the 'reverse exhaust' discussion. 1- A close look at the ventral surface of the E-e's impulse bays shows 4 rectangular vents - which I interpret to be reverse-direction thrust ports. 2- However - I must disagree with the argument that a force field-based thrust reveral nozzle would be ineffective: a- The plasma would be vented forward at high speed. b- There is a verifiable degree of 'momentum feedback' with shields (if a meteor of bolt of energy hits the external shields, the ship as a whole is shaken. I assume that the momentum is transferred back to the generators (which therefore must be braced and welded down). [/QB][/QUOTE]
