[QUOTE]Originally posted by Capt_Frank_Hollister: [QB] True. Star Trek, and most people's intuitions for that matter, generally apeal to an "objective" reference frame which doesn't really exist. I think that that object reference frame is itself a "Plot Device," as you call it. If you want, you could call the subspace field this this objective reference frame. In many way the subspace field has always been analogous to the theorized (and disproven) "ether." Star Trek basically renamed it and started assigning all kinds of magical properties to it.
