[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] Either way, I'm not sure it's even possible to beam a black hole. The practical problems like getting one on the pad without imploding the whole ship aside, I doubt a transporter beam is capable of ripping apart the atoms of a super-compressed singularity, never mind reassembling them. If you're going to use contained singularities as a weapon, it'd be more practical to use them as mines, where they won't indiscriminatly suck your own ship into oblivion or if you really want to commit a war crime, they'd be devistating in a planetary bombardment. To be honest, I can see more peaceful applications for such a devise. Like ignighting a gas giant into a star to bring new life to a dying system. Or to cleanly obliterate a rogue moon on a collision course before it enters an inhabited system. Of course there is the small problem of what to do with the black hole after you've used it. One might assume that the artificial singularities that the romulans use cannot sustain themselves without some form of containment field, hence us not seeing black holes sprout everytime we've seen a Warbird blow up.
