[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sean: [QB] Well...if the Kelvin were a colony ship, as suggested, or even the scout ship/cruiser protecting a convoy of colony ships...that could be where the 800 people figure comes from. The Kelvin busied the Narada long enough to not only allow her own crew to get away (possibly 200-300), but to allow the other ships in the convoy to clear the area. That "lightning storm in space" could have been reason enough to keep the other ships in a safe position away from the anomaly, while the Kelvin investigated, perhaps being the best armed and equipped ship in the convoy. Also, that could explain how the rather slow moving shuttles (with no indication thus far that they have warp drive) escaped. With the Narada temporarily crippled, they went back to wherever the other ships were, were picked up, and the remainder of the convoy (now without a significant chunk of it's escort, assuming that the Kelvin was either the only escort ship, or the most powerful) warped back to Earth, or the nearest Starfleet base. Following this explanation, and the Kelvin having a crew of only 200 or so, the 35 shuttles could have easily evacuated the crew. [/QB][/QUOTE]
