[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [qb] I dunno, Mim. The deflector looks fine to me. I do see a little bit of pixellation on the main sensor dish, though... --Jonah [/qb][/QUOTE]Funny you should make such an attempt at hair splitting, as I was recently re-reading Whitfield & Roddenberry's [i]The Making of Star Trek[/i] and found this interesting quote from page 191: <blockquote>[i]"The starship's [b]main sensor-deflector (a parabolic sensor antenna and asteroid-deflector)[/b] is located at the front end of the secondary hull."[/i]</blockquote> So technically, we're both correct. I found it quite interesting that even this earliest of sources pegged the dish as pulling "double duty" as both a sensor and deflector, which is exactly the same kind of role that's been postulated for it in more recent times by fans seeking to reconcile the tech of TOS with modern Trek. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
