If they could fit a Jeffries Tube on a Danube, why not the Flyer? The lengths are close to each other.

Hmm, that means then Voyager can carry a Danube Class runabout in her. It seems logical, considering that ship can launch more shuttles than retrieve them.

a Jeffries tube is bad enough, but recall what Tuvok said about how Harry Kim might have evaded capture by the Borg?

An "escape pod?"

Next the damn thing will have a holosuite and auxiliary bridge!

Where is there a Jeffries tube in a runabout?

DS9 Technical Manual.

"A small Jefferies tube is also built into the spine for access to the warp core and other ship systems."

Which of course is only confirming what went on in "Blaze of Glory."

One has to remember that "Jefferies tube" appears to be Starfleet nomenclature for any access conduit, regardless of size.

The species of the leader of the Borg kids wasn't said, but does anyone else think it's the same as the species from "Blink of an Eye"? I may need to watch BoaE again, but I'm pretty sure the facial marking is the same. Also there are two ships inside the Cube. Considering the rate of evolution of that species in our time they could of developed a way to do interstellar travel by now. And when they crew of that ship were assimilated they became insync with our own time.

Anynone find it strange that Voyager's crew didn't take advantage of a working Borg cube for spare parts or components ? Or to take advantage of the two other space crafts that were inside the cube ?

Thank you GP!!!
I sat and watched this ep (on tape) and was screaming to myself "Gas the little brats and take the ship". So maybe they can't run it with 100+ people, but it would have been worth a try. The weapons, the Trans-Warp drive!! What a blown opportunity.

They went through all the hassle to get a transwarp coil from that Sphere in "Dark Frontier" and here they have an entire abandoned Cube. Hell I should think that they'd investigate it, try to repair it and use it. You've got Seven and those Borg kids who have knowledge on how to work the Cube too. Just park Voyager inside and go for a ride.

It's also odd that the Borg would just leave a Cube like that too.

Amen Hobbes. Just keep Voyager inside the cube and use it to get home. No one will be in your way...well most of the time. When you get back to Fed space, just have Voyager tow the cube so you'll look even more heroic.

Thats a really good idea. It should have been thought of. Ofcourse, it would end the show, but, all things must end someday.

I doubt very much that the Voyager crew could run the Borg vessel without connecting themselves to it directly.
