Hmm what was the name of the star that LUG said Andoria orbited? Anyone? Anyone?

- We see a closeup of a star map! Andorian's live in the ANDORIAN EMPIRE, and Vulcan territory is labelled VULCANIAN SPACE.

- What an elegant way to get rid of that awful 'Stigma'-story. Well done.

- Andorians have transporters. I don't know if this was mentioned before.

- Did Soval mention the City of Gol? As in the Stone of Gol?

- Who was the Vulcan agent? He served under T'Pol once. Are we supposed to know him? Was he one of the 'Seven'?

- In fact, he served under T'Pol in the 'Tomed mission'!

- Apparently, Mount Seleya is on the opposite side of the Forge from the Capital, and also within (Vulcan) walking distance.

- Those Andorian shuttles/fighters/corvettes/whatever.. that was a new design, wasn't it?

- If the Kir'Shara is the original work of Surak, then what about the "Teachings of Surak" book Archer gave to T'Pol waaaaaay back on Risa?

"Tomed mission" suggests a place named Tomed, which sort of negates David George III's attempt at an explanation. Unless IRW Tomed was named after this place, that is.

"Teachings of Surak" probably bears the same relationship to the actual teachings of Surak as the Bible does to those of Jesus... It may also be the abbreviated edition for children and humans.

Given how fast Vulcan ships are, choosing Regulus as their Sullust makes sense even if the target is Procyon. The minor sidestep won't significantly delay the fleet or anything, and Regulan bloodworms probably are easy to tell from Andorian spies.

Vulcan commandoes with mini-lirpas... Newer-generation Trekkies will probably see the thin green Elven line at Mount Doom. We old codgers rejoice for a different reason.

And I just grabbed my copy of "Among the Clans" Doughboy05 [Razz]

They call it "Kuy'va" in Andorian, and Andoria in Federation standard. No relation with any real star, and they guessed it is 274 light years away from Sol. Take it with a Kilimanjaro of salt.

Take a look at this. To the lower right of NX-01.

Or here, behind the big cruiser.

And the complete fleet: four cruisers, two smaller vessels, and NX-01.

Why the hell does it look like the Whitestar?

Helpful http://hyperspace.isnnews.net

Hmmmm,
I can kinda see how the nose section is very marginally similar to the Excalibur but a Whitestar? ?

OTOH, wasn't this the book that Sussman and Coto have read and (partly) used for the Babel-arc?

Anyone else notice the (presumably) Andorian text on V'las' falsified recording of the Xindi weapon?



Have we seen this before? If nothing else, it seems that they read right-to-left, since the text is right-justified, and it appeared on the screen in that direction. Bottom-to-top, too, if that means anything.

The telemetry is on the screen upside-down, so they probably read "normally".

It looks to me, like they took the standard Andorian ship and made it 'thinner' and took the pods off of the wings. That's a pretty easy way to mod a CGI ship.

Tomed was mentioned in the TNG episodes "The Neutral Zone" and "The Pegasus". Some kind of incident occured there between the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire.
