and the U.S.S discovery is straight up just a TARDIS
I still don't understand where they think that infernal powerlift tube labyrinth/endless nightmare dimension is supposed to fit inside the ship.
The scene was originally supposed to take place within the much larger ship that had encapsulated Discovery.
Can they replicate shuttles (or at least most of the parts) ?
That’s why everyone had to always be on replicator rations: Janeway’s coffee addiction and constantly replacing shuttlecraft.
the delta flyer was built from the ground up afaik so I guess they can
They made it out of the infinite shuttles.
And it was designed to be a long range exploration vessel so it makes sense.
But it also has a new untested holodoc and computer and warp nacelle config.
So new long range outside space station repair range and new untested config. Great plan overall.
They had a real doctor, he gets killed in the pilot.
In Prodigy, the USS Protostar has a vehicle replicator that it uses to print shuttles on demand. The Intrepid class was fairly resilient and self-contained, so it's a fair assumption it would have something similar, but we never see one on screen or even directly mentioned.
That's how they built the Delta flyer.
Utopia Planetia during DS9: "Holy shit they wrecked another runabout? We're running out of rivers!"
I've always wondered how they deal with naming stuff like ships and classes and what if they can think of anything
Of course it's not allergic to cheese! Why would someone even think a starship could be allergic to it?
Don't challenge this man, he's got it all planned out
Funny but I mean, come on, large replicators exist in star trek.
I don't know if I'm just crazy or not but I'm pretty sure you can't replicate shuttles like other things because of their complexity, otherwise they could just make a jumbo replicator and pump out starship after starship
You are right, but also wrong. They cant replicate complicated things, but they can replicate parts of complicated things, and then professionals can assemble them. They reference it a few times. They talk about it when they need a new energy source because they are short on supplies, more than just food is mentioned. That and the delta flyer. They assemble to a degree but parts are replicated and assembled. Otherwise they would care about a lot more things than just energy and fuel in the delta quadrant. I think there are a few things that don't qualify, like the warp coils for the entire starship. But even then they can make shitty coils for shuttles I'm pretty sure.
I may be crazy but I feel like there's a scene in enterprise where they are getting repaired at a Starbase and they show a panel get like replicated/transported to place and then it's bolted or welded in after. They do mention that replicators and transporters are almost the exact same a few times so it's hard to tell.
God damnit it's kinda embarrassing how much I know about Star Trek. I use the show as a coping mechanism lol.
Edit: oh shit gel packs too, they couldn't replicate new gel packs.
