/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

It can be from any series, and if you want to pick a favorite from each show go ahead.

Picture very much related.

I love when Sci fi shows do the "person gets super duper smart" episodes.

Star trek and Stargate are my two favorites with this trope.

"No problem. Here's how you build one..." always makes me chuckle.

I think my all time favourite line from Stargate is when Carter explains the Uncertainty Principle to an advanced alien who replies "oh yes, one of the misconceptions of simple physics".

The Tollan

They BUILT their own fancy STARGATE since their new planet didn't have one.

I believe Carter was explaining why she named the cat "Schrodinger", and started bringing up the whole "quantum superposition" and "string theory" and that's when he gives the little chuckle and says the line.

The Tollan didn't deserve what they got but holy shit were they arrogant AF
