    Maybe the last bit is disgusting, much like certain earth beverages, and the cup is to protect you from the dregs?

      And you don’t even have to worry about cleaning that part. Just stick it back in the replicator.

    My friend has one of these mugs! We call it the troll mug because the last sip is always bigger than you think and ends up all over you

    Maybe it’s for a drink that has a lot of sediment or something, there are beers that do that. That’s my headcanon

      I think it’s a nautical design. The wide base keeps it steady on ships. Hence why it’s used in Star Trek.

      They’re all just throwing back mugs of beer in the mornings while running the space station.

    I’d have thought that the cylinder part was hallow. But the bottom part was solid. Thus. Seperate your hot beverage from your surface - be it table, hand, lap. No need to hold on to it if it’s not hot on the bottom.

    You laugh, but you’ll wish you had one of these when you lose your inertial stabilizers! You’ll go flying through the bridge viewscreen, but that mug will sit there watching it happen.
