      It’s easier to list whatever harry out ranks, which I think is a stembolt on an upper pylon on Empok Nor.

        We’re working on promoting that Stem Bolt. It recently got an excellent recommendation from Admiral Janeway.

    At least they’re not in charge of cleaning out the holodeck, that place has to be pretty rough

      Someone wrote log entries for the holodeck technician like 20 years ago… They were quite funny. Can’t remember where I saw them.

    I would be super dissapointed to learn that they figured out FTL travel and the ability to simply materialise food and all the other amazing technological feats but still hadn’t automated cleaning yet. I godamn hate cleaning.

    Given that they have the ability to select pretty much whatever material they want with the transporters, I imagine it wouldn’t be too hard for them to do a once a day transport for all dust/debris particles directly into space, or some containment unit of their choosing. Same goes for pretty much any other cleaning task.

      It is mentioned in that one episode where they have a small village of “back to the land” type people staying in the cargo bay, along with their farm animals that they don’t have to keep sweeping up all the time, the bays will clean themselves. They just have to stop lighting cooking fires.

        That actually makes me think, would it theoretically be possible to automate ship repair with transporter technology? All the time they have ships coming in with giant chunks missing.

        If you are able to get a high resolution scan of the current state of the vessel, and have the plans to build it, couldn’t they set up a specialized transporter to transport the damaged bits away, and transition area that is destroyed, and then replace it with new parts as needed?

        Basically do some a similar repair method from Space Engineers, just fancier with transporters.

    Is that the Paramount set or is that Star Trek The Experience? A lot of the proportions seem off.

      At the very least, the headrests are wrong and the carpet is the wrong color*. Probably the latter.

      (* maybe it looks “right” on those novelty VHS recordings you get at the end of the experience?)
