If you really squashed them in there, how many Worfs could you fit inside a Galaxy-class starship? Asking for my graduate dissertation for Starfleet Academy.

    That depends: does this include inside the transporter buffers?

      He solved this already. It was a mole of moles instead of a galaxy class starship of Worfs, but the science is the same. It’s gonna smell.

    One. Multiple Worfs would battle to the death, Highlander-style.

    Just look at Riker. When his transporter clone showed up, they couldn’t even coexist in Starfleet, let alone in one ship. And he’s human!

      In theory you could fit two if you did a saucer separation. (One gets the saucer, the other gets the stardrive.) In practice, they would still duel to the death over which one gets the battle bridge, which is obviously more honorable.

      There can be only one.

    Depends on which Galaxy-class starship, and also depends on if the Worfs are standing shoulder to shoulder, vs. being stacked like a multitude of inert Data’s

    Are there any rules or parameters to follow?

    If not, then we can render the Worfs into a liquefied state and pour the Worf liquid into the star ship until liquid Worf comes pouring out the top.

    And if we’re really pushing the envelope, we can also pressurize the liquid and pack in even more Worf liquid until the star ship explodes from the pressure

      Considering starships exist in the vacuum of space, I expect the hull should be able to handle at least 1atm pressure differential!

      Haha, I didn’t mean in liquid form. I was thinking more in living solid form, as usual.

      But Worf is 99% honour, which doesn’t compress.

    Can we pulp the Worfs down into more of a Worf slurry and fill the Enterprise with that? We can give each of them a warrior’s death first if we need to.

      If we tell them to fight the pulper, that’s dying in honorable battle
