I wonder if ST:TNG actually coined the term “nanite.” It was certainly the first place I remember hearing the word.

According to OED, the oldest reference is a 1990 issue of Cinefantastique According to Memory Alpha, the episode “Evolution" aired Septemner 25, 1989.

Chances are pretty good that the magazine article was about that Next Gen episode.

*The form stabilizing, the fox shaped nanite form looks out from the teal orb and looks quizzativley at themself, as they piece together what has happened...*

So Sierra has a set of strange critters made of nanites that I had been thinking to see what Will would look like, and taking a Dono Doodle on monday this came the result. This would basically timed to right after the orbs have formed his default form, as Will is piecing together what has happened and likely tries to figure out what to do from here.

Les termites métalliques / Metal termites / 金属シロアリ #詩 #poem #nanites

mon vieux vaisseau était passablement usé
par des nanites encore constamment réparé
et ces termites de métal partout sont allées
ses pièces défectueuses elles ont dévorées
là que leur surface elles n'ont alors laissées
car les parties internes elles ont remplacées
mon vaisseau il en serait à 99.9% composé
ainsi ses générateurs je ne dois pas arrêter
car là ses nanites en ont besoin pour opérer-

Who would have thought that leasing inmates from horny jail could be so mutually beneficial. I am certainly no snake coil saleswoman and offer only the best care to my charges, even if I charge them up with Praxis Nanites.
