@jvschrag And when you pedal, it's spaghetti powered!

@ryanhg Like Garak, I also have a vent that I've put a magnetic plastic deflector on. It's cheap to pick up at the hardware store and easy to stick on the vent!

@jvschrag No kidding! I'd even say they're not really Star Trek at all, just Trek-themed action films.

Update: The Vulcan Science Council declined to comment on whether any of their members ever served as science advisors for any of the series or movies. But to our surprise, we received an official response from the Expeditionary Group! They reassured us -- at great length -- that they faithfully followed the non-interference guidelines before Earth achieved its own warp drive. Reading between the lines, I think there are some non-Star-Trek sci-fi they want to make sure they don't get blamed for?

I'm used to science-fiction writers screwing up orbital mechanics (sigh...). But seriously, people, even Wile E. Coyote had more realistic falling scenes!!

In Star Trek: Into Darkness, the Enterprise has lost all system power and is plummeting towards Earth. [let's overlook how they forgot to park in a halfway decent orbit...] Artificial gravity is off. As the ship tumbles, everyone and everything keeps falling "down" whichever way is towards Earth. Cue the dramatic scenes of tumbling off catwalks, plunging to one's doom, running along what's normally the wall. None of which would even remotely happen in freefall!

@jonobie @kuow_bot @Wham Very cool! Thanks!
