Given it happened accidently to William T Riker and W Thomas Riker, it could certainly happen on purpose. Tuvix didn't have the combined mass of Tuvok and Nelix, so the extra matter required to reconstitute them both came from somewhere. One could reduce the notion of a transporter down to a scanner digitizing a document, wirelessly transmitting the document, and printing the document. As long as the printer has paper and ink, you could replicate the document ad infinitum. There is already a massive philosophical debate about whether transporters are mass murder devices and/or whether the rematerialized "you" is actually the same "you" as the dematerialized "you".

To be fair, Chief O'Brien also met a similar fate. The original died in an alternate future and his parallel self came back to the present. Also, it's debatable which ship was technically the original. After all, only the undamaged Voyager was reachable by the Vidians. Were they the original or the copy? Does it matter? After all, events such as the Year of Hell or Voyager crashing into an ice planet muddy the waters even more. Remember the episode where Tom and Captain Janeway got sent back in time to before a cataclysmic event only to find that the crew trying to rescue them caused the disaster in the first place? Theoretically, that Janeway and Paris are still on that planet because stopping their rescue prevented the cataclysm, cutting them off from their timeline and leaving them stranded. (Alternate timelines must persist so that any information that changes the past can still exist once the flow of time is altered. See Kelvin Timeline/Universe not erasing the continuing Prime Timeline/Universe as evidence.)

No mention of Course:Oblivion, where a pool of weird liquid encountered in a previous episode formed a perfect copy of the entirety of Voyager, its contents, and its crew. The ship and crew began to degrade at a rapid rate, and its only about halfway through that they and the audience finds out what's going on that they are all just copies. Ultimately, the copy crew all died horribly and the ship exploded before they could get back to their home planet. The worst part? A buoy intended to tell their story was attempted to be launched toward the real Voyager as it came close, but failed so no trace of them was ever found. A weird premise to be sure, but a tear-jerked and asks the classic persistent Trek question "what is the measure of a man?"

Seems highly likely that the Borg now know about all he knew, and now they know not only does your crew have in-depth knowledge about it, the Borg know the star system where someone came very, very close to engineering it. Thanks Janeway, not only did you condemn them to a slow death by removing their energy supply, they're probably all now getting Mechano bolted onto their skulls.

Don’t misunderstand, Discovery, Lower Decks, Prodigy, and now Strange New Worlds along with the Kelvin Trek are awesome and I greatly enjoy those shows but for me there is just something about TNG, DS9, and Voyager that makes those shows the best of the Trek. Threshold on the other hand is also representative of something that happened quite a bit back then, which is when you have to come up with what turned out to be what a couple thousand episodes between the series your gonna end up with some rather interesting ones but this whole “warp 10 hyper-evolves one into a salamander” is truly bonkers for so many reasons but the problem I always had and was reminded of is this, did anyone else feel like it was regression instead of evolution?

The doctor didn't adopt a child on that temporal world he actually spawned a child with the native woman on that temporal world

Tuvix needed to go. Killing 2 people to save 1 person, who never should have existed, would have been wrong.

Warp Ten always confused me. Every other ship in all the other Star Treks Exceeded Warp 10 multiple times with out becoming Lizards . If they Wanted Lizard people there were other times in Star Trek where Lizards happened. Though if we are talking messed up Trek I just remembered some messed up times in DS9. Point is Voyager had ways of getting home sooner, they just needed more Reginald Barclay He could have made the ship go incredibly fast AND turned in to a Lizard AND had sex with a dutiful women and still had time to do like half the rest of this list.

I think one of the books explain that they changed the measurements of warp threshold post-TOS.

@Plush.Hunter9 ай бұрын
@@Yattien89 I know but I don't think you would rename an adopted child. And "Jason" is a very "earth" name, considering his holodeck son had the same name. So the scene implies that it's actually his.

I'll defend Voyager all day long, maintain it's better than TNG (seriously, binge watch both, TNG is shockingly inconsistent in quality) and still think it's more "mature" than all Trek, save maybe DS9 because of the silly in some cases. Elogium is a good example, TNG did the stuck in space swarm thing, the organisms were 2D and psychic or something. Which is more ridiculous, horny space whales or 2d lifeforms? I mean it's closer than I'd like but..... All that said, TNG being the least of Trek (IMO) before '09 is still better than 99% of anything else. TNG also pretty much proved Tuvix didn't have to die for us to get Tuvok back. I mean, Tom Riker, Picard that one time, Kirk. If it's a case of two out of three......
