/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

spoilerIt's two Romulan warbirds. I'm sure someone else can back me up for the non-believers.

How do Fireworks in Space work again?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

They work by shut up and watch that's how.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Fireworks work by igniting metals and salts using gunpowder. All those components should work in a vacuum.

Usually the propellant and other combustion materials will include an oxidizer, so an atmosphere really isn't required.

I don't know how the Cardassians would do it, but Starfleet would just put colored gunpowder in a torpedo casing.

That's how I'd want them to dispose of me, if I died in the Star Trek universe. I mean, they already launch some of their dead people into space, in torpedo-casings. Just pack as much gunpowder as you can, around my corpse, and set that shit to detonate.

How come the Sun stays lit even though there's no oxygen in space? O.o
