/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

TOS s2e6 "The Doomsday Machine" and VOY s5e14 "Bliss"

Telepathic Pitcher Plant

The telepathic pitcher plant was approximately two thousand kilometers wide, and contained large amounts of bioplasmic energy.

Planet Killer

So, the giant cone is slightly larger in overall length than just the width of the "face" on the giant ship devouring mouth.

No, the space whales would eat Farpoint Stations, obviously. Crystalline Entities would be preyed upon by giant space otters.

On a related note, I am now imagining Crystalline Entities wearing hats.

Oh jeez, I really must be high! I don't know what I was thinking; space whales would eat space plankton, not space jellyfish. It's chelys galactica that would eat Farpoint cnidarians.

Now, which of these things is most plankton-like?

Now, hang on a minute. Picard introduced its own brand of space faring "chum":

But, for arguments' sake and our own personal gratification, let's assume the space whales require certain nutrients that are only locally available from crystalline entities.
