As promised last week a page on board the Enterprise with the crew from ST: The Original Series. The background here is a series of photographs of one reconstruction of the Enterprise Bridge. You see them at Sci-fi Cons usually with a cosplay slave Leia lounging in the captain's chair.  There was originally a more detailed discussion about transport at warp but it was cut.  Honestly the physics behind the transporter are shaky enough let alone matter transmission at warp.  

The Nimoy Spock head is a resin casting I bought and painted and mounted on an extra body.  They really don't make figure bodies as lean as Leonard Nimoy was. And so the story slides merrily along. Can Spock figure out month's of calcaulations in a few hours? Will Kirk get there in time to resuce Rickover and crew? Or will the SIG ladies sieze an oppurtunity to bash in Da-tu's head and rescue themselves?
