Indeed... [Not that we should redo it, but that it appears far too often...] |

How come the original Enterprise could do warp 14 when we know that warp 10 is infinity?....Ok that was decades ago and we now B&B came up with new guidelines....nitpickers...

Which episode was that established in?
If it was 'Tomorrow is Yesterday' I'm not sure that the gravitational pull of the sun added to the propulsion of the engines really counts...........

In addition the Enterprise once went at warp 21, I believe...
Afraid I cannot remember the episode title...

Enterprise D?
Would that have been 'Where No One' (courtesy of the Traveller) or 'Q-Who' (the meet the Borg episode)?

No, the NCC 1701... Basically the ship was hijacked, and they headed towards, and possibly through, the galactic barrier, at warp 21...

Ah yes, 'Where No Man'
The second pilot episode when Gary Mitchell and Elizabeth Dehner have their latent psionic powers enhanced by the force at the edge of the galaxy.

That was what I thought at first... But I am not entirely sure that it was...
*Looking through reference book at the moment*

Ho Hum...
Ok, a little reading revealed the following...
The Enterprise 1701 went at warp 11 in "the Changeling", and in "By Any Other Name".
It went at warp 14.1 in "That which survives"...
There may have been other incidents, but these are all I could find at short notice...
Basically, Gene wanted to change the system at the beginning of TNG, to define an upper limit of Warp 10... It was rationalised as a recalibration of the scale by Starfleet at the time... [Of course, this must have happened once more, as the USS Pasteur travels at warp 13 in AGT...]

StarTrek.com's synopses are no help.  Some are very brief indeed. For that sort of detail we'd need to watch the episode again, methinks. Or scan UT's brain.......... edit - we posted just about simultaneously then. So, what reference book are YOU using? Sounds better than my sources.. |

You people! ST Stole my Thunder... almost
Another episode the ship was hijacked in was Let That Be Your Last Battlefield.
And the epiosde that was spoken of earlier (another Hijacking and heading to the Galactic Barrier) WAS By Any Other Name where some aliens turned the whole crew into little cubes.
They took human form but weren't human so Kirk over powered the female with love and Scotty got one drunk, which is where we get the line, "It is green," which was spoofed in Doohan's return on TNG in Relics.
