More on the Nexus


It may have been mentioned before but I haven't seen it. But, uh, the Nexus is suppose to be a place where time doesn't exist therefore you can move back and forth through events in your life. Except it seems you can also insert yourself in a time period when you clearly never existed, and make up people who clearly never existed. Much like a holosuite. So technically all Soran had to do was get himself to the nearest holosuite or spend his eighty years figuring out how him could permanently have some kind of holosuite device implanted into his head and leave millions of people in peace, Kirk would live on, enterprise-d would be intact, win win for everybody.

More likely is that Soran had a "reflection" living happily with his family still in the Nexus (seeing as Guinan was also in the Nexus).

But as we've all discussed before, it seems pretty clear that Picard is still in the Nexus, and everything that happened after is all part of his Nexus fantasy. He didn't really get a cool, badass ship with no kids, the Borg do not have a Queen, etc.

Just saw the original "Shore Leave" episode where they were on a planet that could provide anything the crew desired! Was this movie somewhat of a ripoff to this story from the 60's? Seem so! 

What the heck is a "holosuite"?

Do you mean "holodeck" by any chance?

reply

Private mini-holodeck in DS9.

Yeah, probably too expensive. This is one of those things where Star Trek can't decide if there's money or not in the future.
