"He's a healer, let him heal." Fascinating, simply fascinating. His technology and training has nothing to do with silicone life forms, but he's going to heal him. Hmm.
Wow the chief looks like one of the BP guys. Hope th deyo somthing for the Horta when thy finish tunneling the F out of the whole planet. Maybe they will relocate the Horta to Sarasota or maybe Luoisiana. Hope the Government is on the case, sure wish the Horta has good luck trusting the BP guys.
The Carlin Gold mines in Nevada extracts 5,172.41 tons of gold ore to produce a mere 50 pounds of gold at a profit. If the same effort is made with granite rock then an equivalent of 5,172.41 tons of granite can produce: 413 tons of aluminum, 258 tons of iron, 31tons of titanium, 4 of manganese, 1.8 tons of chromium, 1.03of nickel, .77 of vanadium,.51tons of copper, .25 tons of tungsten.10tons of lead,.06 tons of thorium, .027 tons of uranium. Unfortunately man's priorities seems illogical.
A planet that can meet the mineral and metal needs of 200 billion people is already here and it is called Earth. Professor Harrison Brown once said that 100 tons of ordinary igneous rock like granite can produce: 8 tons of aluminum., 5

I was at a Star Trek con this weekend, and Shatner talked about filming this episode while on stage with Nimoy. During the filming of this episode, William Shatner's father died, and he filmed part of it right after learning about his death. He told on stage about how Nimoy was a physical presence and silent support to him that day. That Nimoy was simply his friend, and it meant the world to him. I wonder how much of that came through in the filming
@3link1 Most people I talked to watched the show because of the story not the visuals. And if it did get canceled for that reason then our society is even dumber than i thought. But in all honesty it had way better production than any other sci fi tv show. and even better than some full length picture movies at the time. Star wars didn't come out till the 70s and that was considered to be top notch spec effects so this isn't so bad if you compare the two.
This reactor provides heat and air for the entire planet and can poison half of it just as easily.....thats why we put only ONE guard on it. Smart, very smart.
@CrazySchool09 its like sending your ships top commanding officers on the incredibly dangerous missions. its almost safer to be a grunt in this show...preferably a yellow shirt...Scotty seems to be the only red shirt who DOESN'T die.
I understand now why Red Shirts always die, It's because they're IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That one guy had just gotten his orders to kill the monster on sight and yet, when he was standing right in front of it, he just screams! although, It may just be bad writing because their's some of it right after when Spock says, "He didn't even have time to fire," and Kirk says, " we didn't hear any screaming." HE WAS STANDING THERE YELLING! sheesh.
at 5:22 the man has to open the door by pushing a switch on the table far away from the door. I'd hate to live in those times when you can't even open a door when your standing right in front of it. You have to walk over to the table.
@kabooby0 Someone who knows statistics! There are 100 people in groups of 2. Chances of kirk and spock being in one group is 4950:1. Chances of the Horta approaching 1 group is 50C1. Probability of it being "Spirk" group is 50*4950, 247500:1. If groups are not random, chances of an encounter are 50:1. The only place Spock's # could have come from is the Horta's ability to kill a group. But, as a statistician once said, 20% of all statistics are made up... probably includes Spock's!
@SuDokuMaster Not at all; it's "fascinating." Lol, of course, it's strange how they just pick it up, considering its ability to secrete corrosive compounds...
@ChibiKiraTora For f2@k sake,people who are friends with their boss often call them by their first name. My mother calls her boss 'Jenna' and is very good friends,but that does not mean that they are having an affair. Several research assistants whom I knew called their professor Lin'iang [first name],but I highly doubt that two gay and two straight affairs were happening to the same person. Grow up.
@196508847BH I agree a close working invironment often results in first name-calling. It shows they share trust. They are valuable friends to one another and fear for each other's safety.
So what happened to seek out new life?? The creature is obviously intelligent if it's going after their power source yet the first reaction is to kill it?
Ok, I love how if I want to skip to a spot by clicking a point in the time bar, the fuckin thing just plays a "foxy line" commercial and then starts over. I just want to watch the last 10 minutes and it won't let me. In all seriousness, watching these episodes is the most frustrating experience I've ever had with youtube.
7:25 ...and.......there goes another redshirt......jeez we relly need to stock up on these guys at the rate their being burned,eaten, shot, strangled, sttruck by lightning, killed by plants, falling off cliffs, getting stabbed, getting viruses, getting sucked into the endless void of space, disappearing.....you get the picture
I actually like the idea that the show begins by showing the audience a little bit of what the danger of this episode is before the Enterprise discovers it.
Starting at 14:12, it is funny that Scotty needs no Radiation Protection when improvising a Reactor Primary Circulating Pump. The crew of K-19 would definitely roll their eyes at this one...
@hayitsscott. You need to finish watching it. The explinations are all in the second half. The second half gives the whole point of the episode and the moral of the story. After seeing it I'm convinced that you will love the episode.
man, one of the best episodes ever. I've always like animals, so I guess that's why this one appealed to me. I just wish one thing THAT THEY WOULD'VE SHOWN A CLIP OF THE BABY HORTA. I don't care how ugly the horta's are, their babies would still be cute. :) A pretty funny episode too I might add. ah, if only all animals were as intelligent as the horta. We could negotiate so much. Well, only as long a we had a Spock, lol.
I forget which interview it was, but it was Shatner and Nimoy and on that interview, they were discussing this very episode. Apparently when Nimoy was yelling "PAIN!", Shatner in the background yelled "Get that man an asprin!" and that made everyone laugh, except for Nimoy.
Earth already has an Earth version of Janus 6 containing virtually all the mineral needs of this planet. Siberia, in the Amur region. Alaska, in the Northern regions. Tibet, all of it's area is densely mineralized. All these areas are highly accessible and contains all the elements in the periodic table. The question is geopolitically in nature, who's allowed to mine it and at under what conditions and terms. Mining technologies are already advanced enough to prevent ecological damages totally.
You are partially correct. Both Kirk & Picard make reference in ST movies of the lack of pursuit of material wealth. Within the "utopian" socialistic community of the Federation, that may be true. However, these miners, along with the miners in Mudd's Women are outside the Federation and are good old capitalist
Haha I like how at the beginning Spock is undermining Kirk, saying Don't kill it! Save it for science! and then once Kirk is in danger he's all, It must die!! He's so obvious.
But starfleet rules demand that you protect the ship's captain. Especially if you are the captain's first mate! So that has precedence over the scientific need to preserve the creature.
@bala3518 Spock is obviously having an emotional reaction, though. Kirk even says he's not in direct danger. And he offers to phaser Kirk out, even though it's not safe.
Spock is so awesome. He makes Kirk the Captain he is. Without Spock, Kirk would be SO freakin' lost. Spock knows all and figures everything out! Go Spock!!!
and I don't care how old Leonard Nimoy is, I'd still jump on that!!!
WHY exactly are they leaving somebody alone when there's clearly a dangerous monster nearby? I guess with a name like "Schmitter," nobody is going to care if you die.
@GoCrazy333: It's called - and this is not to start a race war since we're all Trek-kin here but - "Caucacinematitis." Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle types would articulate it as "Stupid White People" - a secretive investigational observation in black circles in context of film lore. Extraordinarily intelligent people constantly decrying their own wisdom by depicting their kind as obtuse. Ex: phasers "didn't even make a scratch." Yet? Keep posting single guards. With? Phasers. Huwuh? Hence? SWP
Immediately after Spock and Kirk take a shot at the creature, blasting off a chunk of it's body, they casually pick up a piece of the monster and calmly go about discussing it's incredibly dangerous, corrosive properties while holding the still pulsating chunk of monster flesh in their bare hands.
God, I love the Star Trek series, but this kind of shit makes me wonder whether the continuity guys on the writing staff were dicking about in the wings, smoking dope and dosing on LSD.
I hope by this time 2400 we get to this point in technology. But something tells me that's gonna take 800 years from now i totally believe though 400 years from now we will find and communicate with a alien civilization.
I love how Spock is all for life preservation despite the deaths the Horta caused, and yet, the minute Jim Kirk is standing in front of it, Spock is all, "Life preservation? Did I say that? My captain's life is in danger, ROAST THE BASTARD."
I must watch this again, as I remember the "monster" looking much like a big piece of lasagna. It would also explain the fact that it burned so many crewmen (hot lasagna is dangerous stuff, you know).
You know what might be interesting? The USS Enterprise encountering the Aliens; Queen bitch fighting Spock perhaps; ah but then again, Star Trek technology could make short work of the Aliens...
...but maybe if the Enterprise encountered a ship of Predators...??
not the most consistent episode, but a damn funny one. And some good quotes outa Bones and Spock

WHY exactly are they leaving somebody alone when there's clearly a dangerous monster nearby? I guess with a name like "Schmitter," nobody is going to care if you die.

@GoCrazy333: It's called - and this is not to start a race war since we're all Trek-kin here but - "Caucacinematitis." Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle types would articulate it as "Stupid White People" - a secretive investigational observation in black circles in context of film lore. Extraordinarily intelligent people constantly decrying their own wisdom by depicting their kind as obtuse. Ex: phasers "didn't even make a scratch." Yet? Keep posting single guards. With? Phasers. Huwuh? Hence? SWP

Spock doesn't like Italian food, but apparently Italian food likes Spock.
(And by "Italian food," I mean the pizza monster.)

So the Pizza Carpet Monster can speak English and writes in all capital letters. Fascinating.

this proves that there are tunneling pizza monsters out there in the universe somewhere, which means the flying spaghetti monster exists also
lol, just kidding...but think about it, though...

Immediately after Spock and Kirk take a shot at the creature, blasting off a chunk of it's body, they casually pick up a piece of the monster and calmly go about discussing it's incredibly dangerous, corrosive properties while holding the still pulsating chunk of monster flesh in their bare hands.
God, I love the Star Trek series, but this kind of shit makes me wonder whether the continuity guys on the writing staff were dicking about in the wings, smoking dope and dosing on LSD.

I hope by this time 2400 we get to this point in technology. But something tells me that's gonna take 800 years from now i totally believe though 400 years from now we will find and communicate with a alien civilization.
P.S. These are all just some theory's

I love how Spock is all for life preservation despite the deaths the Horta caused, and yet, the minute Jim Kirk is standing in front of it, Spock is all, "Life preservation? Did I say that? My captain's life is in danger, ROAST THE BASTARD."
Spock totally loves Jim. D'aww.

I must watch this again, as I remember the "monster" looking much like a big piece of lasagna. It would also explain the fact that it burned so many crewmen (hot lasagna is dangerous stuff, you know).

Similar to the episode "Arena", with the Gorn. They were only protecting themselves.
When we stop being scared enough try to talk with them, understand them, then we can work with them.
Peace instead of war.
