I'm confused. So like the torpedo is the fastest thing moving, and the asteroid is just stationary, sittin ghtere, in a tube that sucking a spaceship thru it faster than light?

What kind of space camera filmed this?

[CJCA915]

@BillyJimOMFG The asteroid is slowly moving towards the Enterprise... in most of the shots, the camera is mounted to the Enterprise.

[AeronPeryton]

It looks like one person didn't belay those Phaser orders. :P

[CJCA915]

@AeronPeryton huh?

[AeronPeryton]

@CJCA915 You have 1 dislike. That could only mean that person decided to fire Phasers at the asteroid... effectively tearing the ship apart. ;)

[CJCA915]

@AeronPeryton oh

[StarFleetCommand3]

@nozcr I which he just relax and enjoy amazing picture clarity of the DirectTV HD we just hooked up. What Starfleet just ponied up for this big screen TV, settling for cable would be illogical. What, I can't use that line? *shrug*

[nozcr]

@MrMoorkey UH, uh, well ... How do you like the new flat screen TV in my quarters? It's about time they put one of these in my room.

[MrMoorkey]

@nozcr You haven't logged a single star-hour in two and a half years. That, plus your unfamiliarity with the ship's redesign, in my opinion, seriously jeapordises this mission.

[nozcr]

@MrMoorkey Don't ever question my orders in front of the crew. Understood?

[MrMoorkey]

@nozcr TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRR­RRPEEEEEEEEEDOOOO AWAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

[Spud13ify]

@nozcr Yeah, that makes sense.

[nozcr]

@Spud13ify The color of the torpedo depends on the Effects Technician who is doing the effect. They have been all sorts of colors in the past 50 years. The lack of continuity is one reason that JJ Abrams decided to start the series over in another dimension. That way they wouldn't have to follow anything that was seen in the first five Star Trek series.

@MrMoorkey TTTTTTTAAAAARRRRRGGGGGEEETTTII­IINNNGGGG AAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSTTT­TTTTTTEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRROOOOO­OOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDD.

[nozcr]

@BillyJimOMFG As I understand it, they used an oscillascope, a device used by sound technicians to create a picture of a sound wave. using video processors they bent the sound wave into a tube. (also used in Dr.Who opening, The original Willy Wonka (1971), and The Electric Company(PBS)) It was a totally analog effect.

[nozcr]

@BillyJimOMFG In order to go faster than light, the Enterprise uses those big magnets in the rear to bend the fabric of space into a tube, which it glides through pushed by a wave. This time, an asteroid got sucked into the tube due to an imbalance in the field generators, so it was also getting pushed along faster than light, but slowly being overtaken by the Enterprise, since it was the one with the engines. They tried to slow down, but the engines would not respond, so they destroyed it.
