YATI :

A big problem for Voyager is that they can't communicate with the planet. But they are able to slow transmissions from the planet down and listen to them, so why can't they speed their own messages up?

Great Moment :

Gotana-Retx sitting in the captain's ready room singing his little song about Voyager.

Body Count :

Many generations of people on the planet below and one astronaut from the planet whilst on Voyager.

Factoid :

Obi Ndefo also played Drex in DS9 episode "The Way of the Warrior"

Quote :

"Our ignorant ancestors believed every star was a deity. You taught me how foolish that was. 'Superstition,' you called it." - the Protector to the Cleric
