Review :	This was actually quite an interesting episode, and I liked it for some reason. The Law of Unintended Consequences strikes once more. Now, I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought that Carey was dead, while he came back here only to die needlessly here. I did wonder about Neelix going down to the planet after what had happened on Rhinax, but it got mentioned, which I suppose was OK. When they started to clear the radiation, why not work on the other side of the planet (especially if it's ocean) where the shockwaves won't affect the people on the surface. We also saw the infamous radiation inoculations appear once again, but they are so firmly established that they will probably be impossible to get rid of. Still, I did like Friendship 1 as a design and a concept. Just about right.

Review :	I very much enjoyed the episode, but I couldn't get over the incosistency presented by the location of the probe. Given that the probe was launched from Earth a few years after the warp-barrier-eclipsing flight of the Phoenix (and Enterprise series tells us warp 2 wasn't broken till much later), the fact that the probe has traveled 30,000 LYs in only 300 years was irritating to me. Maybe the borg or the caretaker helped it on it's way? Every episode has a warp speed issue, but this one was to a 1000x factor.
