Fourth Law of Thermodynamics

Just curious here folks, but in all of canon Star Trek, has anyone ever mentioned, quoted, or referred to Murphy's Law by name? I recently heard Murphy's Law humorously being referred to as the 'Fourth Law of Thermodynamics', and thought that, as often as things go wrong, it just might be deserving ...

Re: Congrats, big bro!

The big Five-0, eh?

The Pon-Farr should really kick-in for you at any time now.

Let us know how that goes.

Re: Leonard Nimoy hospitalized

! If you've ever wondered what it felt like for Bones when he received Spock's Katra..., to have Spock and his thoughts living on inside his mind..., now we all know..., because we've all been touched by Leonard Nimoy and his work..., Now a bit of Spock lives on inside each of us, as it should be. &...

Re: Prelude to Axanar

Hi all, I ran across both "Prelude to Axanar" and "Star Trek Continues" a month or so ago, and was very impressed with both! Having Christopher Doohan reprising his father's role as 'Scotty' was great! In the first episode of 'Continues', Michael Forest returns in his original ro...

Re: Things that make you go "Hmmm?"

-Romulus is destryoyed in the Prime universe by a supernova. Remus too? I can't accept that it wasn't also destroyed. That shockwave had to destroy half the Romulan star system, and possibly it's sun, before being able to reach the planet Romulus. The resulting changes in the gravational fields of ...

Things that make you go "Hmmm?"

These are just some random thoughts about Star Trek in general, that I've had in the last few years. Things that have always left me with a persistant "?" over my head. Not trying to start a huge debate or issue here, and I'm reluctant to ask others for opinions on anything, because asking...

Re: Is the Animated Series made for adults or kids?

As far as the original question goes, I'd like to quote D.C. Fontana: "For whatever reason, Gene Roddenberry apparently didn’t take the animated series seriously (no pun intended), although we (the writers) worked very hard to do original STAR TREK stories and concepts at all times in the anima...

Re: So how did you get into Star Trek?

Graham, funny you should compare Perry's team to the X-Men, as I also thought of them as such (I wonder if Stan Lee was inspired by them to create the X-Men?) at the time, as I was also reading the comic books at the time. My favorite on his team was the 'teleport' guy. They'd be on some planet, bei...

Re: So how did you get into Star Trek?

Sept. 8, 1966. The first airing of a new TV series about Sci-Fy and space travel! I was 8, soon to be 9 years old. My father was a fan and avid reader of the Perry Rhoden Sci-Fy books, and would tell me stories about them. I soon was a fan of Isaac Asimov's science essays, as he could explain any sc...

Re: Happy Birthday Voyager!

I loved the whole premise of a Federation Starship suddenly finding themselves 'Lost in Space', now cut-off from all Federation resources, and struggling to make it home on their own. And the series opening video sequence is still (IMHO) the most visually stunning of all of them, and the departure f...
