In Endgame the alternate Voyager does loops above SF HQ on Earth.

VOY lands on numerous planets, which means that it should be able to operate within them.

Not so fast... in the Delta Quadrant, common sense does not apply.

Fair point. The laws of logic do not apply there.

Kirk's Enterprise also went back in time and they ended up in Earth's atmosphere. And they could get out again, but I don't know how they react to getting into an atmosphere.

That BoP was able to operate in an atmosphere as well, right?

As far as we can see in the filmwith the genetically engineered space whales, yes.

Hell, the BoP was able to go to warp in the atmosphere.

As well as in a star's corona in TNG.

no, Power issues, Do you really think that the power requirements would be low, as also adding in a new warp core would probably like trying to run Vista on a ENIAC...

Good point. What, exactly, does it refer to?

well i really wasn't clear on that, my apologies, But, I can imagine that QT's and the new phaser arrays, would consume a lot of power, thus needing a new warp core which is similar to the Nuclear reactor, The core probably wouldn't FIT or be compatible with the existing circuitry.

Understood. I just thought you were responding to the most recent discussion.

And the mystery is solved.
