Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?
Also, it looks like these jets will be for operations like medevac and disaster relief, with VIP transport continuing to be gravely by the Airbus CC-330.
This article muddies that a bit by delving into the past controversies with the use of the Challengers as VIP transport.
That’s the vibe I’ve seen as someone who doesn’t really follow the Canucks - they were in the classic position of, “move him now and get something in return or let him walk for free later.”
It looks like the Global 6500 is a new/in-development plane, but it’s a business jet, which is one of the few things Bombardier seems to do well. Hopefully they won’t make a mess of it.
All interviews I’ve seen have said this is the mainstream Doctor.
Which doesn’t mean Picardo couldn’t do double-duty for an episode or three…
In all seriousness, from what I’ve seen Picardo say about the Doctor’s state of mind, I wonder if he abandoned any name(s) he’d chosen as he watched his loved ones grow old and die.
Joe The Doctor
I was expecting 50 minutes of them holding hands under a tree!
Okay, okay.
Suboptimal.
There may not be snow (snow by Halloween is neither unusual nor a given), but the temperatures should be comfortably around 0 - good enough to maintain the ice, and be comfortable for spectators.
That said, Winnipeg hit 16 degrees on October 25 this year, which is not ideal.
Xenophobic military propaganda?
Okay, I’ll bite on this.
I’ll grant that it’s been a long time, but that seems like the opposite of the message of both that episode and the season as a whole…
I agree, but also this was a 2700 km trip, as the crow flies.
On the Canadian side, it’s still technically up in the air, but you’ve got your sure-thing players like Sidney Crosby and Connor McDavid.
But there are a lot of players who would love a spot - it’s a once-or-twice in a lifetime opportunity, so it’s a bit of a subplot around the league as players are hoping to impress their respective Olympic Committees.
It’s worth noting that it’s an Olympic year, which is always a nationalistic good time.
The boos came later when she asked if they were more comfortable in Canada than they were a few days ago.
And the pipeline deal is why she was asking, so what’s the difference, exactly?
it didn’t seem to have an answer for why the Federation didn’t use it later.
Well, you need to either find and enslave an exotic space tardigrade in order to navigate the network, or illegally splice said tardigrade’s DNA into your own.
And even then, navigation is pretty challenging, and can result in accidental time and/or interdimensional travel.
And a malfunction has the potential to destroy all life in the multiverse.
And both ships that had the prototypes installed were lost within about a year.
Take your pick, really.
The mushy middle is a tough place to hang out.
