File No. 69 - Card 26 THE CHILD
On photo 4 caption it states that Data had to correct Pulaski on the pronounciation of Deannas babys name - when it fact it was his own name that Pulaski kept pronouncing as DATa not as (phonecitally) Date-a
Also, in one of the Voyager cards, it claims that Voyager has two warp cores. What, pray tell, happened to this 'spare' warp core in 'Cathexis', and 'Day Of Honor'? From those episodes I got the impression that there was only one warp core...
Plus (this is VERY picky) it claims that File 29 Card 15 is 'USS Voyager Medical Facilities', but 'USS Voyager Sickbay' is Card 25. According to the Enterprise-D file, 'Medical Facilities' and 'Sickbay' are the same thing...
There are probably lots more nits, but because I'm at university and my files are at home, I can only check them up when I visit home...
The reason why it says that Voyager has 2 warp cores is NOT A NIT (well, not in itself, actually.) On Voyager's Master Situation Monitor, which is the big cutaway schematic of the ship located directly behind Cap'n Kate and Chuckles' chairs, the diagram shows that the ship does indeed have two warp cores! One in main engineering, and another, near the deflector, in storage.
In the episode section, there is a picture from 'A Man Alone'. The caption reads 'Dax and Sisko examine the
orb', when the picture shows them examining the clone thing.
The card about voyagers Astrometrics Lab has a plan of the ship, but the location is not marked on - where is Astrometrics?
If as stated above, voyager has 2 warp cores, then why didnt they use the one in storage before the went to retreive the one ejected in Day of Honour?
How can they store a second wrp core - They havent got the space!
They can store the never-ending shuttlecrafts... Let's face it... Voyager must be another TARDIS...!
A TARDIS - YES!!! After all they do have a DOCTOR who! And he has(had)a female assistant........
Another similarity to the Tardis/Dr Who is that instead of a Dalek going around "exterminating" people, Voyager has a borg that used to go around "assimilating" people!
OK.. this is VERY picky... but in the episodes section, there are a few errors in the episode titles:
'Inner Light' should be 'THE Inner Light'
'THE Armageddon Game' should be 'Armageddon Game'
'THE Phage' should be 'Phage'
There's one in Classic Trek as well... I think it says 'Return Of The Archons' instead of 'THE Return Of The Archons'.. trouble is I haven't got access to my editions of the fact files..
Also, has anyone else found problems with the 'Also In This File' information in the 'Medical Technology' section?
File 7, Card 5B
There are 2 photos on this card - one of Neil Armstron and one of Buzz Aldrin. The captions have been transposed.
File 10, Card 11
Twice this card refers to Bareil Antos in the human way of forename then surname
In the "Nurse Chapel in love" card there`s a scene from "Plato`s Stepchildren" but the caption suggests that it`s from "Bread and Circuses" (the stardate is mentioned as 4040.7 and the planet as 892 IV)
There are two different cards both numbered File 66 card 11
Finally the big question regarding the mess hall has been dealt with in the Fact Files... kind of.
When they wrote the card for Neelix's Galley (File 29 Card 24 - I think) they said it was on deck 6. However, in the recent card for the Mess Hall (File 29 Card 18), they said it was on deck 2 (or vice versa). Seems even the creators don't know where it is (unless Neelix decided to move the whole thing a few decks).
In the A-Z Index, they list the episode "Thine Own Self" (referring to the Barkon Species) as "In Thine Image", which is actually a corruption of the pilot title for the aborted "Phase II" series (that became The Motion Picture).
Does anyone still get this - or am I the only one?
I'm still hanging in there, Phillip - they've just announced they'll be covering 'Enterprise' so it looks like the magazine will be continuing for a while yet. I'm not sure how they're going to fit it in though since all the file numbers are taken!
I've got the extra cards for Enterprise - they're not numbered, however as well as Enterprise dividers they've done ones for all the ships and the series, so I've put it in where it looks good (Enterprise NX-01 and pre-Starfleet Earth goes betwen 19 and 20, while the episode guide goes between 66 and 67)
Sadly I'm at uni most of the time, so I only get to update them whenever I go home - which isn't till mid-March now!
This series has just come to an end with Issue #304. They've covered the first season of 'Enterprise' but obviously will not be looking at anything appearing in the new film.
Just seen it too - very sad!
However it's annoying since they've left several holes in the collection, plus there was so much more for Enterprise they could have done - cards on the senior staff, basic cards about the ship (not even a pull-out scematic!) doesn;t amount to much
Oh well, I've got my fingers crosed it's only temporary, and give it 6-12 months and they'll come back with Enterrpise Season 2 stuff plus Nemesis stuff!
Pculley: Also, in one of the Voyager cards, it claims that Voyager has two warp cores. What, pray tell, happened to this 'spare' warp core in 'Cathexis', and 'Day Of Honor'?
The writers forgot. The fact that Voyager has two warp cores was spelled out in the Voyager Writer's Manual, published for in-house use by Paramount. I used to have a copy, but I lost it.
