The movie was ruined for me when he launches a rocket into a star that looks to be about 1au away and the rocket gets there in like 15 seconds. Dont tell me that ish was warp-capable.
We don’t know the size of the star he blew up so we can’t know how far away he is. Maybe it’s a small star and they’re really close. Also why can’t the missile have warp? Dreadnaught, the missile reprogrammed by B’Elanna, was warp capable and it was designed and built a couple years before Soran tries to return to the Nexus.
It was equipped with “The Screenwriter and Director are Pretty Sure The Audience Doesn’t Know High School Physics” Drive. Very powerful!
Soren hasn’t got the time for thirst-trap Klingons.
He already had paradise, if only he could see it.
I always wondered, since soren did manage to get into the nexus the first time, and the nexus is outside time, did Picard’s time shenanigans effectively “pull him out” again (if so why doesn’t he remember) or is there a version of him now back in the nexus forever?
is there a version of him now back in the nexus forever?
I don’t think he exists in the Nexus like Guinan does. Guinan and the crew of the El-Aurian ship were beamed out by Scottie while the were phasing into and out of our existence and the Nexus. My head canon is that they were doubled at that instant (like Riker or Boimler). That’s why she can be there and on The D at the same time.
No, but he got in the Nexus proper along with Picard, no?
Yes but he only exists once. Unlike Guinan who (according to my head canon) was duplicated. Don’t get me started on the whole existing out of time bit because everything just falls apart when you try to make a timeline like that.
Ye, it’s a bit annoying how often ST uses time travel nonsense.
± what?
Give or take. His species lives for centuries and I’m sure they lose track after a while.
I suspect the person you responded to understood the context, but was cheekily calling out the “technically incorrect” usage of ±
The ± symbol requires a tolerance value to create a defined maximum and minimum range, e.g 300±20 (so Soran could be anything between 280 and 320)
it doesn’t mean “approximately”
But I understand this is just an inconsequential funny picture, so whatever right.
it doesn’t mean “approximately”
They should have wrote ~300 if they wanted approximately 300.
Exactly :)
The unit (years) is also missing.
Well, that part at least I don’t think is necessary. It’s a parody of a dating app, and it seems from searching screenshots the real app doesn’t have units either - just the number.
Which is just fine, because the number next to someone’s name being their age is clear from context.
