Blink Of An Eye Spoiler Nits Below:
In this episode, Voyager is in synchronous orbit about a planet that
rotates 58 times a minute. Why don't the stars move in Voyager's
windows? Why do the graphics show Voyager moving opposite the planet's
spin?
According to Voyager's sensors, the seasons are only a few seconds long
(a few days long in the planet's hyper accelerated time frame). How is
this possible without the planet being so close to its sun that it and
Voyager would roast?
At least one fan has suggested that the planet could be wobbling on its
axis like Earth does, but I didn't see any moons to cause such a wobble.
When two native astronauts pay a visit, the female astronaut feels
Torres' hand and says that it feels warm. Since time was passing far
more slowly for Torres than for the astronauts, I believe that the
female astronaut shouldn't have felt any heat passing from Torres' hand
to hers, so Torres' hand should have felt cold.
How could the astronauts walk? Shouldn't Voyager's gravity feel very
weak to the astronauts (at^2/2, with t = 1/86,400th of a second, and a =
9.8m/sec^2)?
A few native minutes after the astronauts visit Engineering, they visit
the Bridge (15 decks up IIRC). How did they climb 15 decks so quickly?
After the natives bombard Voyager for a few minutes, the male astronaut
Katana returns (the female being dead). He persuades his people to stop
firing on Voyager and tow Voyager out of orbit. The tug ships arrive
about 1.5 years after Katana's return. Why didn't the natives send the
following message to Voyager: "Stand By To Be Towed"?
Katana visits for a few minutes after the towing of Voyager. Why
doesn't Janeway ask him to ask the native scientists for help in getting
Voyager home? I am certain that Voyager could afford to wait in high
orbit a few more days for the hyper fast natives to develop a hyper fast
drive to get Voyager home, and give the natives information about
displacement waves, wormholes, transwarp conduits, quantum slipstreams,
and coaxial warps to help them.
