If I were a Force user and were to cast a Force push targeted at another person standing so far away, would they have the ability to dodge it or would the person, no matter how fast they reacted, still be affected and hit by it? To put in a crude manner: does the Force behave the same way that a...

The Episode VII crawl sets up POE DAMERON as a key character: Leia has sent her most daring pilot on a secret mission to Jakku, where an old ally has discovered a clue to Luke’s whereabouts…. But after helping Stormtrooper FN-2187 desert the First Order, Poe is seemingly killed when their h...

Description : It involves a Boy and robot MC white, mecha, and has a big red o ring on its body. I already searched anime with mecha genre but came up empty handed.

There is very little I remember about this book, I read it maybe thirty years ago. I think - There was a human sphere of space surrounded by a more advanced alien race, slowly over many years the aliens were encroaching into the human sphere and taking over star systems and basically enslaving t...

Star Trek TNG, S7E13, from the Memory Alpha Article on the Episode: Rozhenko reveals that he did not beam up the Boraalans without a plan; he plans to find a new class M planet for the Boraalans and to gradually change the terrain on the holodeck so it will appear that the Boraalans are trave...

Due to the fact that Intrepid class starship utilizes neural gel packs, would a baryon sweep damage them? If so, how would they purge baryon particles?

According to physics, I think we define anything as real if it interacts with us. According to biology, I think we define anything as real if we can perceive it through our senses. The thoughts we have in our mind could be a visual imagery. For instance, just a reproduction of image of a real wor...

In the Shawarma scene, everyone is seen eating except Captain America. Why isn't he eating?

I have been looking for this show for years now. It was a cartoon and was definitely on Netflix in 2009 or 2010. I remember there was a girl who I think was named Kira and her color was like aqua; she had an older brother whose color was red. Her legs didn't work so she had these boots that would...

Following the runaway Rio Grande in the Orinoco, Kira and Dax work on a way to catch it. Kira plots an intercept course and plans to beam over, but Dax has a better idea. She begins configuring the runabout's controls and claims she can use "an old rope trick" she once learned from a Hopi. Why ...

We know that the Borg were already right by the federation and Romulan space in the episode called “The neutral zone” in season 1. I know changes were made to the Borg later due to the writers strike, but was there any mention of where that Borg ship was after that? Did it return to Borg space? ...

A short story I read somewhere, possibly Analog Magazine. The US government assembles a team of Scientists to reverse engineer a wrecked antigravity backpack. The word 'noise' is in the title. It turns out the film of it working was faked. The government thought that there was no progress in anti...

In scientific reality could a region of space like the Badlands actually exist? I'm far from an astronomy expert, but wouldn't a dense collection of debris like in the Badlands; would be gravitationally unstable and would rapidly collapse into stars, planets, or planetisimals?

From The Silmarillion: As a dead beast Beren lay upon the ground; but Lúthien touching him with her hand aroused him, and he cast aside the wolf-hame. Then he drew forth the knife Angrist; and from the iron claws that held it he cut a Silmaril. As he closed it in his hand, the radiance w...

It was an older movie I watched on TV in the US, probably around mid-80s, but the movie was obviously much older. It had the same cinematic feel as as "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". A creature was created in a lab (I think on accident). It was shaped like a fried egg (mostly flat with a hump ...

In Eureka we see that in the beginning of the series they have small 'advanced' (at the time) phones. However, as the show moved on, the real world experienced the smart phone revolution. Why didn't Eureka top this by having 'smarter' phones? Did the production team ever comment on why the pho...

This TV show was somewhat a ripoff of Power Rangers, in that the kids go into giant robots that fight, and those robots can merge together into a giant super-robot. It seemed like a competitor. Like Power Rangers, it was an ordinary cable show, but I don't remember which network. The kids lived ...

The Infinity Stones it is said were made when the universe was made. There are at least two entities that could have performed such a feat; The One-Above-All and the Living Tribunal. Both of whom can and do create universes or multiverses and both predate the universe. The stones are very specifi...

I'm wondering about cases where a starship captain or other person responsible for calling drills suspected an ambush or trap. So they decided "right now would be a good time to do a drill on battle stations", which had the effect of raising the ship to full alert. As a result they were ready w...

Much of the film Predestination centers around a character called the “Fizzle Bomber”. Why is this character named this way? They may have mentioned it in the film but I cannot recall. I have my own theory but it’s not really based on anything.

based on what I recall, full impulse is 0.25c and warp 1 is 1.0c. Are ships in the Star Trek universe capable of traveling at speeds that span that interval? If so, how and what do they call it?

Valorum see comment. This is an "Identify that TV/movie" question which I believe is still on-topic here. I'm wondering about a case where A starship captain (or other person responsible for calling routine drills) calls a red alert/battle stations etc. for no apparent reason. Actually, he...
