[edit] Two part Episode??

• Episode 7 plus Episode 19??? Not bad!!!!

The second-part of "The Naked Time" eventually became "Tomorrow is Yesterday". In an earlier draft of this script, Kirk was to order a hyperbolic course back "the way we came... toward Earth." As it turned out, the two episodes were shot as stand-alone ventures. --GNDN 04:01, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Close-Up?

The article states that this episode contains the last close-up of George Takei. But, I remember another one in "The Lights of Zetar", although it was printed backwards in that episode. - Adambomb1701 14:09, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

My reading of this bit is that it is unique in that the episode is the only one in which the last close-up in the episode is one of Takei, rather than being Takei's last close-up. -- Hawaiian717 15:50, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nuclear Warheads?

"Aircraft is an interceptor, equipped with missiles, possibly armed with nuclear warheads. If he hits us with one, he might damage us severely." -Spock

I pretty sure a modern F/A-18 does not carry missiles "armed with nuclear warheads", much less an F-104 in 1969. Christopher was never truly a threat, and having been taken a bit by surprise, Spock was simply erring on the side of caution. I think this is an important story point, and the summary should reflect that. --Tombstone 01:36, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Actually, while modern interceptors do not carry nuclear warheads, they in fact DID in the 1950s, 60s, and into at least the 70s. F-102 and F-106 fighters carried nuclear versions of the Falcon air-to-air missile, and F-101 and F-104 fighters could carry the AIR-2A Genie nuclear air-to-air rocket. These weapons were designed to take down entire formations of Soviet bombers with a single weapon, but were retired when the threat shifted from bombers to ICBMs, and when it was realized that the EMP from these weapons could be crippling to our own air-defense systems. --OuroborosCobra ^talk 01:50, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
