We were talking about what famous people we shared a birthday with. She told me she already knew about Bill Clinton, so I looked up a list and learned for the first time that Gene Roddenberry was born on August 19th....
Whatever they said, Warp 9.975 is NOT the maximum sustainable speed of an Intrepid-class starship. It’s the maximum possible speed… for a few hour at best, before the warp core needs to be powered down to prevent everything from melting.
It’s not a stretch to assume that the initial 75-year estimate was based on average sustainable speed and taking into account time needed to stop, refuel, maintain, repair, etc. Over that long a time, it wouldn’t be enough to just pour more deuterium into it. Most of the warp engine would have to be rebuilt or replaced.
Also, the computer was struggling to figure out exactly where they were, so it might have been off by a few years at first. When Seven built astrometrics, they immediately updated their ETA.
His birth father died when Brent was less than a year old, so he took his adopted father’s name “Mintz” from 1955-1975 before finally reverting back to “Spiner.”...
