Revision as of 21:17, 16 April 2006

We need some pics and info on the viewscreen used in Nemesis. It was obviously different from previous versions as it could be turned off. -- Redge | Talk 19:40, 16 Aug 2004 (CEST)

I think it was mentioned in the script that the screens were now turned off during spaceflight, because people became dizzy of the gazing stars at warp. By the way, in First Contact also, the screen was seen turned-off. Ottens 19:46, 16 Aug 2004 (CEST)
Yes, but I mean the different type of turned off. If the old viewscreen was turned off, it was still there. When the new type was turned off, it dissappeared, and you could see the bulkhead. -- Redge | Talk 12:07, 21 Aug 2004 (CEST)
It is stated in the commnetary(?) on the First Contact Special Edition DVD that the viewscreen in that film is a holographic screen. Why and when this change was made, and why it was changed beck to a physical screen, are not explained in canon. The screens could always be turned off, but they rarely ever are as they function as a window to provide the audience with a reference as to where the ship is during the show 23:43, 28 March 2005 (EST)

Anyone know what the little flashy dots are directly above and below the viewscreen are? I am curious what they are for, they appear on pretty much every ship in the star trek universe but I have never heard what their purpose is other than make that little beepy noise every couple seconds. --BMS 00:17, 4 Jan 2005 (CET)


Has it ever been explained canonicaly how the view screen provides a 360 degree view of the ship? Cameras obviously but has it ever been delved into further? The cameras themselves would have to be pretty impressive to main a 10^6 focus.

I can't remeber the specific referance, but there is at least one occasion in both TNG and VOY where the respective Captain order's a specific camera (ie aft port, or something of that liking) be put on screen. Jaz talkFile:United Federation of Planets logo.png 03:13, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
