The movie was ruined for me when he launches a rocket into a star that looks to be about 1au away and the rocket gets there in like 15 seconds. Dont tell me that ish was warp-capable.
And if it was 1au away, it takes about 8 minutes for sunlight to reach earth. So if there were any visual changes to the star they wouldn’t be able to see them for a few minutes
This is so correct, and upon reflection adds to the bad effect.
We don’t know the size of the star he blew up so we can’t know how far away he is. Maybe it’s a small star and they’re really close. Also why can’t the missile have warp? Dreadnaught, the missile reprogrammed by B’Elanna, was warp capable and it was designed and built a couple years before Soran tries to return to the Nexus.
Soren hasn’t got the time for thirst-trap Klingons.
± what?
Give or take. His species lives for centuries and I’m sure they lose track after a while.
I suspect the person you responded to understood the context, but was cheekily calling out the “technically incorrect” usage of ±
The ± symbol requires a tolerance value to create a defined maximum and minimum range, e.g 300±20 (so Soran could be anything between 280 and 320)
it doesn’t mean “approximately”
But I understand this is just an inconsequential funny picture, so whatever right.
it doesn’t mean “approximately”
They should have wrote ~300 if they wanted approximately 300.
Exactly :)
The unit (years) is also missing.
Well, that part at least I don’t think is necessary. It’s a parody of a dating app, and it seems from searching screenshots the real app doesn’t have units either - just the number.
Which is just fine, because the number next to someone’s name being their age is clear from context.
