What is the transwarp threshold?

What is the transwarp threshold?

The transwarp threshold (also known as the maximum warp barrier or the transwarp barrier) was a boundary that separated warp from transwarp and was identified in the 24th century as the velocity of warp 10. In 2372, Tom Paris became the first Human to cross the transwarp threshold in the Class 2 shuttle Cochrane.

Is transwarp possible?

Yes. Transwarp is just a faster system than whatever standard warp drive was at any given time. the excelsior wasn’t a failure and the transwarp of Kirk’s era was the standard Warp of Picard’s era. You’ll note nacelle design changes match this.

How much faster is transwarp?

Transwarp speeds

Travel method Average speed (× c) Travel time
Transwarp corridor ~104,000 n/a
Transwarp conduit 876,000 about fifteen minutes
Transwarp coil 1,000,000 – 10,000,000 some days
Transwarp network Transwarp hub > 250,000,000 around five minutes

Did Paris and Janeway mate?

Near the shuttle, they discover two amphibian beings, with trace DNA of Paris and Janeway. The two have mated and have had three offspring. The crew members recover their transformed Janeway and Paris to be returned to human form by the Doctor, and leave the offspring behind.

What’s the difference between warp and transwarp?

Transwarp generally refers to speeds and technologies that are beyond conventional warp drives. The warp drive has a natural physical or economical limit beyond which higher speeds are no longer possible.

Is quantum slipstream faster than transwarp?

TL;DR (too long, didn’t read): Transwarp is at least as fast as Quantum Slipstream and probably twice as fast and that’s the main reason the Borg prefer to use it despite them having assimilated Quantum Slipstream technology.

What is the highest warp in Star Trek?

The warp drive has a natural physical or economical limit beyond which higher speeds are no longer possible. The reference work Star Trek Fact Files indicates this limit at warp factor 9.99. This is the highest conventional warp speed mentioned for a spaceship (Borg cube).

Which is faster quantum slipstream or transwarp?

Is Threshold a canon?

At best its been called “that silly warp 10 episode.” Over the years I’ve been one of those voices who have piled on this episode, but much like my newfound appreciation for Star Trek V, I now believe that “Threshold” is not only canon, but is in fact the best episode of any Star Trek series*.

Is Warp 10 possible?

Warp factor 10-. According to Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual (p. 55), the ship didn’t actually achieve warp 10 or go beyond it, but it did travel at the extreme speed of about Warp 9.9999999996. This was confirmed in “Threshold” in which Tom Paris becomes the first Human to travel at warp 10.

Does Transwarp use Dilithium?

According to the Pocket Books novel Battlestations!, instead of the dilithium crystals the Federation transwarp drive engine design utilized solid trilithium that retains integrity for workable periods of time.

Is slipstream faster than warp?

Bottom line: Slipstream velocity is much faster than warp velocity.

What is sharpness Threshold?

This means that a feature/detail of the subject must be at least one level apart (e.g. the difference between a RGB value of 200/200/200 and 201/201/201) before sharpening will be applied. Traditionally a sharpening threshold is used to avoid sharpening noise.
