The best part of the whole thing is that it worked. I wonder what the Romulans thought when they saw it.
It's like that whole Tumblr post about humans sticking warp cores together lol
For the uninitiated: "The United Federation of Hold my Beer."
Yes, that explains what Humans bring to the table: sheer, ill-informed, unbridled, un-jaded, undistilled, optimism.
It also explains why Voyager sports bio-neural components that can't handle cheese, why 1701-D is comically oversized compared to its crew compliment, why outfitting the entire Federation fleet with recycled Borg tech got the green light, and why bridge workstations have a failure mode that kills the operator with heavy-metal concert pyrotechnics the moment it's shaken too hard. Nobody told them they couldn't do that, so they did.
Tal Shiar bout to go do some "business research"
And the brains behind the operation?
Of course, Riker had best keep his mouth shut about the whole thing.
I feel like I recognize that guy but I'm not sure who he is... who is he?
Erik Pressman who captained the USS Pegasus. Real piece of work. Also John Locke in Lost, where this gif is from.
You would have thought that the Federation could have used it during the Dominion War. A cloak so powerful you can't even be shot at?
I would think the romulans would have some questions.
Hey Starfleet, you developed that cloak awfully fast even though you weren't supposed to be researching it until five days ago.
Uhh we're just better ig
The alliance with the Romulans during the war was tenuous at best. They never could have swung that. At minimum they would have needed to share the tech.
