MAIN
ENGINEERING
On taking the
stairs down
from the Main Deck, you will find yourself on the Engineering Deck. At
the front of the Engineering Deck is Main Engineering. Here you will
find
M/ARA Mark II warp reactor, as well as consoles and displays on
Starship
technology. These include detailed information on warp drives and
impulse
engines, and their components. In addition to the theory and
application
of these technologies in the Trek universe, the displays also feature
information
on how these technologies relate to current real-life science and
engineering
- and how these technologies may even some day become a reality.
There is also a
technical
database console which features a glossary of almost every conceivable
technical term in the Star Trek Universe - from Annular Confinement
Beam
up to Zero Point Energy!
And talking about
technical
terms, Main Engineering also features a Treknobabble Generator -
impress/annoy
friends with this display that generates the most inane
pseudo-scientific
gibberish! There is also a downloadable program available so you too
can
create your own mind-numbing Treknobabble combinations!
