Star Trek v Star Wars

No. It allows for a warp in Space/Time, but not a warp bubble. Once the bubble was established it would cease to exist with our universe of space/time.

And become part of it again once it bursts?

In what way is it not ST? You've got Worf and O'Brien transferred from the Enterprise, the Federation, Klingons, Cardassians, Romulans etc.

in the way that it was awful. Pedestrian, hackneyed, sterile and soulless. Shallow characters, dull enemies and pointless plots. DS9 should be deleted from the ST canon.

Fair point although it was long time ago and a galaxy far, far away...

Which one is better? There is only one way to find out: FIGHT![^] For me, it's Star Wars [IV - VI].
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett
Erm lets see ... when did you ever see a light saber on "stun" .....

Neither of them are science fiction. They both require FTL travel, which is impossible, therefore rendering them both within the confines of Fantasy.

People said the same thing before, about the earth being round.

But dont Neutrino's travel faster than the speed of light? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-15791236
It's still controversial. There's a lot of room for mistake in this case. In any case, to me "not yet" is just as good of an answer to something deemed impossible.

No brainer for me! Star Wars all the way baby! :D I don't dislike Star Trek, but it never quite got my attention like Star Wars did when I was a kid :)
It's an OO world.

Also, the Alternative Universe in DS9 is the same AU that Kirk went to in TOS. Their history is badly affected by the influence that Kirk had on their culture whilst he was there. My favourite ST series was 'Enterprise' - shame it was cancelled before the plot lines could be developed. :-O

I fail to comprehend your indignation, sir. I've simply made the logical deduction that you are a liar.

Yeah, took me a while to get into 'Enterprise' cause it didn't have all the cool technology, but I was really enjoying it be the time it ended.
