FYI, you're just quoting some technobabble.
Back in reality there were popular magazines like Discover that would have flashy covers about things like ROUGE PLANETS! Mostly just sensationalism.
Some semi-unemployed Hollywood writer would be paging through these while smoking out and get inspiration for a script. That is Star Trek's scientific insight.
And I'm a trek fan. OP probably just doesn't know a lot of this stuff was "ripped from the headlines" (of popular science magazines).
- baxtr 8y agoYes, you’re right. I think it’s fun though :-) sci-fi is by its nature just technobabble, see the annoying protomolecule stuff in “The Expanse”
