    VOY is the most scientifically illiterate of all Trek series. They tried to sound at least as “sciency” as TNG, but:

    • They spent half a season searching ores on planets while mentioning a gas
    • They invented the “iso-” pseudo prefix to hide they didn’t understand the metric system (in a prior episode they were alarmed by a cosmic event generating as little pressure as 10 atmospheres).

      Are you forgetting Discovery’s space tardigrade? and the mycelial network?

        Personally I find that show to be unwatchable.

        I consider Discovery in its own disaster category. They didn’t even try to make sense.

        Voyager had at least a veneer of palatable Trek. Sometimes.

      Shall we talk about their continual shortage of deuterium? Possibly the second most common substance in the universe!

        Aren’t they looking for anti deuterium?

      Oof ya if you’re going for scientific accuracy I wouldn’t rate it very high either.
