Trivia:
The shuttle craft was built by AMT in exchange for them gaining the rights to make the toy version. more
Goofs:
Miscellaneous: Although the Galileo makes an emergency launch from the planet's surface with only enough fuel to make one orbit before decaying to a fiery reentry of the planet's surface, the "special effects" clearly show the Galileo flying through interstellar space. Primitive as the special effects are considered by today's standards, orbital versus interstellar graphics were correctly used throughout most of the other regular episodes. more
Quotes:
Scott: What a mess.
Spock: Picturesque descriptions will not mend broken circuits, Mr. Scott.

Vulcan's Logic Rules The Day, 16 February 2006
9/10
Author: Hal-900 from WA, USA

"The Galileo Seven" has always been one of my favorite Star Trek episodes. I know "City on the Edge of Forever" is the one show often cited as the best Star Trek episode, but I think "Galileo Seven" is almost as good. It is an interesting show because it reverses the series' formula in an interesting manner. In most Star Trek adventures, Spock serves as a harsh critic of human behavior. But in this episode, we get a chance to examine Spock's logic and see how effective (and practical) the Vulcan's ideology really is under pressure. I did think the story goes a little overboard in demonstrating the differences between the emotional humans and the cold Vulcan. However, the episode does make more than a few interesting observations on how leaders must use their intellect and heart in order to make sensible decisions. I have no doubts that this is indeed one of the show's best offerings. Highly recommended.
