Did you know
- TriviaIldis (Robert Picardo) tells Captain Mercer they've far superior doctors on the planet than on the Union ship. Likely a nod to the fact that 2 of the guest stars, (Robert Picardo and John Billingsley), both played doctors on past Star Trek shows, Picardo on Star Trek: Voyager (1995), and Billingsley, Enterprise (2001).
- GoofsIf the shuttle could be protected from the gravity on Alara's home planet with a 'gravity shield', why couldn't the 'artificial gravity' in Alara's quarters be adjusted to her normal home planet's gravity?
- Quotes
Lt. Gordon Malloy: Are you going to be okay?
Ildis Kitan: Alara took care of it.
Lt. Gordon Malloy: She always does.

True Science Fiction
Truly great sci-fi. Great storytelling, great characters, great special effects, bright. To All the naysayers I'm not sure what they want in sci-fi. Sci-fi isn't just people shooting each other all the time with high-tech weapons.
If you have a withdrawal of watching aliens and humans kill each other with high-tech weapons go ahead and watch the other 99% of Hollywood Sci-Fi Productions. I gave this episode 10 out of 10, because it's the Oroville it automatically gets a 9 out of 10.
