| Dec 4, 2019 at 23:32 | comment | added | Valorum | @Morgan - You should see my Star Wars archive. 3000+ books of various types including junior readers, magazines, artbooks, novels, comics, scripts, etc. It's about 200gb | |

| Dec 4, 2019 at 22:30 | comment | added | NKCampbell | by general adherence to the Prime Directive, any civilization Starfleet intends to make first contact with has, by definition, progressed to warp travel w/out outside intervention | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 22:22 | comment | added | Valorum | @Morgan - I have about fifty actual books (mostly factbooks and blueprint archives) and about 1200 ebooks of various types. I manage the latter with a piece of software called Calibre-Ebook | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 22:10 | comment | added | Morgan | @Valorum You have an actual Star Trek library? Is that a custom built library or what? Is that online or actual books? | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 22:06 | comment | added | Valorum | @Morgan - A quick look through my Star Trek library reveals at least 50 book matches for the terms "developed warp", "discovered warp" and "invented warp" and dozens of races who claim that distinction including the Vulcans, the Trill, The Andorians, etc etc | |

| Dec 4, 2019 at 21:18 | comment | added | Morgan | @Valorum I have to admit that I'm not familiar with the EU literature but thought it would be adventitious to not restrict the question so narrowly as to elicit a pithy, "We don't know" answer. If novels and the like can shed some light on the question, I think that value added. There are people here far more knowledgeable about ST lore than I so encourage them to share what they know. In any case the number of self taught FTL developers should be quite small. | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 21:05 | comment | added | Valorum | A) It's not really clear how a lot of the species developed warp drive and b) Accepting answers from "all sources" makes this wicked broad. | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 20:50 | comment | added | Morgan | @Cadence I'm open to all sources of information. | |
| Dec 4, 2019 at 20:42 | comment | added | Cadence | What sorts of sources are you looking for? Just the shows/movies, or would novels and the like be acceptable? | |
