Timeline for In what TOS episode did Spock use a prop known as an analog flight computer, and why did he need to turn to a "handheld device" in this case?

| Apr 16 at 3:42 | comment | added | lucasbachmann | It may be worth noting that Dax when trying to calculate a rapid acceleration problem is using the computer to calculate warp 3 stuff and then Bashir chimes in with an Impulse calculation when trying to calculate how fast they can escape from a base with its shield up around them. Presumably Spock is somewhere above Dax. Hard to say how he compares to Bashir. youtu.be/2aH2HoWcdrE?si=O_-SjzHdZhqdkxoO | |
