another good example of this is big bang theory, the science dialog contained within the show is all very basic and probably known by anyone who has evan the smallest passing interest in popular science , but the piont is the interactoin for the characters is why people watch it not the Quite frankly pore science speech.
It would be nice if you could watch big bang ore star trek ore maby star gate and learn something new. but oh well it seems that scifi writers are bigger on philosophy than they are science. i guess philosophy dose not require any for knowledge by an audience ore infact thay could not understand ore notice the philisiphy at all and yet still enjoy whats hapaning. where if something was to use science it would have to be corect and understood and if it wasent it wud just fall apart for the majorty of the retarded audeance. that in the end buy the shit products advertized in the brake. that ultimatly funded the program int he first place.
Might as well just kill myself

yah the avn is a nob nothing in star trek is confusing ore over you head ore anyone head its all very simplistic. yes there is alot of BS and invented things but that dose not make them hard to understand the "scientific" concepts within are star trek are all very basic. The fact is if u going to have something that's for a large audience you would fail if you steped beyond the most basic of established popular science.

>> ^Ornthoron:
He left out the episode where they are trapped inside a black hole, and use a tachyon beam as a crowbar to force a hole in the event horizon so they can get out.
But #3 was made to be fucked up. Watching an extra five seconds into the clip you'll hear Riker say he made it all up to impress the Ferengi.
Eh, overall, it just sucked.
There are series that abuse technobabble and fake technology, but Star Trek really wasn't one of them. The beauty of Star Trek (specifically, TNG and onwards) was that all of their science was theoretically possible, based on our current knowledge.
Of course, once reason that it sounds a bit like "technobabble" is because they attempt to dumb down the ideas enough to fit into the episode. It wouldn't do any good for them to launch into a technical description on quantum reality and n-dimensional physics during a one hour episode, now would it? I mean, then we wouldn't have any time for the actual fiction part of the show.
A tachyon is a theoretical particle that has no mass, and may therefore exceed the speed of light (or possibly escape a black hole.) That's why you always hear them used in relation to black holes, gravity anomalies and FTL travel.
*shrug* So what if tachyons may not exist? That's part of the fun of fiction.

BLACK HOLES DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT!

Most Trek technobabble from TNG was pretty well done, and while some of it was science word salad (e.g. subatomic fluctuations with lepton and meson activity), it's usually a lot more comprehensible than computers in 24.
I'd love to see someone put together a compilation of crackpot shit that they've said or done with computers in 24.
