Ziemlich unlogisch, Mr. McCoy. Auch dieser Vergleich ist stark gehbehindert. Denn das Ausmaß der Galaxis können sogar wir sicher feststellen... da sollte man das beim Imperium, das immerhin das meiste davon beherrscht, erst recht können.

Naja, "Wir drücken den Knopf und der Planet macht bumm!" ist eine recht eindeutige Maßeinheit.

Es gibt mehrere Sternenzerstörer (Eclipse-Class), die das können... der Todesstern ist da wohl mehr ein Prestigeprojekt. Und zur Feuerkraft: Lies genau... ich zitiere.

"Planetary destruction: Death Star blast (roughly 20 billion trillion megatons, ie- the number "two" followed by 22 zeroes). Planet blown apart at 5% of the speed of light. Even if we assume the shot was time-lapse photography (not that there's any reason to), the absolute lower limit is roughly 50 quadrillion megatons. Note that even if you scale this monster down by a factor of 10 million (to the volume of a Star Destroyer), you'd still have 5 billion megatons. More than a match for poor Enterprise.

Was die Feuerkraft der Sternenflotten-Planetenzerstörung anbelangt:

"Planetary destruction: 30-ship bombardment in "The Die is Cast" (surface-level explosions create fireballs in the megaton range at most, judging from fireball duration). No sub-orbital ejecta launched from planet's surface at all."


Und der zentrale Satz: "Trekkies attempt to ignore weak-kneed appearance of attack and focus on semantics in order to exaggerate the figure." *gg*

Hihi. Q. Ihr ST-Fans seid so berechenbar...

Aus den FAQ:

"How do you account for omnipotent beings such as Q?

I don't need to. Q could probably blow up an Imperial vessel if he wanted to, but he's an enigma. His motives are a mystery, and there is no reason whatsoever to imagine that he'll come riding to the Federation's rescue. He's occasionally shown a hint of sympathy for humanity (when he wasn't threatening to exterminate us, which is no small caveat), but he has never demonstrated any interest in the system of government known as the Federation. Why would he care whether humanity is ruled by the fascist Empire or by the communist Federation? You could ask the same questions about any of the other "omnipotent" beings of Star Trek.

Besides, how do you know he's omnipotent? I find it fascinating that because Q does things which seem like magic, most people assume he must be omnipotent. That does not follow; we do things which would seem like magic to prehistoric savages, but we're not omnipotent. Why do we assume he's omnipotent? Has he ever destroyed a galaxy, for example? Has he ever created a sentient species? Has he ever reversed death? If he's omnipotent, then how could his powers be taken away from him, as they were in "Deja Q"? Why could Q continuum weapons be handled by humans, as we saw in Voyager? Q may be able to manipulate matter on a molecular level, live for an undetermined period of time, present himself in arbitrary forms, create convincing illusions and telepathic dream-states, and perform interesting feats such as adjusting lunar orbits, suppressing warp core breaches, time travel, or inducing a supernova, but that hardly amounts to omnipotence. All of those things could be accomplished by a combination of the technologies and telepathic abilities demonstrated by various "mere" mortals in Star Wars and Star Trek."
