Season 1, Episode 1
4/10
The Care Taker
2 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Mid-level for Star Trek. VOYAGER is the 3rd installment of THE NEXT GENERATION period series. And at least 1 NEXT GENERATION movie. Not to mention 7 (6 1/2) TOS movies. I won't get into the novellas/novels/books/manuals/fanzines/fanbooks, etc.

(1) First, why would The Caretaker need a mate? What happened to cloning? What was he/she doing for a thousand years?

(2) Why is a star craft that can cross galaxies not artificially intelligent. Capable of manning itself?

(3) How can millennials old beings not terraform a planet? A feat within the reach of late 24th century Federalists, Klingons, Romulans, Ferengi, Cardassians, etc.

(4) Why can't The Caertaker/s upload his/her consciousness(es) into The Array, itself? Ala THE SCHIZOID MAN.

(5) Why didn't The Caretakers build a space armada for the Ocompans? And marshall an Ocompan army? And finally,

(6) Why didn't The Caretaker(s), at least, form an Ocompan-Telaxian alliance. Telaxians, a displaced, merchant, delta-quadrant-space faring, peace loving people. Yet ready to defend themselves & others.

These are the questions Trekkies, THE most dedicated fans in history or at least America, asked.
