  • Being that this is a Star Trek post I’ll just add this.

    Lt. Cmdr. Data: “Sir, our sensors are showing this to be the absence of everything. It is a void without matter or energy of any kind.”

    Commander Riker: “Yet this hole has a form, Data; it has height, width…”

    Lt. Cmdr. Data: “Perhaps. Perhaps not, Sir.”

    Captain Picard: “That’s hardly a scientific observation, Commander.”

    Lt. Cmdr. Data: “Captain, the most elementary and valuable statement in science, the beginning of wisdom, is, “I do not know”. I do not know what that is, Sir.”

















  • This is almost the exact experience I had playing Elite Dangerous in VR one time. I had my HOTAS mounted to the arms of my office chair so the whole setup could swivel. One day I was sitting in orbit over a planet researching a route or something. Ship sounds going in the headphones, comms coming in every now and then, then out of nowhere for just a brief moment I was in space flying that ship. I wish so badly that I could extend that feeling.
