Talk:Plasma torpedo

Hypotheticals

Perhaps the plasma torpedo is designed to be "attracted" to the subspace field of a starship and somehow interact with the target's warp field to pursue it. It apparently closes the distance very slowly when doing so, but this hypothesis would explain how it was able to follow when the Enterprise ran away at "emergency warp". If not launched from close enough, the torpedo won't be able to "ride the wake" of the fleeing ship to close and destroy it. --Ted C (talk) 12:48, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
