Star Trek: The Next Generation

The Enemy - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: When Geordi falls down the hole in the beginning of the episode his visor is seen to his right. When he wakes up he finds it to his left.

The Enemy - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: After Wesley makes his neutrino pulse suggestion, Picard tells him to go do it. Wesley walks off camera. Then there's a commercial break, and Wesley is back on the bridge in the long shots. A few minutes later we hear the turbo-lift and Wesley walks back onto the bridge.

Timescape - S6-E25

Revealing mistake: As Picard goes to check the fuel consumption logs his right hand is in a closed fist. When he sits at a console and uses his right hand it already has the long nails he will get in the next few minutes when he reaches for the rotten fruit. (00:11:00)

Scotty: [to Holodeck Computer] The Enterprise. Show me the bridge of the Enterprise, ya chatterin' piece o'...
Computer: There have been five Federation vessels with that name. Please state by registry number.
Scotty: [slowly] N, C, C, 1, 7, 0, 1. No bloody A, B, C, or D.

Trivia: Another joke from the set designers: whenever someone is in the Jeffries Tubes, you will see several pipes on the walls labeled "GNDN" this stands for "Goes Nowhere, Does Nothing."

Question: Were people able to "lock" the Holodeck doors so that others couldn't just walk in on them? I don't recall an episode where the doors were locked that wasn't because of some malfunction. It seems like Lieutenant Barclay, for example, would either lock the doors during his "fantasies" or have some "fail-safe" that shuts the program off when being walked in on. Otherwise, it's just a really dumb thing to do (for him or anyone playing out a fantasy) knowing they could easily be caught.

Answer: Prior to the supernova, English script "three point eight billion kilometers", German script "3.8 Milliarden km" speed of light in vacuum c = 299,792,458 m/s 3.8 billion km = 3,800,000,000 km = 3,800,000,000,000 m (3,800 = 3.8 thousand, 3,800,000 = 3.8 million, 3,800,000,000 = 3.8 billion) in physics formula c represents speed aka. Velocity = v, s means distance (abbreviation not known to me), t = time v = s/t v * t = s t = s/v v = 299,792,458 m/s s = 3,800,000,000,000 m 3,800,000,000,000 m / 299,792,458 m/s = 12,675.435617529778 s = 3.5 hours The impression in the scene could be convincing of 1-5 minutes prior to seeing the supernova, and not 3.5 hours. I would argue in order to give them the benefit of the doubt they would have to be either less specific about the distance travelled or more respectful of c. The movement of the spaceship aka. Matter in this case being faster than c is implied to be part of the fictional part of sci-fi and not a logical oversight on my end. c is constant.

Sorry, this was meant as "mistake" under episode "Tin Man." Not familiar with the buttons here.

Answer: Yes. The doors to the holodecks can be locked when in use by anyone aboard the Enterprise so they couldn't be disturbed. However, high ranking officers like Captain Picard could override the doors as it's seen that overrides are in use even for the crews quarters. Even Barclay, when he's indulging in one of his fantasies could have the doors to the holodeck unlocked by an override code.
