Continuity mistake: Data's insignia pips are backwards in the first scene as he is talking to Picard on the bridge.
Continuity mistake: When Deanna is trying to seduce Riker, she scratches him and there are three deep scratches on his neck. Later, when Doctor Crusher treats him, one of the scratches is now on his cheek, and only two are on his neck.






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.
