Anyway, the two risk their lives against the super-soldier even though that needn’t have been the case. The solution they came to was beaming down Spock and then Uhura…onto a speeding vehicle which is apparently doable. I doubt he is even moving as fast as Kirk and Sulu when they fell to the surface of Vulcan in the previous film. They are on the Enterprise and have trouble teleporting Khan on board because he is…moving about? He certainly isn’t moving at warp speed. Teleporting through space with this level of precision was an innovation acquired in the previous scene so my expectations have been understandably raised for the rest of the franchise.įast forward to ‘ Star Trek: Into Darkness.’ Our heroes want to apprehend Khan first for revenge and then for a shot at saving their Captain. Take the first film of the Chris Pine cast: Scotty and Kirk beam from underground an ice planet to the Enterprise traveling at warp speed. I wouldn’t be the first to point out that the functionality of the technology maddening varies based on the requirements of the plot. In ‘Star Trek,’ transporters can dematerialize people or things in one location and rematerialize them elsewhere.
They just have a huge blindspot: the power of teleportation.
They are among the smartest collection of people in fiction. Does it bother anyone else that the characters of ‘Star Trek’ regularly overlook the obvious solution? They’re not stupid.
