I just wrote this because people were asking in some other forums-its a lot to remember. I swear that everthing in Star Trek has an abbreviation. Phaser is an abbreviation, and so is LCARS.

i know phaser is an abreviation its PHASEd Energy Rectification. but phasers shorter and eiasier to pronounce. LCARS Library Computer Access and Retrievel System. so i agree with u.

Is WARP an abreviation?
Faster-Than-Light travel is "FTL travel".

Title: Symbol Guide
Post by: Lumpybob on November 04, 2004, 06:11:01 PM

EPS is Electro-Plsama System

What about PHASER(PHASed Energy Rectifier)?

Title: Symbol Guide
Post by: cts006 on November 14, 2004, 05:08:25 AM

Already had phaser and i dont think Warp is an abreveation, its more of a description of it self.

I saw GCS - Galaxy Class Ship and
Klinks - Klingons somewhere.
I want an abbreviation for Photon Torpedo. Photorp, maybe? PT? Phot? PTorp?

And Warp is not an abbreviation. It's a description of how the drive works.
