Military ships do this type of thing all the time for underway replenishment. it's called "Relative Motion". If both objects are moving at the exact same speed and course, relatively they are stationary. If you and a friend are walking down the street going the exact same direction at the exact same speed, You can hand objects back and forth without problem. Same principle here.

Probes (and torpedoes) don't use traditional warp engines, they use sustainer engines that allow them to hold a warp field and thus speed from a launching vessel. If that field is lost, they can't recreate it, nor can they change their speed other than dropping out of warp entirely. A much simplier technology that doesn't require something large and complex like a warp core.
@@user-jt5vm3mi1w Probes use a "Warp Sustainer" that can't generate a warp field, but keeps it from falling apart. That allows it to stay at warp for a long time with very little power draw. On Enterprise, the escape pods have no such "Warp Sustainer", so they will slow to sub-light speeds.
It effectively IS a photon torpedo without a warhead. Probes are very often torpedo casings with the warhead removed. Torpedoes and probes are fired off with a warp field and their casings contain a systainer engine that maintains the warp field but cannot generate a new one, allowing it to be much smaller at the cost of not being independently able to go to warp.
@@MiningForPies Would it though? Not without the transporter reconfiguring the probe on rematerialisation right? Assuming Alcubierre and Harold White's theories are applied in star trek a warp field is created through positive and negative energy creating expansion of space behind the craft and reduction of space in front of it. So whatever systems were producing this field in the probe would have to stop operating immediately after transport.
@@guidosalescalvano9862 the probe didn’t have warp engines and wasn’t able to create its own field. It was sent out at warp. Once the field generated by sending (not explained) was collapsed the probe has no way of re creating it.
Interesting how Starfleet can beam a probe travelling at high warp and without any interference from the tractor beam, and yet can't beam an away team out when there's a bit of dust in the air... 😒
It's space. Speed is relative. If a ship traveling at warp 9 fired it forward, it should be traveling at warp 9 plus the acceleration of the rocket it was fired with. Or something. What's more confusing, how did everybody speak English on Stargate SG1 without universal translators.
@@TatteredToys At warp 9 you're traveling faster than light. The physics of inertia don't apply when considering both the warp bubble and the surrounding space. The probe needs its own warp drive or it will just fall out of the warp bubble and end up going much slower than light.
@@quinton1661 according to physics, nothing can go faster than the speed of light…. Other than empty space. We are basically debating the logic of the magic kingdom. As to that, I think my English as a language across the Milky Way galaxy is a bigger plot hole given dr Jackson’s entire point in the star gate movie was as a translator.
They have shown before that tractor beams can somewhat cancel out the effects of a warp drive and additionally warp drives wont even engage in confined spaces with an atmosphere due to not being able to make a stable warp field
I think the probe should've been longer than two metres as it also had to hold the warp drive unit, navigation and life support plus our own type 48 torpedoes are about 3.8 metres long. The type 93 torpedo from WWII was 9 metres long. Our communication satellites can be as large as 7 metres across with solar panels extending 50 metres so even a ten metres long probe would be more reasonable than a two metre long probe especially given that it was transporting a person as payload.
They dont have navigation nor warp drive, like saucer section they only have warp field sustainer to keep warp field going for limited time so speed and course is provided by ship launching probe. Nevertheless whole operation make no sense they are in federation space traveling from star base not smuggling someone from enemy territory so they could use normal ship.
@@Pedgo1986 Without FTL, what are the chances of an escape pod or the saucer section actually reaching a safe destination like a planet or a moon yet TOS, TNG, Voyager, Deep Space Nine and Enterprise all show survivors reaching such harbour and only Enterprise ever showed survivors stranded in space though one TOS episode showed the Galileo stranded in a temporary planetary orbit after using phaser power to fuel it's presumably sublight drive. I'm suggesting these inconsistencies might be solved if the warp bubble was actually just due to the warp plasma being present and circulated in resonate chambers such as nacelles to sustain a warp field and it was only the matter antimatter reactor with the dilithium regulation that would be required to produce the warp plasma. We know from several episodes that warp plasma can be stored and even transported so this could be similar to fireless steam locomotives where the steam is simply stored in an insulated container with the steam generated by a stationary boiler facility. Fireless steam locomotives were used to move cars around in a rail yard. This would also explain how low warp was achieved before dilithium was found as Earth presumably has no dilithium reserves, the warp plasma could've been made at stationary power plants which would be much larger to either regulate the power of matter antimatter reactions without the use of dilithium or generate enough power from other sources. It would also explain how we saw a shuttle craft chasing the Enterprise at warp in TOS, the shuttle craft shown on Star Trek The Motion Picture was said explicitly to be a warp shuttle craft and was shown separating from it's nacelles but the one that Kirk used to chase Spock in TOS Menagerie was just a stock shuttle craft or at least it was never said or shown to be any different from a stock shuttlecraft. Also, they have shown shuttle crafts searching a Star's planetary system for survivors several times in TOS which would take decades without FTL. Also, it's said that once moving at warp, the saucer section would remain in warp if separated during warp speed so though it may not be able to propel itself at warp, it can sustain the warp bubble. Also our own investigations into the Alcubierre drive separates the warp bubble from the actual propulsion and presumes that some alternate form of conventional propulsion is first needed before the warp bubble is created or some method of propelling the warp bubble after being created which would be problematic as the interior of the bubble is basically a separate pocket of space unable to interact with what's outside the bubble. The White May Alcubierre drive experiment by NASA assumes the warp bubble can be created and shaped by circulating specific exotic matter in a torus. Not requiring the full matter antimatter reactor with dilithium just to maintain warp would address the inconsistencies shown in the TV episodes and the lore problem of warp being discovered on Earth while dilithium has been shown to be mined on other planets but never described as being found or synthesized on Earth. It could also provide limited warp after the burn destroying most dilithium in Discovery. Keep in mind that photon torpedoes and probes do not have matter antimatter reactors or nacelles yet still travel at warp speeds, the probe in TNG was even said to be capable of a specific high warp. Also, the only shuttle crafts that have been explicitly said and shown to have a matter antimatter reactor with dilithium power regulation has been the run about shown in Deep Space Nine and once on TNG and the reactor is shown to be externally mounted on top of the spacecraft.
@@johnwang9914 All i can say to you is download a read official technical guide. I did not created lore and however it is illogical it was creates that way and bended over and over for plot sake like i think saucer section already contain small warp core it just need nacelle even inferior one like freighter for low warp speed, Voyager have two warp cores in schematics one as spare yet they go again and again on suicide mission to save used core and that nose of Defiant is big torpedo :D Nevertheless no matter how entertaining is debating this ultimately it is irrelevant its fictional technology in fictional world we don't have real basis to compare or whatever so we are creating our own fiction to fill gaps in fiction. Also you must compromise between realism and plot going too deep become only confusing for audience. Mi biggest grip story wise is Federation allowing settling planets in DMZ and then everyone is surprised it create friction and problems.
@@Pedgo1986 Sigh the "official technical guide" does not change the fact that a sublight escape pod or shuttle would never reach safe harbour on a distant planet or moon within the lifetime of a human never mind within rations and life support from stored oxygen, scrubbing chemicals and water. Also, the "official technical manual" does not explain how warp drive was developed when dilithium crystals are not found on Earth but mined from distant star systems, presumably with a higher metallic star such as the next generation from our own. I'm just saying they could explain these inconsistencies by saying the warp bubble only needed resonating warp plasma to generate and indeed the "official technical manual" for TNG describes the nacelles as resonating chambers, the TNG, Voyager and Enterprise episodes show warp plasma being stored and transported, our Alcubierre drive theories involve just having exotic materials circulate to produce the warp bubble (the energy costs are in achieving such exotic materials) and we have a precedent in fireless steam locomotives. As to dilithoum crystals, the TOS episodes and their "official" technical manual also state that dilithium crystals are just to regulate the immense energies of matter antimatter reactions. My postulations takes all the "official technical manuals" into account and is simply how the "lore" could be extended to explain the inconsistencies. Keep in mind that the "technical manuals" and much of the lore are created retroactively often by writers other than the ones introducing the inconsistencies and sometimes before yet other writers inadvertently introduce other inconsistencies. I'm not saying that my postulates would be followed by future writers or was what was intended by previous writers, I'm just saying this is a way it could fit together with what we've seen on screen so far. The fact that you just want to ignore the inconsistencies just show how little you want to consider the inconsistencies that have already arrived and is more a comment on you and your comprehension or lack thereof of current science. Yes, in fiction, you sometimes have to just hand wave the inconsistencies aside, I'm just saying that many (almost all in Star Trek) do not have to just be ignored as inconsolable.
Thatsvsome miniaturization. If the person is small, Letz say 1,60m, then we have only around 40cm^3 left for life support, computer, sensors and the engine (which apparently is faster then most starship). Even for star trek tech that's a bit off the charts
Photon torpedoes (and probe classes that use their design as a base like the 8, amongst others) use a warp sustainer engine. The torpedo itself is not capable of generating warp thrust but can sustain a field, meaning that when they are launched, they maintain the warp velocity of the vessel which launched them.
They brought it inside their warp bubble, so relative velocity is nill. They still locked a tractor beam on it to ensure they canceled out all movement, as transporters don't like high relative velocities.
So the probe is actively doing warp 9, and you just beam it into the transporter room? Would it have killed you to command it to stop first in the name of the plot?
@@kinbolluck476 The warp drive operates by warping spacetime around the vehicle - Shrinking space in front of it, and expanding space behind it. What do you suppose that would do to the Enterprise if a ship was in the transporter room trying to warp spacetime at warp 9 inside the center of the ship?
The probe has no propulsion system. It has a system to "sustain the momentum" it was launched with in the void of space... generating a warp field. That momentum is negated by the tractor beam. So when it was beamed on board... it had no momentum.
Laugh at it once then read 1) It is a fiction, these kind of fancy terms sound good. 2) 360 is maximum degree, not coordinates. You need something more than just the angle to locate a precise position, with just the angle max you can get vector to the position. 3) Even for vector, 360 will give only in 2-D, in 3D you need 2 angles (eg azimuth and elevation, both can be 360,360)
Time was of the essence. The longer the old Klingon ship traveled assuming they were still in the past, the higher the risk of an incident. If someone else knew about it, the odds of setting off a chain reaction of misunderstandings drastically went up. Such misunderstandings could cause intergalactic diplomatic nightmares for years depending on who was involved.

@@user-jt5vm3mi1w Probes use a "Warp Sustainer" that can't generate a warp field, but keeps it from falling apart. That allows it to stay at warp for a long time with very little power draw. On Enterprise, the escape pods have no such "Warp Sustainer", so they will slow to sub-light speeds.
How does it go to warp? Also it looks just like a photon torpedoe
A starship traveling at high warp probably launched it.
Object in motion remains in motion.
It effectively IS a photon torpedo without a warhead. Probes are very often torpedo casings with the warhead removed. Torpedoes and probes are fired off with a warp field and their casings contain a systainer engine that maintains the warp field but cannot generate a new one, allowing it to be much smaller at the cost of not being independently able to go to warp.
0:06 Nice!

Wouldn't the tidal forces of the warp field of the probe rip the enterprise apart when they beamed it aboard?
No. The warp field would have collapsed the moment the probe was transported.
@@MiningForPies Would it though? Not without the transporter reconfiguring the probe on rematerialisation right? Assuming Alcubierre and Harold White's theories are applied in star trek a warp field is created through positive and negative energy creating expansion of space behind the craft and reduction of space in front of it. So whatever systems were producing this field in the probe would have to stop operating immediately after transport.
@@guidosalescalvano9862 the probe didn’t have warp engines and wasn’t able to create its own field. It was sent out at warp. Once the field generated by sending (not explained) was collapsed the probe has no way of re creating it.
@@MiningForPies Essentially like a gravitational wave?
No.
Interesting how Starfleet can beam a probe travelling at high warp and without any interference from the tractor beam, and yet can't beam an away team out when there's a bit of dust in the air... 😒
So what if you need to pee?
Is that ensign the same one as the admiral that cursed at Picard in season 1 of STP?
Sadly not, though they do share the same surname in-universe.
How do you get a wrap drive engine that can travel at wrap 9 into such a small probe?
Easy, you just talk to the writers. Needs of the plot.
Smaller coils built into the probe.
It's space. Speed is relative. If a ship traveling at warp 9 fired it forward, it should be traveling at warp 9 plus the acceleration of the rocket it was fired with. Or something.
What's more confusing, how did everybody speak English on Stargate SG1 without universal translators.
@@TatteredToys At warp 9 you're traveling faster than light. The physics of inertia don't apply when considering both the warp bubble and the surrounding space. The probe needs its own warp drive or it will just fall out of the warp bubble and end up going much slower than light.
@@quinton1661 according to physics, nothing can go faster than the speed of light…. Other than empty space. We are basically debating the logic of the magic kingdom. As to that, I think my English as a language across the Milky Way galaxy is a bigger plot hole given dr Jackson’s entire point in the star gate movie was as a translator.
The pilot is the admiral that swore at Picard in Picard season 1 I believe 🤔
The probe was filled with pizza😊
Who knew it was so windy in space...
Sounds like the person who posted this video had a fan on.
Looks like the tic tack UAP 😆
God damn! Don't watch this with headphones on, the warp engines are so loud the bass alone is like a concert.
If the probe was travelling at Warp Speed, why when it was beamed aboard the Enterprise did it not continue at Warp and rip through the ship.
They have shown before that tractor beams can somewhat cancel out the effects of a warp drive and additionally warp drives wont even engage in confined spaces with an atmosphere due to not being able to make a stable warp field
Because that's how the script was written
wait installing windows 95 usb B support.
I think the probe should've been longer than two metres as it also had to hold the warp drive unit, navigation and life support plus our own type 48 torpedoes are about 3.8 metres long. The type 93 torpedo from WWII was 9 metres long. Our communication satellites can be as large as 7 metres across with solar panels extending 50 metres so even a ten metres long probe would be more reasonable than a two metre long probe especially given that it was transporting a person as payload.
They dont have navigation nor warp drive, like saucer section they only have warp field sustainer to keep warp field going for limited time so speed and course is provided by ship launching probe. Nevertheless whole operation make no sense they are in federation space traveling from star base not smuggling someone from enemy territory so they could use normal ship.
@@Pedgo1986 Without FTL, what are the chances of an escape pod or the saucer section actually reaching a safe destination like a planet or a moon yet TOS, TNG, Voyager, Deep Space Nine and Enterprise all show survivors reaching such harbour and only Enterprise ever showed survivors stranded in space though one TOS episode showed the Galileo stranded in a temporary planetary orbit after using phaser power to fuel it's presumably sublight drive. I'm suggesting these inconsistencies might be solved if the warp bubble was actually just due to the warp plasma being present and circulated in resonate chambers such as nacelles to sustain a warp field and it was only the matter antimatter reactor with the dilithium regulation that would be required to produce the warp plasma. We know from several episodes that warp plasma can be stored and even transported so this could be similar to fireless steam locomotives where the steam is simply stored in an insulated container with the steam generated by a stationary boiler facility. Fireless steam locomotives were used to move cars around in a rail yard. This would also explain how low warp was achieved before dilithium was found as Earth presumably has no dilithium reserves, the warp plasma could've been made at stationary power plants which would be much larger to either regulate the power of matter antimatter reactions without the use of dilithium or generate enough power from other sources. It would also explain how we saw a shuttle craft chasing the Enterprise at warp in TOS, the shuttle craft shown on Star Trek The Motion Picture was said explicitly to be a warp shuttle craft and was shown separating from it's nacelles but the one that Kirk used to chase Spock in TOS Menagerie was just a stock shuttle craft or at least it was never said or shown to be any different from a stock shuttlecraft. Also, they have shown shuttle crafts searching a Star's planetary system for survivors several times in TOS which would take decades without FTL. Also, it's said that once moving at warp, the saucer section would remain in warp if separated during warp speed so though it may not be able to propel itself at warp, it can sustain the warp bubble. Also our own investigations into the Alcubierre drive separates the warp bubble from the actual propulsion and presumes that some alternate form of conventional propulsion is first needed before the warp bubble is created or some method of propelling the warp bubble after being created which would be problematic as the interior of the bubble is basically a separate pocket of space unable to interact with what's outside the bubble. The White May Alcubierre drive experiment by NASA assumes the warp bubble can be created and shaped by circulating specific exotic matter in a torus. Not requiring the full matter antimatter reactor with dilithium just to maintain warp would address the inconsistencies shown in the TV episodes and the lore problem of warp being discovered on Earth while dilithium has been shown to be mined on other planets but never described as being found or synthesized on Earth. It could also provide limited warp after the burn destroying most dilithium in Discovery. Keep in mind that photon torpedoes and probes do not have matter antimatter reactors or nacelles yet still travel at warp speeds, the probe in TNG was even said to be capable of a specific high warp. Also, the only shuttle crafts that have been explicitly said and shown to have a matter antimatter reactor with dilithium power regulation has been the run about shown in Deep Space Nine and once on TNG and the reactor is shown to be externally mounted on top of the spacecraft.
@@johnwang9914 All i can say to you is download a read official technical guide. I did not created lore and however it is illogical it was creates that way and bended over and over for plot sake like i think saucer section already contain small warp core it just need nacelle even inferior one like freighter for low warp speed, Voyager have two warp cores in schematics one as spare yet they go again and again on suicide mission to save used core and that nose of Defiant is big torpedo :D Nevertheless no matter how entertaining is debating this ultimately it is irrelevant its fictional technology in fictional world we don't have real basis to compare or whatever so we are creating our own fiction to fill gaps in fiction. Also you must compromise between realism and plot going too deep become only confusing for audience. Mi biggest grip story wise is Federation allowing settling planets in DMZ and then everyone is surprised it create friction and problems.
@@Pedgo1986 Sigh the "official technical guide" does not change the fact that a sublight escape pod or shuttle would never reach safe harbour on a distant planet or moon within the lifetime of a human never mind within rations and life support from stored oxygen, scrubbing chemicals and water. Also, the "official technical manual" does not explain how warp drive was developed when dilithium crystals are not found on Earth but mined from distant star systems, presumably with a higher metallic star such as the next generation from our own. I'm just saying they could explain these inconsistencies by saying the warp bubble only needed resonating warp plasma to generate and indeed the "official technical manual" for TNG describes the nacelles as resonating chambers, the TNG, Voyager and Enterprise episodes show warp plasma being stored and transported, our Alcubierre drive theories involve just having exotic materials circulate to produce the warp bubble (the energy costs are in achieving such exotic materials) and we have a precedent in fireless steam locomotives. As to dilithoum crystals, the TOS episodes and their "official" technical manual also state that dilithium crystals are just to regulate the immense energies of matter antimatter reactions. My postulations takes all the "official technical manuals" into account and is simply how the "lore" could be extended to explain the inconsistencies. Keep in mind that the "technical manuals" and much of the lore are created retroactively often by writers other than the ones introducing the inconsistencies and sometimes before yet other writers inadvertently introduce other inconsistencies. I'm not saying that my postulates would be followed by future writers or was what was intended by previous writers, I'm just saying this is a way it could fit together with what we've seen on screen so far. The fact that you just want to ignore the inconsistencies just show how little you want to consider the inconsistencies that have already arrived and is more a comment on you and your comprehension or lack thereof of current science. Yes, in fiction, you sometimes have to just hand wave the inconsistencies aside, I'm just saying that many (almost all in Star Trek) do not have to just be ignored as inconsolable.

If the person is small, Letz say 1,60m, then we have only around 40cm^3 left for life support, computer, sensors and the engine (which apparently is faster then most starship).
Even for star trek tech that's a bit off the charts
Warp 9 without a warp core 😂 love it
Photon torpedoes (and probe classes that use their design as a base like the 8, amongst others) use a warp sustainer engine. The torpedo itself is not capable of generating warp thrust but can sustain a field, meaning that when they are launched, they maintain the warp velocity of the vessel which launched them.

Also, load all the garbage on it. We haven't been to Space Dock in a month.
A tractor beam at warp 9? Are you crazy!
Only combine Talent of La Forge and O'Brian can accomplished that 😅
If the Enterprise was already alongside the probe and matched course & speed, them WHY engage tracor beam just to beam it aboard??? 🤨🤨🤨🤔🤔🤔
Wouldn't the probe still be traveling at warp after it was beamed aboard?
Hence tractor beam
They brought it inside their warp bubble, so relative velocity is nill. They still locked a tractor beam on it to ensure they canceled out all movement, as transporters don't like high relative velocities.
So you're telling me that tiny probe has a warp core & engines that allow it to travel at warp 9️⃣!! 🤨🤨
Dude, what's with all the constant bass?
Wasn't this Spok?
I don't have a probe of any class but I know that conn officer has at least class 8 I'd like to probe
You're right about one thing. You have no class.
I sure hope they remembered to disengage the probe's warp engines before beaming it aboard. 😬😬😬
So the probe is actively doing warp 9, and you just beam it into the transporter room? Would it have killed you to command it to stop first in the name of the plot?
They had engaged the tractor beam so, according to canon, had killed the momentum
@@Trek001 Momentum isn't the issue here. Having a running warp drive inside the transporter room is the issue here.
I DONT GET IT CAUSE THEYRE BOTH MOVING AT FAST SPEED
@@crackwitz It is using filters to detect weapons, viruses, explosives etc... so why not running warp drive?
@@kinbolluck476 The warp drive operates by warping spacetime around the vehicle - Shrinking space in front of it, and expanding space behind it. What do you suppose that would do to the Enterprise if a ship was in the transporter room trying to warp spacetime at warp 9 inside the center of the ship?
Damn it, man
You make have to go to Flixr and find the Episodes for all these.
May your testicles be infested with Klingon Sand Fleas!
How disappointing to cut it off at that point in the video
Glad the probe didn't continue to warp through the transporter room.
The probe has no propulsion system.
It has a system to "sustain the momentum" it was launched with in the void of space... generating a warp field.
That momentum is negated by the tractor beam.
So when it was beamed on board... it had no momentum.
@@varianschirmer9375 Thanks for pointing this out. Makes sense, and I absolutely missed it.
Coordinates 423? 360 is the top number for coordinates, because 360 degrees makes a full circle.
Laugh at it once then read 1) It is a fiction, these kind of fancy terms sound good. 2) 360 is maximum degree, not coordinates. You need something more than just the angle to locate a precise position, with just the angle max you can get vector to the position. 3) Even for vector, 360 will give only in 2-D, in 3D you need 2 angles (eg azimuth and elevation, both can be 360,360)
So what was in the Probe?

Time was of the essence. The longer the old Klingon ship traveled assuming they were still in the past, the higher the risk of an incident.
If someone else knew about it, the odds of setting off a chain reaction of misunderstandings drastically went up. Such misunderstandings could cause intergalactic diplomatic nightmares for years depending on who was involved.
