Visions of Voyager

If we can reroute the sensors to the deflector dish, we should be able to detect the technobabble from astrometrics. (I wonder if there's any system that CAN'T be rerouted to the deflector dish. I imagine you could rig up one HECK of a sonic shower...) --Steelviper 10:43, 9 May 2007 (CDT)

Or ST:TNG, where Capt. Picard discovered another place to polish his own deflector. :) (Note that this was a RDM episode.) --Spencerian 11:36, 9 May 2007 (CDT)
