Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Star Trek when it first came out when I was a kid.

I just have to remember that science is sometimes "overlooked" for the sake of entertainment.

I can recall my brother pissed at me for "questioning" how the X-Wings and TIE fighters in Star Wars could fly like atmospheric aircraft in the vacumn of space. He was adamant that it could happen.

I guess you have to "dumb down" physics or the general audience would not get it.
