Re: space stations
I'll have to try that!  Have a station in the middle of the black hole, and watch the other ships get sucked in and destroyed... or wait, I guess it they're enemy then maybe combat happens first, and then they'll get destroyed.
Does the black hole do 5000 points of damage each turn? Well, if organic armor III has a damage resistance of 150 kT then you'll need 5000 / 150 = 33.3 (round up to 34) pieces of armor. Now, does organic armor repair itself completely each turn even when there's no combat? It did not used to, but I'm not sure if it does with the latest patch. If the armor doesn't automatically repair itself, we'll also need 5 repair bay III's.

Re: space stations
It think it only gets repaired after combat. Black holes do not do combat damage.
5 Repair Bay IIIs are a small price to pay for imperial ego!

- I believe that was a ship, not a station.
- It wasn't that bad... for Disney... in the seventies.
- The Novelization isn't bad either, and makes some more sense out of the ending.

No, just send the USS Voyager in, fire some modified photon torpedoes at the event horizon to break a hole in it!

Re: space stations
Or any of the various Enterprises... or the Defiant or those runabouts from DS9... pretty much any ship in the history of ST with a main character on it.

They didn't do that.... did they?
That is so wrong.
