nice one. Good read. I hope Kirk does not pop up on the show. Perhaps Pike or that SheMale Second in command.

riddle me this:

The enterprise comes across a race that has both cloak and holo deck tech. They don't try to trade for either.
Yet they do trade the holo tech to the klingons without even asking the aliens if they would allow this.
Now lets jump 150 years into the future. kirk's time. The Fed has neither cloak or holo decks. The klingons have cloaks but no longer use holo desks.
What happen to the holo deck tech taht was installed on the klingon cruiser? did that captain not share this tech with the empire and it was lost?

[Coal]

No, the aliens only traded the holo tech, not the cloak. The Klingons got the cloak from the Romulans in Kirks time, in the alliance they briefly had. I think the Enterprise writers would have remembered that.

As for the holo, maybe the tech was too advanced for the Federation or Klingons to put onto their ships until 250 years later (TNG time). Most of the planets, ships and stations seen in TOS were outPosts or small colonies, scout vessels and warships. At that time, the Federation and Klingons could have thought the holo tech great, but just did't have the skill, tech level, money or desire to fit it onto all their warships, colonies and stations. Remember, the first holodeck seen was on the Enterprise-D, which was a BIG exploration vessel, with lots of families on board. On that kind of ship, the holodecks would be very usefull for stress relief and crew and passenger morale, but on a warship of TOS time, it would just take up space better used for provisions or weapons.

This is it. That moment they told us about in high school, where one day, algebra would save our lives.

Lets go back to the the first show.
My thoughts on the unknown character.

1. Evil kirk from alt universe.
2. the real kirk who is pissed because they killed him off.
3. The romulan tasha yara, who wants to distroy the fed before it gets started.
4. data's evil brother.

mav,

I never said they traded the cloak tech. I ask what you thought happened to the holo tech that was given to the klingon captain?
I was just fishing for thoughts on this.
