scene showed exactly how things will work in the future? Or have
you ever watched The Next Generation and wondered what the

script?

and Amy Nelson choose their top 3 picks for both realistic and
unrealistic elements in The Next Generation. Their choices
include technology, ideas, relationships, Federation policy, and
more.
