This is driving me crazy so many times! When they put the Doctor into his mobile emitter and he goes on a dangerous away mission, why do they not keep a copy of him in the ship's computer/holodeck/sick bay? His copy might get new memories, yes, but they could either get merged (like we synchronize or files) or deleted if they cause trouble (like in "Latent Image")

Especially the episodes where they send him to the Alpha quadrant and are unsure if/when they get him back. What I ended up losing it over was "Virtuoso", where he decided to leave the ship and live as an opera diva. Why did they not simply make a copy, put it in the holo emitter and send him to the planet while keeping an intact Doctor on Voyager?

He annoyed me at first, but has become one of my favorite characters in all of Star Trek. The actor that plays him has way more range than I expected!

His "dark" episode was amazing, and the depth of that performance really endeared him to me. I'm watching the "Tuvac special" episode right now, where Neelix is his caretaker, and he's just so positive and supportive.

Also, Doctor as close second - love him, too!

Janeway and Chakotay both still probably my least favorite in this series. Maybe this is a hot take? Janeway seems...ideologically inconsistent? Chakotay is just kind of boring. I haven't finished the series, though, so I'm still open to letting them grow on me.

I'm not finished yet, so no spoilers in comments, please 🫣

Hello, so I had an interesting thought and wanted to know if it would be possible to do. So let's say somehow Voyager is destroyed, but the crew can escape using the pods, and they end up landing on a planet with a civilization that has a similar level of technology to the Federation and Voyager. Using their own knowledge along with the help of the people who's planet they landed on, would they be able to recreate Voyager? I know Paris and Kim built the Delta Flyer, but that's different from building a Starship. And unless the doctor escaped with his mobile emitter, he mostly likely wouldn't be able to be recreated since it took even the best minds at Starfleet a long time to develop him. But as long as the people they meet have the technology to build large starships, I don't see why they couldn't build something that resembled Voyager in all the places that mattered.

So do you think they would know enough to be able to rebuild the ship in this situation? Like, would they be able to recreate the bioneural circuitry or stuff like that

In 'dark frontier' the Borg queen breaks away from the hive to go to an assimilation. She thinks it will be good for Seven.

I realized she never goes back to the hive. I even rewound it to be sure. She lets a few ppl go that Seven tried to save but she never returns to the hive. Did I miss it or something?
