• The distress call from Mantilles is received two and a quarter days after the ship left the Guardian's planet.
• The three planets seen in the star chart – Alondra, Mantilles and Bezaride – are mentioned to be second, third and fourth in the Pallas XIV star system.
• Starfleet regulation E-11634 is posted on the access route to antimatter control. It specifies "absolutely authorized presonnel" only. A lift behind the door led to the "antimatter nacelle".

This was the first time the interior of the two warp drive nacelles was referenced on Star Trek.
