Where is the Cardassian?Edit

I have went through the "primary data core" section of this episode. I can't find the Cardassian. I saw the other species, including the Vaadwaur-ish looking guy next to Travis, but I could not for the life of me find the Cardassian. Could someone give me a time code on the DVD.

Replicator/Protoplaser? Edit

A replicator is not a kind of protoplaser. A protoplaser is a medical instrument used for treating injuries. Perhaps they meant "E.g., replicators and a kind of protoplaser"? --72.173.177.210 00:27, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Station Creators Edit

What about the Bynars? They have neurological-computer interfaces that appear similar to the one that Mayweather had installed on him. 67.180.193.93 04:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Not a chance. Dr. Phlox witnessed a Bynar implant installation, it would seem logical that he would recognize the technology. Also, the Bynar were never seen as malevolent. Pithecanthropus 05:23, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

• It also highly possible that the builders of the repair station became an ally of the Federation, or may have exchange techologies, because, many of the the technologies we see in the repair station, most especially the table "food replicator," are some of the technologies that we see in the 24th century that are taken for granted.

Pure speculation. - Archduk3 05:04, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Removed speculation Edit

• Speculation that the repair station is somehow a precursor to the Borg is incorrect due to the timeframe of the Borg established in other Star Trek episodes (see The Origin of the Borg for details). Nonetheless, the similarity between the two (replicating automata that abduct members of sentient species to form a collective) is notable.
• In the video game Star Trek: Legacy, there is a fairly involved history of the Borg that includes V'Ger and the repair station from "Dead Stop". This could be considered a non-canon Borg explanation.
• It is also possible that the builders of the station are the same race which constructed the Tan Ru space probe:
  • If the station builders also made Tan Ru, it would explain why that probe was able to so easily meld itself with Nomad; like the repair station, it would have an ability to interface with any alien technology it encountered.
