That is precisely what I need them for! If I get you the supplies, how soon would you be able to make a set?

give me a couple days to throw about six together? less if i can get my brother to help. i guess you should know i'm working on a hyper-compost bin that should make things a little easier on us.

Oh that sounds marvelous! I would love to come by and take a look at it sometime, if you don't mind.

not at all. it's nowhere near done since i don't have access to all the parts i need yet, though. hoping the next system we have has a junk yard.

Great! I'll let you know when I have some free time to take a look. If we can get gardens on all the ships it will improve things immensely.

that's the plan. maybe we can even find alien plant life that has better healing properties than the stuff we know.

[Hiro if you could only see the grin on her face right now.]

I am sure we will. I know quite a bit about extraterrestrial botany already. I'm interested to see what this universe has to offer.

so you do a lot of intergalactic travel in your world?

[DO YOU HAVE STORIES]

Not so much intergalactic travel, no. The Milky Way is a big place, after all. We've barely even explored a quarter of it. Interstellar travel, though? Yes! I am the Chief Medical Officer aboard the Starship Enterprise, which is on a continuing mission of exploration.

dr. crusher, i think there's a lot we can learn from each other. what's your favorite planet you stopped at?

My, that's a difficult question to answer! One of them would definitely have to be Betazed. It is the homeworld of one of my closest friends, Deanna Troi. The Betazoids are a telepathic race and their planet is really quite stunning: very lush and colorful, full of lakes - far more than there are on Earth - and waterfalls. And since we were talking about plants, there is a species of plant there called Muktok. They live to be hundreds of years old and their flowers chime like little bells in the wind.

There's also Vilmor II, which, admittedly does not seem very interesting on the surface, as it's been mostly dead for billions of years, but we discovered that it was the common genetic source for all humanoid species in the galaxy.

And of course, I'm always going to have a little bit of a soft spot for the planet where I grew up, Caldos III.

I hope that answers your question well enough!

y'know i have to say, you are definitely getting me even more pumped for being in the fleet for a while.

Well, that's good. I'm glad you're holding up well in strange circumstances.

it might be a little weird, but it's also pretty awesome. i'm working on a spaceship. how many 14-year-olds get to say that???

You sound like my son! He was made an honorary ensign on the Enterprise when he was about your age.

then your son was living the dream as far as my world goes.

It isn't without its dangers... he got himself - and me! - into plenty of trouble. But I think the experience was good for him, as I'm sure it will be for you.

well my brother will be the one getting in trouble with me. i'm sure he's gonna love everything i get into.

Your brother is here with you?

[Yes, somehow Beverly missed out on all of that. She doesn't watch the Network too often.]

yeah, he's our medic. tadashi hamada.

Oh, wonderful! It's good for the fleet to have more medics on hand. I'll be sure to contact him at some point.

Also, if you are interested, I will probably be using the Virtual Reality Dome to recreate my ship at some point, if you would like to take a look at it. It won't be the same as being on the real Enterprise of course, but I'd be happy to give you a tour!

I'll have it programmed soon. I'll let you know when it's ready.

thanks, dr. crusher. i can't wait!!!
