If it’s gonna take 75 years to get home you might as well violate the prime directive a little. You’ll be dead by the time they punish you anyway.

It's about 120 on average. From cannon.

Honestly I liked the vibe of Voyager. They basically went on idiotic side quests because it seemed like it would be cool.

I feel like a ton of episodes opened with one character pointing out this wasn't their business and didn't help them in any way, another character just going "...but we're explorers", and then Voyager getting into some weird shit.

A huge part of why I love Star Trek is because the galaxy seems vast and mysterious, with the Federation only truly understanding a small part of it. Voyager was the king of that shit. There are a ton of Voyager episodes that give us a glimpse into characters and concepts that could be their own series. It really made them feel like drops in a vast ocean.

Like the time Paris and Janeway devolved into lizards and had freaky lizard sex.

"The Prime Guideline", yeah, that sounds impressive

That sounds like a euphamism for Riker proposotioning someone for sex

If voyager went sublight they could time dilate themselves into the future. Idk why I just realized this.

Eh jk I guess they're too far away anyway. Any Earth they would recognize is gone.

If only they could fly on mushrooms with tardigrade DNA. I wonder how pissed Janeway would be upon learning about spore drive technology.
