Or vacuum?

Seriously though, how the hell can you confirm the identity of a photon (especially if it has been teleported and thus lost it's space-time continuity)?

Ok, I know that it's not my turn (but vtmariks), but I have areal question (the one to wich I don't know the answer and I have been OBSESSED with it for years!

)

In the game "Heroes of Might&Magic II", Archibalds Campaign, Dragon King scenario, there is a Sphinx. It asks you a question "What is time spent poorly?"

Does anyone know the correct answer? (When I say know, I don't mean guess, since I don't have the game at the moment, so I can't check your guesses.)

The answer is: "A waste," "wasted," or "waste"

My question:
There were three captains of the original Enterprise (Kirk's, not Sam Beckett's), who was the very first one?

Captain Pike?

*Bows before the wisdom of vtmarik*

Wow. After being obsessed with that question for about 10 years, I now know the answer!

I haven't posted in this thread, but only because I haven't known the answers (which for some reason I am rather disappointed in myself) and this question is incredible to me! I have a feeling that it wasn't Kirk, only because that would be too obvious, but other captains? There were others? This would have to be in TOS, right? The first movie was a new Enterprise if memory serves correctly. So who else was captain in the original series?

I'll wait for the question to be answered and confirmed, but afterward if someone could kindly answer this with episode references I'd really appreciate it.

Not Pike, Not Kirk, and not Decker.

Check the Star Trek Compendium (if you have a copy) or Wikipedia.

He said Kirk's Enterprise, not Sam Beckett's. And I checked wikipedia and have the answer. Should've checked before asking.
