Warp fields can be disrupted by inverse graviton bursts. In 2063, Geordi La Forge was able to modify the warp field of the USS Enterprise-E to match the exact chronometric readings of the Borg sphere they had pursued back in time and was able to recreate the temporal vortex that the sphere had created and return the Enterprise to the 24th century. Kira and Bashir were later able to return to their own universe by recreating the accident and going back through the wormhole. This had the effect of transporting the runabout, along with its two crewmembers, Major Kira Nerys and Doctor Julian Bashir, to a parallel universe. In 2370, a plasma injector leak aboard the runabout Rio Grande caused the vessel to enter the Bajoran wormhole with an only partially-collapsed warp field. The interactions between a warp field and a wormhole could be unpredictable, and ships routinely dropped to impulse when traveling through one. The warp field of a Federation starship like the USS Enterprise-D left behind an electromagnetic signature on Data's internal servo fluid system. The warp core needed to be converted before the field could be generated. USS Voyager used such a field in 2376 in an attempt to ride out a massive neutronic wavefront impacting its shields at a velocity of two hundred thousand kilometers per second. ( ENT: " Divergence")Ĭreating an inverse warp field was analogous to dropping the anchor for a starship.
( TNG: " Deja Q" DS9: " Emissary")ĭuring emergency situations where the transfer of crew or other objects is necessary while in warp, the warp fields of two vessels may be brought into contact with each other and merge to form one, provided both ships remain motionless relative to each other and at the same warp velocity. ( ENT: " Cold Front") This had the physical effect of reducing the inertial mass of any object encompassed by the field. The warp field, also known as a subspace field, was a subspace displacement which warps space around the vessel, allowing it to "ride" on a distortion and travel faster than the speed of light. Generated by field coils, usually found in nacelles, the field surrounded the ship, causing the space around the ship to distort by the creation of a warp bubble. The USS Enterprise of the alternate reality traveling at warp inside a warp fieldĪ warp field, also known as the subspace displacement field or the subspace warp field, was the means by which a warp drive propelled a starship at faster-than-light (or warp factor) speeds.
