It's a stupid argument. Star Wars had 2 fantastic movies, 1 pretty decent movie and then a truckload of crap. They're not really comparable unless you want to include expanded universe and I'm not touching that with a 10 foot pole.

Star Wars: Space Opera. Fantasy set in space a long time ago with magic powers. The Jedi are both emotionally and mathematically suspect. For instance if one is bringing balance to the force and there is 10,000 Jedi on one side and 2 on the other then balance would either be 10k on both or 2. If the Jedi were mathematically inclined they could have figured out that the chosen one would be doing either a lot of humping or pruning. Turns out Annie did a bit of both.
Star Trek: Space Science Fiction of our near future. Assumes that the Fermi Paradox exists because we are carefully shielded from external interference. It emphasizes exploration, science, relationships, learning and that smart behavior (not just logical) can adapt and overcome. That is important if you want to be a good dust player.
Star Trek is a possibility. Star Wars is just fun.
Many of they things seen in Star Trek have come to fruition. Star Wars loses hands down until my hands can hold a light saber.

I didn't think DS9 was crap. I thought the story arcs were a welcome change to otherwise stale monster of the week plotlines. Although it loses a lot of points for all the pah wraith fire cave nonsense. It should have ended with the end of the dominion war.
Setting it on a space station would probably turn a lot of people off but after having watched the entire series on netflix I realized that it actually was a really great show and might even be better than TNG mainly because I liked how the war brought out the dark side of Starfleet not seen otherwise.
It's not that I think you have to like it or you're an idiot I just think the show is vastly underrated among the series of Trek. Even Enterprise gets better when watched quickly and I place Voyager firmly at the bottom of the pile.

Star Wars has simplistic unoriginal plot.
Star Trek has a complete lack of style, its aesthetically lacking.
I also dislike standalone episodes, and prefer an overarching plot, so I guess Star Wars has the edge on that.
So the winner is...
Farscape for aesthetics
Battlestar Gallactica for story, acting, characters, etc.

Star Trek is more cerebral.

It has the best storyline, characters, art direction, and filmmaking.

The proper length is a thirty-nine and a half foot pole.

Star Wars. Asides from having a deeper story and greater expanded universe, Star Wars also has more realistic technology. Yeah light sabers are pretty illogical but they make A LOT more sense than phasers. Also Star Wars has a more realistic method of space travel.
Also no one asides exotic dancers and sexy Jedi wear skin tight clothes, that's the way it should be.

None of that is true. Both phasers and light sabers are equally nonsensical. And hyperspace is more realistic than warp drive? At least warp drive bears a resemblance (albeit an unintentional one and I'll admit merely passing) to an actual theoretical FTL propulsion system, backed up by math and whatnots.

Actually Phasers are just lasers. When they were first conceptualized for the show, we didn't actually know about lasers, but we did know about masers. Phaser stands for PHoton mASER, which is a laser.
Also, there are people currently working on functional warp drives inspired from Stak Trek. They are called Alcubierre Warp Drives.
Star Trek has much more realistic tech.

Hyper space makes more sense than warp drive because hyper space is the act of using a worm hole to travel through space, but warp drive is just going faster than light. Technically speaking, going through a worm hole is more likely, at least in modern science.

That isnt how warp drive works at all. That is a gross oversimplification.
Also, wormholes are just as theoretical as warp drives. The only difference is, we can possibly make warp drives, but to use a wormhole, you have to find it.

Yes warp drives are called warp drives because they "warp" time and space. You dont nescisarily "travel" fast but you manipulate space to cover greater distances in far less time.

Star Trek has a complete lack of style, its aesthetically lacking.
I also dislike standalone episodes, and prefer an overarching plot, so I guess Star Wars has the edge on that.
So the winner is...
Farscape for aesthetics
Battlestar Gallactica for story, acting, characters, etc.
Farscape. You win.

Who's getting huffy? I was just wondering because it just came out of nowhere talking about it.

how is manipulating space time different than using a worm hole? |

There are no wormholes in the tech of either series so what does it matter?

there was a scientist studying cultures of bacteria he observed they would begin to act strange roughly 8minutes before a solar flare. Some of the particles in the water were entangled with particles in hydrogen atoms in the sun. The eight minutes was how long the light took to reach earth. The bacteria were affected instantaneously because of entanglement, however nothing traveled faster than light. Why? The particles were once part of the sun and traveled here at C or less at some time in the past. Traveling faster than light cannot be achieved. |

Yes. So which series uses wormholes? The warp drive of star trek or the hyperspace of star wars? Both are actual FTL drives as in the ships reach superluminal velocity. Which is not how wormholes work (if they even actually exist).

I guess the devil is in the details. Using a worm hole is generally though of as using something that already existed and is compared to going through a tunnel.
Warp drive can be explained as folding space around the ship. The ship itself does not travel it manipulates space around it. |

Tachyons. Theoretical I know, I'm just pointing them out.
Accelerating to the speed of light is impossible.
But just so we're clear are you saying that both star wars and star trek use technology that is technically impossible as we currently understand the universe? Because you're right and I believe I said that already.
Or are you saying the Alcubierre drive and its variants are impossible? Because at least on paper they should work and you would be wrong.

People.
When stating something as a fact such as "You cannot travel faster than the speed to light" please state your evidence, all material along with a report as to why it is what it is. Also please include documentation from your college/university in which you studied and gained your degree and knowledge, thanks.

It's more or less the same thing. But it's irrelevant because wormholes are not part of the warp drive or the hyperdrive,

we could argue this, yet it would be speculation. One would have to know the margins of error, assumptions, and variables not considered.

You cannot accelerate to the speed of light:
e=mc^2
Relativistic speeds are no problem as 2 ships traveling at .75c away from each will have a relative velocity of 1.5c which isn't a problem. You require a Lorentz shift along a particular axis to determine absolute velocity. Using the x-axis e=mc^2 becomes:
e=1/((1-(v/c)^2)^1/2
where v=velocity and c=speed of light
if v=c (traveling at the speed of light) the you get:
e=1/(1-1^2)^1/2
e=1/(1-1)^1/2
e=1/0
So the energy required to accelerate to the speed of light approaches infinity as v approaches c.

They are completely different series, the only thing they have in common is the space travel. there both in space, they both use ships.
Star Trek is based in the milky way galaxy, they have never left the milky way galaxy in any of the series they produced.
Star Wars is based on an ancient galaxy very far away, NOT the milky way, heck nobody even knows the lor of where this galaxy is even located at, the only clue we have is "in a galaxy far far away" meaning its nowhere close to the milky way. The physics and species of star wars fits the entire thing because earth doesn't exist there, so there are more species involved, more advanced technology.. need I say more?

I can't say which is better but I love Star Trek for it's themes in storyline, especially the first series.
Also, no. My name is not based on Captain Kirk. My last name is actually Kirk and it's happens to be a coincidence Star Trek is my favorite show of all time. |
