Star Trek Names the 3 Beloved Characters Who Invented Proto-Warp Speed

:0:0

Warning: contains spoilers for Star Trek #6!Star Trek has named the beloved characters who helped invent Prodigy's Proto-Star drive. In IDW Publishing’s Star Trek #6, Captain Sisko and the crew of the USS Theseus are attempting to stop the God City of the T’Kon from destroying Earth. Desperate to get there, and fast, the crew engage the Theseus' experimental warp drive unit. Designed by some of Star Trek’s best and brightest, the new unit is familiar to fans of Star Trek: Prodigy.
The issue is written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, drawn by Ramon Rosanas, colored by Lee Loughridge and lettered by Clayton Cowles. The crew of the Theseus is in dire straits: Sisko and an away team are stranded on the God City - and it is hurtling towards Earth at record speed. The Theseus cannot keep pace, and is rapidly approaching the transwarp barrier, which no conventional starship can achieve. Data, left in charge while Sisko is at the City, instructs Scotty to engage the ship’s "classified propulsion system." Scotty plays coy, but Data tells him he knows everything about the system, having examined the blueprints before coming on board. Scotty then admits that he and B'Elanna Torres had been working on the unit before the Theseus launched. Scotty explains to Data that there had been containment unit problems that make it unfeasible - problems that Data then solves. As the new unit comes online, Scotty coins a name for the new system: "Proto-Warp."
Star Trek's Best and Brightest Created the Proto-Warp Drive

The Proto-Warp drive links Star Trek’s God War to Prodigy, the ninth entry in the franchise, and the first Star Trek to be aimed at children. Star Trek: Prodigy follows the adventures of a group of young aliens who discover a derelict Starfleet vessel on a distant world. The ship, called the Protostar, is being sought by the Diviner for unknown reasons. It was revealed that the Protostar contained an experimental warp unit, the first of its kind. In addition to utilizing conventional warp propulsion methods, the Protostar uses an actual baby star to give the ship even more power, with speeds far exceeding standard vessels. And now, with the God War raging across the galaxy, readers learn which fan favorites helped build the Protostar.
