      Still a popular option 75 years later.

      I know, it’s facing away, but it’s still a dumb location for testing.

        Production Crew: Hey, we only have one engineering set. You’re just going to have to deal with it.

        Fans: But you could at least close the blast door.

          And a great excuse to practice your tumbling.

          They have a firing range, though. Guinan kicks Worf’s ass on it.

            I thought that was the holodeck, but yeah, still would have been more sane and plausible lol

        Always loved this one … let’s test a laser like device to see what it will do … it might punch through whatever receptacle device we aim it at, I don’t know … but being a hyper intelligent android with logical thinking skills, I’ll go stand behind the receptacle in the path of the beam

        This is the equivalent of testing bullet proof vest material and your buddy shoots bullets and you decide to stand behind the vest being tested

        Our analysis says that it should work but we haven’t thoroughly tested it yet … but I trust the science

        At least it’s all on the far side of the garage door thingy that everyone has to roll under at the last second.
