TNG S1 EP 17: "Home Soil"

from Trek in the Valley · host Adam and Al

“It seems we are becoming detectives, Number One.” Terraforming! The act of turning a vacant rock devoid of even any chance of intelligent life is always the cornerstone of a society advancing across the stars.  But what if you screw up? What if there is some kind of life you didn't look for? Life made of plastic or something, maybe? Anyway, you will have screwed up big time and you probably got some people killed. Now you need to get a different job. Nobody in the terraforming world will give some killer of plastic aliens a second chance! Adam and Al cover all of these massive moral dilemmas when they discuss Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Home Soil".
