    Are you sure IDF's have been invented yet?

    Well, i think without an IDF his first flight would have been his last .

    But seriously has ever someone established when the IDF was invented?

    I guess it depends on the nature of the 'field.' Admittedly, I've tended to envision warp drive as a form of Alcubierre drive; I don't remember how the tech manuals explain it.

    Now that you say something your likely right. The IDF would not be invented just yet. I think that the Phoenix in First Contact eased into warp building speed up slowly before going warp speed.
