I personally always thought of Daniels and the temporal agents as 31st century Section 31, since both organizations claim to be not "officially" part of Starfleet but are still obviously heavily biased in favour of the UFP.

[@casbot71]

Braxton's timeship the Aeon crashed in the sixties and kickstarted a major tech revolution on earth, which means that the Federation has always been an altered timeline, a closed loop as well. And that's why it's different to ours, with events described in TOS not happening in our world by the calender date. Janeway confirmed as much, Starling and Kronoworks completely changed earth history. So without the Federation starship Voyager causing the Federation timeship Aeon to crash in 1967, when it attempted to destroy Voyager because Voyager will be sucked into its temporal wake and carried to the 29th century, and be caught in the explosion of the Aeon. And the wreckage of Voyager wil be discovered in the aftermath of the solar system destroying calamity, prompting the Aeon to be sent to remove Voyager from time in the first place, causing the Aeon to crash in 1967, which will give earth's technology a boost, leading to the Federation and the creation of both ships and the circumstances that lead them back to the 20th century.

[@TheSefirosu200x]

I always thought that Braxton's timeship crash caused the timeline to align more with our real life world, hence why we get a 1990s equivalent to real life, rather than a world where stuff like the Eugenics Wars happened (which I thought was the main, big difference in this new "IRL timeline", the Eugenics Wars DIDN'T happen) unlike the "normal" Trek timeline.

[@scottmantooth8785]

one of the many, many inanely complex problems with altering events in the past or deflecting the course in which they might have originally took is that you can never be sure if the given event was a fixed point along the space time continuum...tiny changes could lead to enormous fluctuations that would only be exponentially amplified the further into the future they traveled and that being more or less infinitely unless the future was somehow alerted to the threat and a temporal negation stasis protocol was activated rendering the threat nullified and the long process of repairing the damage could take place before the event even happened...

Unless that’s how voyager was meant to get home.... a causality loop. A C B That sort of loop

[@Ozzy_2014]

Actually this is dealt with in the novels and makes sense once you've read the destiny series. If the Voyager isn't home with the advanced technology the Borg will assimilate the galaxy. As seen with Armada they sent to wipe out the beta & alpha quadrants. Not assimilation but out & out extermination. There's a graphic novel of a 29th centuty ruled by the Borg sith Seven of Nine and Locutus in control of the collective and vice versa. The nightmare they seek to prevent. Temporal shields developed before the 26th century invention of time travel in massive secret exercise that used no records of any sort to hide their efforts from upstream interference. Hence why they worked in the past before the TNG era.

[@kasmopaya2676]

Exactly, that's also my theory, Voyager was meant to be home after 7 years. But i think the advanced technology was destroyed immediately after arrival, otherwise it would have been trouble and against some rules. (shown in Nemesis, Janeway home and no trace of the new technology on the flagship.) That's a shame, i really want to see the new armor tech on the new show with Sir Patrick Stewart on all federation ships.

[@Marcus51090]

Kasmo paya well they did utilise transphasic torpedos but because sterfleet where worried the Borg could assimilate ships with the torpedos only very few ships carried them only a handful of people in all the galaxy knew how they worked they where highly classified, and a ship would only have about 4 torpedos with insutctions to destroy them if the Borg where about to assimilate the ship after all they where the perfect Borg buster weapon The armour was assimilated by the Borg so was useless against them..... essentially what it was was massive replicator emitters on the hull that constantly re replicated new armour over the damaged section repairing it.... and that’s why it depleted because the ship literally didn’t have anymore power..... the Borg could get through shields by adapting but they couldn’t get through a physical wall per say. When the Borg tried to adapt to it they essentially used brute force of all three cubes attacking one section

[@kasmopaya2676]

Nice description. This way it would also make sense how i picture future battles with this armor. First the shields have to be depleted before it is allowed from the federation to deploy the armor of any ship, because it uses so much energy/resources (not unlimited to the federation). Against the Scimitar the Enterprise would have had an advantage with the armor. The transphasic torpedos would have been devastating. Only 1 torpedo and the Scimitar would be gone. I expect them to never return to star trek because they are just too strong. The "utilise transphasic torpedos" you talk about is non canon stuff, like Star Trek online?

[@davidgipe997]

Trans-phasic torpedoes were designed to be used against the Borg, would they have an appreciative affect on non-borg ships? It may not be "power" in itself that makes it so effective against the Borg and like ships.

So if 31st Century Starfleet/ST Universe timeline agencies exist, that means that all ST canon material is all set in the "past". You can't travel to the future if it didn't exist.

It's a splintered timeline that exists in parallel to the main one. There was a lead-in comic that explained it. It's a similar thing to the mirror universe.

[@Rasolisu]

The Temporal Accords of 2769 as seen in STO is 'The current timeline is canon don't mess with it and fix any changes' any old incursions and changes before hand like Janeway's in VOY and Nog's in STO are still canon in the Temporal Accords thus need to be left to happen.

[@RichtorLazlo]

So question about time protecting and starfleet❓why was there not a temporal center/base at the guardian of forever, there all time changes could be protected and detected, and would be a time protected base from which to work from. Sometime after 2267 starfleet could have made a base of operations there. So many of these time changes that caused major damage such as the Gabriel bell incident, or captain archer being taken to the future and the future being destroyed because of it, a team based at the guardian of forever would had been in the best position to attempt to repair the timeline. Why is that never appeared to happen ❓

[@Dracotonis]

I always imagined Temporal Investigations as a group that existed across the past, present and future of the federation. Aside from the investigation of timeline or temporal changes in their present, their primary function would be as a point of contact for other Temporal Investigation groups in the past or future. If say someone had to travel back from the 29th century to the 24th and needed assistance from someone in that timeline(depending on the location of course), who better to contact than members of Temporal Investigations in that period who are already fully versed in time travel. Or say if they travelled back the first thing they would do is simply check in with Temporal Investigations explaining they have travelled back and for what purpose to spare that version of Temporal Investigations having to investigate.

[@scottmantooth8785]

according to the logic found in Douglas Adams books...time travel by its very nature would have to be discovered/developed simultaneously at every point in history past present and future in order to exist ...a bit tricky when you think about it

[@michaelrodriguez1676]

You can't properly police time travel without being immune to its effects.

[@Cliffdog01]

I think a temporal agent looking through time could make a judgement on whether someone went back in time. The most common being sudden tech changes like if your timeline all of a sudden had beam weapons even though the history would feel to you to be normal it might be possible to understand that a development is unlogical and so you'd go and investigate.

[@RichtorLazlo]

So what about the Guardian of forever❓I would think starfleet would put a research station there and what a great place for a temporal investigations base of operations,

[@TheSefirosu200x]

If Star Trek had just used the Many Worlds version of time travel from the very beginning, so that any travel into the past simply spawns an alternate timeline, then there would be no need for anything like the Department of Temporal Investigations. Plus, it just makes more sense and is probably how time travel would work IRL, if it's even possible, because it's a natural defense against Temporal Paradoxes.

I just had a thought (Oh, oh); You join the D.T.I., D.I.T. in its earliest beginnings, would they allow you to travel into the future or be limited to their present and the past?

The CIA is a massive threat. It does nothing that goes against the High Council, and Gallifrey itself. It is the Tal Shiar, Obsidian Order and Section 31 for time travel on steroids. They would automatically generate a third faction in the Battle Of Procyon V against the other two sides, and be a total threat to both of them, and would eliminate them in a black ops mission. If anything, the Doctor inspires those organisations, most definitely, but Daniels from the 26th Century deemed him a threat, to the point his organisation impounded his TARDIS. Entirely due to the fact the Time Lords and Daleks would turn Daniels entire timeline into a battle ground in their Time War, and there would be nothing he, or any temporal faction, even working together, could do to stop it. @@craigevans4694​

Comic books will reinvent their continuities. For example Captain America being frozen in ice since the end of WWII in spite of having had a continuous comic run of his post war adventures. Someone wanted to do a man out of time story so the continuity ran with it. History changed. Trek has a much darker problem. Writers deciding on their own to "fix" something about the franchise they don't like and replacing it with something even less well thought out, broken and stupid. That started back in The Original Series and has only gotten worse over time. The result is that the franchise is in disagreement over every aspect of itself from the smallest "does paper exist?" to the largest "what is the Prime Directive?" to the most mundane "What is the symbol for Starfleet?" or the who characters are "Is Picard a dune buggy fanatic who doesn't care about archaeology?

The most overpowered but the least liked part of the Federation (well 2nd least like to you know who) as someone who plays as a Temporal Agent, I can understand why. Most of the logs are just downright depressing. If a Romulan were to do this, it will be watching your homeland get blown... TWICE. Just to add insult to injury. Or rubbing salt in their wound If your crew has a past trauma related to the mission you're doing 70% will hate you for it and 30% will dislike

Why didn't the Temporal Federation intervene in the Kelvin incident?

[@RichardStrong86]

Didn't alter the prime timeline, just created a splinter one. That's my guess. It also wasn't the result of direct temporal manipulation, just an accident.

If I went back in time, I would bring a globe.

[@scottmantooth8785]

just remember in the past you would have no wi-fi, no gps and very poor phone reception...also getting even the slightest of cuts could result in your arm or leg falling off from gangrene...and it would be very awkward to discover that by your careless actions that you had become your own ancestor....eeewww!!!!
