If we’re counting objects that weren’t necessarily intended as super weapons, then we could probably include V’Ger’s ship and the whale probe, both of which would have wiped out life on Earth.

[@blackc1479]

Agreed, I figured they'd be on the list for sure. Intent counts, but results count more.

[@demariushenderson1802]

There seems to be a lot of Star Trek ‘super weapons’ missing from this list starting with the Genesis Device. It destroyed an entire Nebula and reformed it into a planet. Then the Echo Papa drone system from TNG (that almost destroyed the Enterprise D). The Tox Uthat (again from TNG) that could destroy a star. The Son’a subspace weapons from Insurrection that caused the Enterprise E to lose a warp core. Dr Soran’s trilithium weapon that blew up 2 stars. And Q weapons from Voyager, that could kill or injure other Q, and had the side effect of causing supernova’s!!

[@Shakeshift]

There's a crazy amount of missing entries here.

[@demariushenderson1802]

[@sh4d0wfl4re]

Yup, it also made a Star. All in hours, so it was massively FTL so much so that the Enterprise shouldn't have been able to escape even if it were 2000 times faster. Kirk was very lucky that he was blasted away prior to the device devouring the whole nebula

[@Thurgosh_OG]

TNG also had the Warp Wave generator, intended to replace Warp Drives, which could have destroyed planets.

[@lorzon]

Speaking of the Doomsday Machine, in this one case, I prefer the old version from '66. The model was thinner and more spindly and worn looking and when combined with the filming methods of the time appeared to have thin spots and tiny holes in its hull. Which suggested that it was so ancient that even its otherwise impervious exterior was beginning to wear away.

[@RichtorLazlo]

Echo papa 607, from the episode “ Arsenal of freedom” fit the definition of a super weapon, it tests an opponent and automatically improved its capabilities until it destroyed what ever it was fighting, only really beaten by Picard when he agrees to purchase the weapon, I also believe that jjverse should still have to deal with the doomsdays machine, as the doomsday would had started it’s voyages before the point of the time change with the destruction of the Kelvin , the doomsday machine should still be out there somewhere coming, as is veger and the whale probe.

[@jeffjr84]

The phaser spinal lance is also a super weapon.

[@DoremiFasolatido1979]

It's a powerful weapon...but the list he was going for here were weapons that could kill whole planets. It's not quite THAT powerful.

[@HistoryVideoGamesMiscStuff]

Since there are already mentions of the Genesis Device, let's throw in the various star killing weapons. In By Inferno's Light, the Dominion had a device that could cause a star to go nova, as did Soran's trilithium weapon. And there's the Varuvian bomb, which can blow a large chunk out of a planet while being small enough to fit on a cart.

[@williammitchell4417]

Uninhabitable vs just plain make it have an Earth Shattering KABOOM!! That's two different things

[@mrnobody.4069]

@@williammitchell4417 if you really wanted to destroy a planet you could just send more photon torpedoes which one is more powerful than most of our nuclear bombs anyways or you could pull a TNG and do some tractor beam magic to almost make a planet's core explode but wouldn't it just be easier if you could just make it where nobody could just live on the planet anyways it's like asking humans to live inside saturn we can't do it! It's even said that a constitution class could destroy a continent on their constant bombardment from the wiki anyways which is quite believable knowing how powerful the standard for weapons is in Star Trek!! Star Trek ships are also constructed out of super materials and so was commander Data but whatever but because of this Star Trek ships are also super sturdy and we do see in TOS our Constitution class can be struck with many nuclear warheads and fly out of it mostly unscathed and that's just to give you an idea for the power of a photon torpedo! This is also why I find those scenarios with people put star destroyers up against Star Trek ships in made up scenarios unbelievable because I cannot see any way how a Star destroyer could even put a dent in the Enterprise that in many other reason!

[@MrAranton]

@@williammitchell4417 blowing up entire planets is wasteful overkill, not something the Federation would engage in. Besides: in a TNG episode the Enterprise‘s phasers are use to break up the tectonic plates of a planet that was in the process of quaking itself into much smaller pieces, thus relieving the seismic stresses and ending the quakes. A less benevolent power would surely find ways to use phasers that can penetrate a planet‘s crust to much more devastating effect. In a TOS episode Kirk has Spock use the ship‘s phasers to stun an entire city full of people, leaving the infrastructure intact. The stun setting works by overloading the target‘s nervous which doesn‘t require a lot of power. A slight modification of that stun setting could be used to wipe out a planet‘s population while preserving the infrastructure. The power to destroy a planet is insignificant next to versatility of a Federation starship‘s phasers…

[@indetigersscifireview4360]

And here I thought you were going to talk about Federation weapons. After all it's said in Star Trek that the Enterprise could decimate a planet all on its own in A Taste of Armageddon and elsewhere.

[@maybetoby]

I think Steve Berg was a fan of Babylon 5. The Krenim weapon ship reminded me of the B5 station, and 8472 bioships remind me of Vorlon ships.

[@angelsandautobots]

I'd like to make an argument for TNG s3 e3, where the entity Kevin defended his home with a Husnock battle cruiser. Being materialized by Kevin himself he could make the ship as powerful as he so desired. I dunno if that would count as a doomsday weapon, but it was definitely intimidating to see.

[@xen1313]

You missed a powerful one, The Crystalline Entity. Lore controlled/assisted it for his own plans. Making the Entity a biological superweapon.

[@jamiebraswell5520]

The Crystaline Entity was a force of nature, NOT a weapon. Lore simply learned how to comminicate with it and helped find food for it. You are trying too hard to come up with a unique answer.

[@DavidEvans_dle]

No mention of "Project Genesis", the whole movie was Kirk fighting Klingon to retrieve this weapon. Also, I would include the "Guardian of Forever" - just for the temptation comment it made to Kirk at the end of the episode. BTW- love Kirk's reply. :)

[@zomfragger]

I would not include The guardian of forever as it is sentient and can block access to anyone wishing to permanently damage the time line. We see this in discovery as it tested Georgiou before it sent her back to the 23rd century. This is also the reason why the Terrans could not use the guardian of their universe to undo the collapse of the empire thanks to Emporer Spock.

[@Exaris79]

You forgot the Isolythic weapon in a TOS episode that was banned as a planet killer. In Voyager, the original bomb that was to wipe out the Omega particles is supposed to be powerful enough to destroy a planet. There's also the Multi-Kinetic Neutronic Mine that 7of9 wanted to build to be used against the Undine. In TNG there's the Tox Uthot, Trilithium Torpedo and Genesis Torpedo. DS9 had a protomatter bomb that the Bashir Changeling made to blow up the Bajoran sun. Finally the actual Omega particle too.

[@Chicken-x6q6d]

I remember recording Doomsday Machine on VHS when I was a kid and watching it over and over again, definitely one of the best episodes ever made! One definite superweapon many overlook in these lists was that energy dampening field used by the Breen towards the end of the Dominion war, how many ships were lost in that battle where it was first activated?

What about the whale probe ship thing? Not really a super weapon but fits in the same group as 10 C's mining tech. And also that mother ship for the race of dinosaurs that Voyager ran into could count though we're never told how powerful it actually is. And finally V'ger could be included too given how powerful it was despite not being a "weapon".

[@jamiebraswell5520]

Correct, it is NOT a superweapon. Something being powerful and even a huge threat does NOT make it a superweapon. A superweapon is a device created for the intent purpose of killing many people. The Whale Probe was simply sent to see where the whales went, with Spock even explaining to you that it is unaware that its signals are destructive. V'Ger was not a superweapon either, as some here want to think, as it was simply the Living Machine's being nice and upgrading the Voyager probe so that it really could live up to its programming to learn all that is learnable. It was just collecting data as it searched for its creator and eventually achieved consciousness. It was not created for the express purpose of killing people.

You missed the Omega molecule and tri-lithium torpedo. Omega molecule can destroy faster than light travel for three light years per molecule. Which is why starfleet has the Omega Directive. Tri-lithium makes a star go boom, destroying entire star systems with one torpedo. Surprised there isn't a Directive for that one.

[@JamesCovington-WX5JJC]

The "Genesis Device" from Star Trek II used as a weapon would wipe all existing life off a planet. Then there's the "trilithium torpedo" from Star Trek: Generations that could cause the destruction of a star and entire solar system. Some might say the Borg themselves are a superweapon, as they assimilate entire worlds with relative ease. Let's also not forget the "crystalline entity", which consumed all life on a planet.

[@TheOtherSteel]

The First Federation flagship, Fesarius. We didn't get to see it attack, but it's scale was far larger than a Borg cube. Tin Man/Gomtuu. We saw it launch one attack, with which it destroyed a warbird and knocked out the Enterprise at much greater range. Each Q. They can alter timelines and reality at will. Cause a supernova? Snaps fingers: The big bang worked out differently and your galaxy never existed. That's not even counting the weapons they designed to use against each other. Genesis, V'ger, the alien ship in ST-IV, Omega, the aliens in the Nth Power who could impart super intelligence and technology to Barclay, the Andromedans in ToS, Sargon in ToS. Apollo in ToS, the alien who destroyed all the Husnock with a thought. The list goes on.

[@jamiebraswell5520]

Stupid list made by someone who doesn't know what a superweapon is. Just because something is enormous, powerful, or inadvertantly causing harm does NOT make it a superweapon. You do realize that weaoons are created for the express purpose of killing, don't you? If it is a superweapon, then it was created to kill a great many people on a massive scale. How does V'ger, the Whale Probe, Gomtuu, the Q, etc even qualify for that?? They are not even weapons. Their powers have nothing to do with being weapons. Stop being silly and show us that you understand Star Trek instead.

[@wrathshorts2894]

Echo papa 607 Was probably one of the most dangerous weapons in Star Trek. It wiped out it's creators and nearly destroyed the Enterprise D. It continuously adapts to it's target, like the Borg, but even more efficient. Picard only "stopped" it by agreeing to buy the weapon for the automated merchant. Revealing that this thing did all this in DEMO MODE. Imagine if it was deployed offensively.

There's the Jem'Hadar battleship, absolutely massive in size and heavily armed, even galaxy class were no match against it, let alone the tiny Defiant class. Then there's the illusionary Husnock ship generated by Kevin Uxbridge, it could absorb all forms of directed energy and had weapons with increasing higher output. Plus, being a projection created by an immortal being, it's essentially invincible. 5:27 The ending here is ambiguous, but it's implied that history was about to repeat itself.

[@Doublebarreledsimian]

Star Trek lore is filled with super weapons. Photon Torpedoes are more than capable of destroying planets, depending on the yield, and payload. Harry Kim even vocalizes this when they're modifying a torpedo in the Omega Directive episode of Voyager, and as much as I hate Discovery, there's a fantastic scene where the Empress destroys a rebel planet with nothing more than Photon Torpedoes, decimating the surface. There have been several missiles and bombs that can cause a star to go supernova (Generations TNG film, DS9 season 5x15 By Inferno's Light). Then there's the genesis device, the manheim effect experiments (TNG: We'll always have Paris), subspace weapons (Insurrection), and AI enhanced torpedoes (Voyager had at least 2 episodes dealing with these one was Cardassian designed and the other of an alien origin).

[@JarodCain]

Honestly as the series have continued, the continual defanging of phasers in general is something that has always disappointed me. In the original series and to a lesser extent Next Generation, phasers both handheld and ship based were weapons to tremendous power. Forcing the protagonists to find and chose a different solution to their problems as opposed to just shooting their way out. But since people seem to crave the mindless lightshow and action of constant firefights, they're now no more powerful than a Star Wars blaster.

[@Doublebarreledsimian]

​@@JarodCain Yeah it's annoying.Hand phasers will atomize rock or steel, almost anything you can use for cover in the original series. Then they got far less powerful in TNG DS9 and Voy, but with more versatile settings, like wide beam and multi beams, yet they're barely used because, well just because.

[@jbakervt]

Many comments mention you left out The Genesis Device, although it wasn't intended as a weapon (Although the technology is used to develop a weapon in "The Genesis Wave" series). There is also no mention of the Metreon Cascade, which WAS intentionally a weapon of mass destruction. The Cardassian Dreadnought missile also comes to mind. Of course, orbital bombardment with a couple dozen Quantum Torpedoes would be quite destructive, so maybe starships themselves are "superweapons"?

Yeah, the whole idea that nobody ever aged on the Krenim time ship never made sense to me. They would still experience time going forward for themselves from one minute to the next, and from one day to the next.

[@stratometal]

The neutronium hull of the Doomsday Machine reminds me of the concept of compressed matter armor. It would read as something similar to neutronium, or the matter at the heart of neutron stars. Starfleet sensors would have trouble differentiating between both I would think, since it would be a technology unfamiliar to them. Speaking of the Planet Killer, I got a crazy idea. Link the Krenin Timeship to the Doomsday Machine. I got two ways it could be done. One is to have the Krenim encounter one of the machines or find scans someone else took of it, and attempt to replicate its primary weapon. Along their reverse engineering they stumble upon creating the temporal core and weapon. Its a stretch I know, but it could be they simply got inspired by tales of the thing. The second idea is that the doomsday machine is the ghost of the Timeship, as it was being destroyed it attempted to escape and it got sent to beginning of time! Because of the damage, its hull has been twisted and altered by the ravages of both the destruction caused by Voyager and the energies it encountered at the start of the universe. The "neutronium" hull could be a modification it made along the way. As for its pilot it would be the remnants of the ship's AI, operating on pseudo instincts.

In my opinion, there's still a reference to the original doomsday machine design in the finished episode. Look at the damage sustained by the Constellation.

Soran's solar probes. They were a whole step up from a planet killer, they killed entire solar systems! But the Krenim Timeship is by far the most powerful in Trek and definitely in the upper echelon of fictional superweapons.

I've been watching a lot of your videos and somehow I wasn't subscribed. Fixed now. On to other things. The other night I was drinking and imagined what a Sovereign class with 5 semipermanent docks placed around it for larger-than-shuttle crafts, dock three Akiri's and two Defiants on that bad boy and send that bad mama-jamma out "to do two things: kick ass and explore..." Space-ship-needy "god" help any species that deviates them from their trek... No video suggestion. Just wanted to share a funny Trek thought. I hope you're having a great day ❤
