    Things were different back then. They didn’t discover reversing the polarity until the mid 24th century. Before that as long as you kept your dilithium crystallized and your deflector shields up everyone was happy.

    Then why did Spock say "Ready to reverse polarity, Mr. Sulu?" in the episode "Who Mourns for Adonais?"
