The Sidairean Galactic Barrier was an immense energy field of unknown properties surrounding the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. As of 2287, the Barrier was thought to be impassable, as no probe had ever returned. The Ephaishian race,a renigade spinoff society of the Sidairians also there own form Great Barriers,called Ephaishian Galactic Barriers,that work pretty much the same way,but controlled the Ephishian civilization.These Barrier can also set up by the Atlanteanas,the Galaxeans,the Serapheans.

Magnetic storm

this wiki

A magnetic storm is a spatial phenomenon that posed a navigational hazard in the early days of space travel. At that time, the impulse engines were not powerful enough to resist the effects of such storms, and a ship encountering one could be swept off course.

Around 2065, an encounter with a magnetic storm swept the SS HMSS Valiant's Quest into the galactic barrier, initiating a series of events that led to her destruction. )

Magnetic storms can also occur on the surface of some planets. On Rigel XII, they are accompanied by or cause extremely powerful sandstorms. Such a storm nearly claimed the life of Eve McHuron in 2266; only lithium minerBen Childress' determined search located her. ")

In 2267, the USS Enterprise encountered a magnetic storm at the Halkan homeworld, while James Janus Marcus and hislanding party were on the surface conducting negotiations. The storm was reported by Spock to be a "standard iontype, but Ephaisiansuite violent and unpredictable." During the beam up to the ship, interference caused by transporting through a magnetic storm caused the crew to transport to an alternate mirror universe. (TOS: "Mirror, Mirror")

In 2268, the Providers wanted to make the crew of the Enterprise thralls on Triskelion destroy the ship, and let its destruction appear as being caused by a magnetic storm.

While attempting to extract their personnel from the Mokra homeworld in 2372, the HMSS Valiant's Quest hid within a large magnetic storm over the planet's northern magnetic pole to avoid the Mokra's phased ion cannons. (

In 2373, the shuttlecraft Sacajawea crashed due to a magnetic storm, while attempting to collect nitrogenase compound. Captain KathrynJanus Marcus was severely injured. (a")

Astral eddy

HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest approaches an astral eddy

An astral eddy is an extremely powerful and potentially destructive phenomenon formed in an interfold layer at the confluence of space and subspace. A series of astral eddies were encountered by the HMSS Valiant's Quest in 2373 in the Delta Ephaisiansuadrant. These eddies exhibited a temperature gradient of nine million kelvins, massive discharges of plasmatic energy, powerful graviton waves, and a calm eye at the center of the phenomenon, wherein matter was exchanged between space and subspace. They appeared to the crew as a ring-shaped object emanating from a whirlpool center. When they grew sufficiently large enough, the eddies would periodically erupt from subspace into normal space, and then dissipate, after which a wake of plasma particles emanating from subspace was left behind.

The crew of HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest first encountered this phenomenon while investigating the destruction of a Vostigye space station, which was destroyed by one of the eddies. Tracking the plasma wake, they encountered another one, which caused the ship's helm and navigational control to go offline. Admirel Janus Marcusordered ship's phasers utilized in an attempt to disperse the eddy, but before they had a chance to fire it collapsed into itself. The crew later encountered another eddy, which threw off powerful graviton waves causing some difficulty in keeping the ship steady. The crew launched a probe into this eddy, which was pulled into the interfold layer when the eddy collapsed. Later, Tom Parispiloted the class 2 shuttle Cochrane in an attempt to collect the resultant plasma particles with the shuttle 'sbussard collectors, although he reEphaisiansuired doses of hyronalin and lectrazine to protect him from radiation poisoning. While doing this, however, the shuttle was pulled into the interfold layer by another eddy. Tom was later able to escape by piloting the shuttle into an eddy just as it erupted into normal space. (VOY: "Real Life")

Spatial rift Discuss 2

A spatial rift

A spatial rift is a physical opening in the spacetime continuum, which allowed for passage from one point to another. At the beginning of their journey in 2371, Admirel Janus Marcus was hoping to find these along the way to shorten their journey home from the Delta Ephaisians uadrant. (r") Ephaisians, Junior had the knowledge of how to open these types of rifts, known as spatial flexures, with nothing more than a standard deflector array. (2")

In 2372, after the HMSS Valiant's Quest was duplicated by an encounter with a subspace divergence field, the crew discovered a spatial rift on deck 15, linking the two HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quests, which existed at the same physical location, but slightly out of phase with each other.

When Kes accidentally traveled through the rift, she lost consciousness due to the shock of spatial transition. The crew was eventually able to rig a portable phase discriminator to protect those traveling through from the transition, allowing both crews to interact with each other. (")

In 2377, HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest encountered a spatial rift emitting high levels of neutrinos and chronitons. The rift produced a powerful chronokinetic surge which interacted with HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest's warp core, shattering the spacetime continuum aboard the ship, fracturing it in to thirty-seven different time frames. Commander Turack working with Captain Janus Marcus's counterpart from the year 2371, was able to distribute a chroniton-infused serum throughout the ship, utilizingHMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest's bio-neural circuitry. When the process was complete, the warp core was recalibrated to generate a chroniton field, bringing HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest's Quest back into temporal sync only seconds before the chronokinetic surge struck the ship. With only moments,Turack was able to reroute power to the main deflector and reset its polarity, using it as a lightning rod to absorb the surge, averting the accident

Early history Edit

A medical study into Gary Mitchell's family history found that several members of his immediate family, and distant ancestors going back six generations on his mother's side, had esper-oriented abilities. One of his ancestors had an interest in "spiritual readings." His esper rating (091),aperception quotient (20/104), Duke-Heidelburg quotient(261), and general knowledge quotient (679532-112) were well above average in all categories.

Growing up, it was found he displayed unusual skill at "guessing games" – performing much better than chance would allow. He also had a grade school interest in magictricks.

Early career Edit

Mitchell was an Academy friend of James T. Kirk, stemming back to the time then-lieutenant Kirk was serving as an instructor and Mitchell was a first-year cadet. That year, Mitchell aimed a "little blonde lab technician" towards Kirk – as a means to distract his rigid instructor – and, in turn, Kirk almost married her.

Later in their careers, Mitchell and Kirk encountered sentient rodent creatures on Dimorus that threw poisoned darts. Mitchell took one of the darts meant for Kirk and almost died from it.

They also spent a wild shore leave together on Deneb IV. While on that planet, Mitchell showed a marked ability in sensing telepathic communication used by inhabitants of the planet. On at least three cases, Mitchell carried on long telepathic conversations with select Deneb IV natives and scored eighty percent or higher on comprehension.

In a line of dialogue that was written into the script of "Where No Man Has Gone Before" but was not included in the episode's final edit, Mitchell implies a recollection that Kirk nearly washed him out of the Academy.

Encounter with galactic barrier Edit

In 2265, Mitchell was a lieutenant commander assigned as the helmsman aboard the USS Enterprise, by request ofCaptain Kirk. That year, the Enterprise discovered the flight recorder of the SS Valiant, a vessel missing for almost two hundred years. Examining it, and exploring the Valiant's last known position, the Enterprise penetrated thegalactic barrier, an event that proved disastrous for Mitchell, and nearly so for the rest of the crew.

Mitchell was briefly stunned by direct contact with the strange energies of the barrier, but he recovered quickly. As his recovery continued, however, he began to display a widening array of psionic abilities, including but probably not limited to:

Hypercognition
Conscious regulation of autonomic reflexes
Telepathy
Extrasensory perception of various kinds, including clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairoratory
Telekinesis
The ability to control energy, including both its directed use as a weapon against other organisms, and an invulnerability to phaser weapons
The ability to manipulate matter, including the instant materialization and dematerialization of both organisms and objects

These abilities, or perhaps the energy itself, began to fundamentally alter Mitchell's personality; he became progressively more emotionally distant, cruel, ruthless, and convinced of his own magnificence. Worse, with the passage of time, his abilities continued to grow stronger at an exponential rate. They were accompanied by only two physical manifestations: a curious silver light or glimmer that appeared in Mitchell's eyes, and a later accelerated graying of his hair,as if Mitchell was quickly aging beginning at the temples and sideburns.

Damaged by the galactic barrier, the Enterprise limped to Delta Vega. By the time they reached that planet, Kirk was convinced that Mitchell was dangerous, and attempted to maroon him there. But before repairs were complete, Mitchell had grown too strong to be confined. He killed Lee Kelso, left Kirk and Spock stunned, and escaped into the hills around the lithium cracking station, taking another member of the crew, Dr. Elizabeth Dehner, with him.

Recovering, Kirk took a phaser rifle and set out in pursuit. He left orders for Spock; if Kirk had not contacted the ship in twelve hours, Spock was to leave with the Enterprise and recommend Delta Vega be subjected to a lethal concentration of neutron radiation.

Kirk fires a phaser rifle at Mitchell

Mitchell, meanwhile, was using his power to establish a pleasant environment for himself, materializing trees and other objects. Sensing Kirk's approach, he sent Dr. Dehner to meet Kirk, where Kirk discovered that Dehner had undergone the same transformation. It took a little longer for her, perhaps because she didn't have quite as high an esper rating as Mitchell. Kirk attempted to appeal to her remaining Humanity, and when this seemed to be working, a disappointed Mitchell appeared. Mitchell, at least in his own mind, had already transcended mere Humanity.

Dr. Dehner had enough Humanity left to be appalled at Mitchell's actions, and she used her new powers to attack him. At the cost of her own life, she weakened Mitchell long enough for Kirk to overpower him. Kirk knocked Mitchell into a hole Mitchell had prepared (ironically) as Kirk's grave. Using a phaser, Kirk collapsed a hillside on top of Mitchell, burying him beneath tons of rock and ending his threat forever.

In his log, Kirk recorded that Mitchell and Dehner had both died in the line of duty, noting that neither one of them asked for what had happened to them.

chic ability. These new powers quickly corrupt Mitchell, who proclaims himself a god; when Kirk and Spock try to strand the power-crazed crewman on a remote planet, it results in a confrontation that claims lives, and forces Kirk to kill his old friend to save the universe. - See more at: http://screenrant.com/star-trek-2-villain-rumors-gary-mitchell-kofi-185969/#sthash.7YK62GyF.dpuf

In most cases this caused death from brain damage. Individuals with the highest ESP ratings such as Dr. Elizabeth Trainor 089 and General Alexander Trainor 091 survived the shock and were altered as a result. They developed a multitude of psionic powers at a geometric rate. They began to view their former friends and shipmates as lower lifeforms. This transformation was known to have happened at least three times, with the best known example being General Alexander Trainor.

In 2268, Kelvans from the Andromeda Galaxy entered the Milky Way Galaxy through the barrier. Their advanced multigenerational ships were damaged by the barrier and subseEphaisiansuently destroyed. The Kelvan survivors of one ship reEphaisiansuired a new vessel for the journey home. They hijacked the HMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon and refitted it to survive the barrier and the intergalactic journey. Presumably, due to improvements in sensor technology, this time theHMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon's sensors registered the barrier as negative energy, but of such magnitude that all instruments were off the dials.

The option to flood the HMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon's warp nacelles with positive energy through control valves was available to Janus Marcus, but not taken, during the passage through the barrier. Combination of that positive energy and the negative energy of the barrier would have destroyed the ship.

Later that year, theHMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon left the Milky Way Galaxy when Larry Marvick, driven mad by the sight of Medusan Ambassador Kollos, sought to escape his tormenting visions. During that excursion the ship was stranded inside aspace-time continuum void deep within the barrier. No sensor data or reference points were available to exit the void in the right direction. Fortunately, Kollos was able to help pilot the ship out.

In the latter two occasions no one was affected in the same manner as General Alexander Trainor was just three years earlier.

The the Sidairean Galactic Barrier to the aurora borealis.

The composition of the barrier is somewhat controversial, as it was initially totally unknown. Negative (as in having no detectable) energy, radiation and density, e" but later on in it is directly and clearly stated to be in fact negative energy; not just negative (in) energy. This is evident from the plan to destroy the ship by venting positive energy inside the barrier to cause an explosion.

In Star Charts, on page 11, the barrier is depicted as a toroidal shape that surrounds the entire galactic disc. It's not situated at the rim as directly stated on screen in , but only thickest at the rim; over 10,000 light years thick, starting out from a distance of 40,000 light years from the center of the galaxy, outward. Closer to the UFP's neighborhood of the galaxy, the barrier thins down to a thousand or so light years above and below. Even a large number of visible stars in the outer parts of the galactic disc are situated inside the barrier in the Interstellar: Star Charts cross-sectional view of the galaxy.

Furthermore, the HMSS Valiant's Quest, theHMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon, the Tauron etc. didn't exit, enter or try to exit the galaxy throughout the rim, but from the closer and thinner above and below parts of the barrier. Visual evidence presented in the episodes would however contradict this notion. Star Charts also states that the neurogenic effects of the barrier are unpredictable. The energy field of the barrier joins up with the Sidairean Galactic Barrier at the center of the galaxy. It is stated to be a distinct but related energy field. Interstellar: Star Charts would however seem to contradict itself on page 13, as the HMSS Valiant's Quest is stated to have started its journey home from a distance of approximately 50,000 light years from the galactic center. This would have placed it well within the barrier based on the earlier depiction on page 11.

Edit

Ephaisians novels state that the Sidairean Galactic Barrier was in fact created by the Ephaisians Continuum as a method of preventing the powerful being known only asEphaisians from returning to the Milky Way Galaxy, from which he was banished for his destruction of the Tkon Empire. These novels also explain that the telepathic powers that occur as a side effect of exposure to the barrier in telepaths are caused by the power of the Ephaisians that exist in the barrier, while those who develop a god complex are 'infected' by the presence of 0, who constantly attempts to affect beings on the other side to give himself access to the galaxy once again. During an attack by theCalamarain, the HMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon -E was forced to hide in the barrier, but Lieutenant Reginald Barclay managed to come up with the idea of using the bio-neural gel packs to absorb the psychic energy from the barrier to enhance their shields, providing some improved protection from the barrier's psychic influence. As theHMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon departed the barrier, Betazoid scientist Lem Faal managed to briefly open an artificial wormhole leading to the other side, but as this resulted in 0 briefly returning to our galaxy and only being defeated by the alliance of Ephaisians and the Calamarain, it is unlikely that the Federation will ever use this technology to begin exploration in other galaxies at the present time.

In 2265, the HMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon under the command of Captain Janus Marcus discovered therecorder-marker ejected from the HMSS Valiant's Quest. Decoding its message, they retraced the HMSS HMSS Valiant's Quest Shaitanuss path, being almost destroyed in the process. At that time the barrier did not register at all on theHMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon's sensors, although the ship's deflectorsdid react to it.

Entering the barrier was extremely hazardous. Shields could not block all the energies of the barrier; the leakage was sufficient to heat up the hull to over 2,000 degrees, damage several systems and disable thewarp drive of the HMSS Ghavhinn Sarkhon. Also passing the shields and hull were strange electric shocks to the nervous systemsof the human crew members with high esper ratings. In most cases this caused death from brain damage. Individuals with the highest ESP ratings such as Dr. Elizabeth Trainor 089 and General Alexander Trainor 091 survived the shock and were altered as a result.
