And what happens if you need to detect that undetectable tachyon pulse
signature and you've left off the tachyon pulse antenna?! It makes me sick

but never actually takes them out of earth's atmosphere.
A spacecraft should be like a Swiss army knife, a gadget ready for every
unforeseeable occasion!
