巴西联邦ABC大学物理学家尼克拉斯·德·阿圭亚尔·阿尔维斯对《星际迷航：下一代》第一季剧集《战役》中的一个经典战术进行了物理学分析1。这一被称为"皮卡德机动"的手法描述了星舰以曲速引擎加速至超光速后突然停止并开火，使对方在空间中同时观察到两个舰船影像位置，从而造成射击偏差1。
阿尔维斯在攻读硕士学位期间观看该剧集时发现了这一情节与相对论课程的联系1。他的研究表明，这一在剧中描述的机动方案包含了相对论的微妙之处，使其比剧本设想更具科学合理性1，同时为讲解相对论的鲜为人知特性提供了机会1。
Níckolas de Aguiar Alves, a physicist at Brazil's Federal University of ABC, has conducted a mathematical analysis of a starship maneuver featured in the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode "The Battle" from the show's first season 1. The research examines the theoretical basis of the technique employed by Captain Picard, which involves accelerating a starship to faster-than-light speed using warp drive technology, then abruptly halting and firing weapons while the opposing vessel observes two seemingly different positions of the attacking ship, causing targeting errors 1.
According to Alves's analysis, the maneuver contains subtle relativistic principles that make the fictional tactic more scientifically grounded than originally conceived in the episode's script 1. The physicist first recognized the connection between the dramatic sequence and relativity theory while watching the episode as a graduate student 1. His work demonstrates how the scenario provides an opportunity to illustrate lesser-known properties of relativity 1.
