Star Trek: 10 Classified Starfleet Secrets

While exploring space, Starfleet has made a number of discoveries too dangerous to be made public.

You missed quite possibly the MOST classified secret ever held by Starfleet - the location of the toilets.

"Tech too dangerous to be shared"...Data playing with a Chinese finger trap - the editing is delightful 😂😂😂

[ainesheehan]

I appreciate the "like and Subscribe" inserted in the Talos directive - gold star for the graphics department. Had to go back and rewatch to be sure I didn't imagine it 😂

Sisko’s involvement in the killing of the Romulan senator and his staff that lead to the entry of the Romulans in to the Dominion war on the side of the Federation. As far as I know, that secret has never been exposed in canon.

[FoxyAlphaRogerTango]

I submit "Bringing the Romulans into the Dominion war", but I'm not sure it counts as "Classified by Starfleet" because they may not have even known the truth.

It's ambiguous at the end of "In the Pale Moonlight", as the episode ends with Sisko deleting the log, so we do not know if the actions of the episode were ever officially recorded. Just might be a dirty secret that Sisko and Garak took with them, never to be spoken of again.

Forgot to mention:

Kirk found Zefram Cochrain in TOS and agreed to keep his location a secret. But the lore will tell you that Zephram dissappeared in space shortly after breaking the warp barrier. Kirk found him alive but never logged the encounter out of respect for him.

I think the locations of restrooms on starships must be top secret. I've never seen one.

[EinChris]

Thalos IV was so secret, they had to shoot a second pilot ;-)

[mikeswanson]

The second time around with the exception of Data, any and all information regarding the Paxians was supposed to have been erased from the Enterprise -D's computers therefore there would have been no information for Starfleet to classify.

I think the most terrifying thing in the Federation isn't a secret at all its a general order. General Order 24 gives a Starfleet Captain or Flag Officer the right to blow up a planet if it contains a significant existential threat to the Federation. Worst still, the text of the order actually has the precise instructions for calibrating Photon Torpedoes to an atmospheric combustion mode to make this possible. As one Romulan diplomat observed "they come in their pleasure boats with their families and their infuriating bright and cheery curiosity about things that do not concern them but make no mistake. These Sehlats may look domesticated but they have vicious teeth that devour whole worlds"

[terrenced]

I like the Omega Directive, but one aspect of that episode always pissed me off: if it's classified and only Captains and above have access to the knowledge, why the hell does EVERY MONITOR on the ship shut down and show the omega symbol when it's detected? You can easily have the ship come to an automatic hault and come up with an excuse for it, but literally every person on Voyager saw the omega symbol on their consoles and it was initially like, "yeah, just ignore that." Worst way to keep a secret and stop gossip.

The most serious one not covered is CLEARLY the condition that causes Klingons to undergo morphological changes seemingly without explaination.

[NeilBlumengarten]

Genesis allowed is not! Is planet forbidden!

Don't forget about the Red Angel suit, the Guardian of Forever, and Joseph Sisko's Gumbo recipe

[KingOfMadCows]

I really dislike it when they treat technology bans as some kind of universal law that applies to the entire galaxy. Just because the Federation bans spore drives doesn't mean a random alien on the other side of the galaxy won't start developing it. And considering how many technologically advanced species are in the Milky Way, someone will inevitably discover the technology.

Interesting content and feedback.
Yes, as others have mentioned:
- the Guardian of Forever
- the whole God / Eden planet at center of the galaxy & god-like powers at edge of galaxy in TOS
- Spocks’s time travel formula (the solar sling-shot)
- Scotty’s transporting while at warp speed
- the creepy, screaming parasite creatures from TNG “Conspiracy” (I hope this topic is revisited more)
- Mannheim’s formulas and methods for screwing with time TNG “We’ll Always have Paris”

I would add to the Borg file. When 1701B rescued Guinan & Soran, it was known El-Aurians were refugees. I would think they mentioned who they were running from, especially since the Hansen's knew a little bit & were authorized by Federation to do more research a few years before the J-25 encounter.

Ok gotta give big ups to the editor of this video for the line of "...dangerous tech.." being lined up with video of Data interacting with a Chinese finger trap. Lmfao!

[ChristopherG]

I wonder if the omega directive still applies in the 32nd century because it was heavily implied that the 10-C were harnessing Omega since they were mining boronite, which was the same element the Borg used to synthesize Omega.

Ellie is so beautiful.

Wasn't there a scientist who used some proto-matter to reignite a star in an episode of DS-9?
