man this question is lame....

[cnfuzzd]

so i was flipping through channels, and watched two minutes of star trek:TNG. I got to thinking, Why dont the people in the star trek universe go everywhere at top warp speed? Money has been elminated, so do they just not want to get there as fast, or what? Sorry, this is seriously lame, i know.

peace

I think top warp speed F's up the space time continuum.

Yes, this was the subject of one of the later episodes.

Wow, you figured out that money has been eliminated in just 2 minutes?

At one point in SNG they discovered that warp speeds above Warp 6 unravelled the space-time continuoum, which would ultimately lead to the universe being ripped apart or something. Star Fleet then imposed a ban on travel faster than Warp 6, except for special emergencies. Later on (possibly during the time of Voyager) they figured out a way to reach Warp 6+ without the harmful effects.
