Changes: Mercury (element)

Revision as of 01:52, 21 October 2015

Mercury is a chemical element with the symbol Hg and atomic number 80 on the Periodic table. It is a heavy metal that is liquid under standard temperature and pressure.

The remaining debris of the Caretaker's array contained mercury, hydrogen, helium, and argon. (VOY: "The Voyager Conspiracy")

Mercury was used in an instrument called a barometer to measure gaseous pressure. The atmospheric pressure of Taurus II measured 70 milimeters of mercury. (TOS: "The Galileo Seven")

In 2374, when the da Vinci hologram got hold of a plasma injector conduit from the USS Voyager, he noted that it was capable of making mercury flow in three directions at once. (VOY: "Concerning Flight")

TNG: "Rascals"

Background information

The script of the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Who Mourns for Morn?" describes the liquid latinum as having "the consistency of mercury."
