I am curious if anyone has any ideas about the min/max/normal speed of Thrusters used on galaxy-class and similar ships. I know that the entry on "thrusters" states that Riker backed the ship off at 100 kph. Is that a normal speed?? Thanks.

:From what I understand, Thrusters are definately slower then the Impulse drive... but give the ship enough power to move when it needs to without impulse (See that one where picard navigated it through an astroid feild or when Archer did the same thing. --[[User:58.6.1.178|58.6.1.178]] 20:38, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
