The whole experience of using the Guardian of Forever for [[time travel]] was called being in the time vortex by [[Captain]] [[James T. Kirk]] and [[historian]] [[Erickson]]. When historians used the time vortex for replaying the history of [[Vulcan (planet)|Vulcan]], it caused a [[predestination paradox]] to unravel in [[2269]]. In the prime timeline [[Spock]] saved his own life as a child in [[2239]]. Spock, however, was only motivated to do so after his [[away team]] returned from the past of [[Orion]] to an [[alternate timeline]] where the viewing of history had revealed that Spock died as a child and had to be saved.
