    Did they exceed Warp 10? I thought Paris only hit the limit, not crossed. I’d rewatch to check, but… Then I’d have to watch the Warp 10 episode, and I’m not doing that again.

      Warp 10 and 10+ are the same thing, as you essentially are everywhere and everything at once. The tricky part is parking in your own corporeal form in your own time as far as I’ve come to understand it.

        In an early episode on TNG, Riker describes time warp as exceeding warp 10. Which makes sense - at warp 10 you arrive at your destination at the same moment that you left your origin, so at warp 10+ you arrive earlier than you left.

        This makes it seem like Tom Paris did park in the right place but did not come to a full stop and continued to “skid” in time.

        I like it.
