How can you be able to sense emotions from sometimes light-years away? I often see her sensing others emotions from ships light years away and I just realized it and ik curious what the range of it is? (Silly or cannon response of course).

    Tam Elbrun and Ariana (from the episode Haven) were outliers and should not have been counted.

    I don’t think there’s a real rule. In Haven, Lwaxana Troi says basically anything is possible even for people who probably aren’t telepaths.

    What’s kind of wild is all the times Deanna’s empath abilities work over ridiculous distances mainly because there’s a subspace transmission involved. Apparently the specification requires support for telepathy to the extent she can even sometimes understand the emotional state of Ferengi.
