NASA is launching a "Europa Clipper" spacecraft to go to Europa in
October 2024, but it of course won't be a manned mission. I haven't
seen this Picard episode, but perhaps you were getting confused about
her actually physically going there.
<https://europa.nasa.gov/mission/about/>
I'm not confused, it's definitely a manned mission, the astronaut
Picard's great-niece, is being put into quarantine to be launched the
next day, in 2024. And as to visiting IO is NASA really going to plan
2 landings? And what about all the radiation?

If you read the other threads on this show, you might learn that Io is
also a moon along with Europa.

Not that they're paying attention, but Star Trek history is quite
different from ours. For instance, we didn't have World War III -- at
least, not yet. Of course, Voyager completely ignored WW3 when the
ship went back in time to meet Sarah Silverman.

I know people have already commented on the Guinan weirdness, where she doesn't remember Picard even though she'd already met him in the 1800s
with Mark Twain, but if they're going to retcon her into not knowing
Picard in 2024, why would she be operating a bar at 10 Forward Street?
Even if she *did* remember Picard from the 1800s, she still wouldn't
know about the Enterprise-D and its 10-Forward lounge until the 23rd
Century, so we're just supposed to think her Los Angeles dive bar was a tremendous coincidence or something?
All I can conclude is that entire writers room was spectacularly high
and this whole subplot came about when one of them giggled through a
cloud of pot smoke, "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if..." and that's as much thought as any of them put into it.

The TNG writers were proud of not knowing anything about TOS. Maybe their tradition continues and the Picard writers don't know anything about TNG.

That's pretty much standard operating procedure for Hollyweird.
The makers of the new "Halo" TV series proudly stated they never looked
at or dicussed the games.
Jonathan Frakes was put in charge of the "Thunderbirds" movie, but knew absolutely nothing about the original show, then watched a couple of
episodes and thought he knew it all (and the movie proves he still knew nothing).
The first Smurfs cinema movie stupidly moved the characters to New York.
The list of blunders is near endless. :-(

More likely, none of them (or the producers) are at all familiar with previous series. It's not like ST has ever given a damn about
continuity *within* a series, much less between them.

It was? I thought it was an arbitrary name. Well, she still could have selected the placement to fit the name. It's a bit more of a stretch, but it seems within possibility.

that would not have been possible. There is no way an
individual could show up at the ship design offices or the
shipyard and just said, "Put a bar in the ship here."
But we're talking about Hollywood writers so of course it is
possible in the show.

two landings. Get the most out of the ship before its
electronics become fried beyond operability.

Does nobody connected to this show understand science fiction? Does
nobody connected with this show understand current events?
I could defend this, but the hacks behind this don't understand Star Trek >>> history either.
Not that they're paying attention, but Star Trek history is quite
different from ours. For instance, we didn't have World War III -- at
least, not yet. Of course, Voyager completely ignored WW3 when the
ship went back in time to meet Sarah Silverman.
I know people have already commented on the Guinan weirdness, where she doesn't remember Picard even though she'd already met him in the 1800s
with Mark Twain, but if they're going to retcon her into not knowing
Picard in 2024, why would she be operating a bar at 10 Forward Street?
Even if she *did* remember Picard from the 1800s, she still wouldn't
know about the Enterprise-D and its 10-Forward lounge until the 23rd
Century, so we're just supposed to think her Los Angeles dive bar was a tremendous coincidence or something?

wouldn't have been an Enterprise D captained by Picard to go back in

I rolled my eyes at that too. But it's easy enough to fanwank. She
named the bar on the Enterprise after her bar on Earth. It might very
well be coincidentally on the 10th deck, but if her bar wasn't there no
one would call it 10 forward.

Maybe she named the bar on the Enterprise-D after the one on Earth?
Only if you forget that the bar was in the Forward Compartment of Deck 10.
It was? I thought it was an arbitrary name. Well, she still could have selected the placement to fit the name. It's a bit more of a stretch, but it
seems within possibility.
In any organization worth being called an "organization", no, that would
not have been possible. There is no way an individual could show up at
the ship design offices or the shipyard and just said, "Put a bar in the
ship here."

I'm not sure that's right. Was there ever an introductory episode for her character where they said she just came aboard that day? Or was she just tending bar the first time we saw her. After she was an established
character we still saw the bar running without her probably more often than not. So she could've easily been there from day one.
This is easy enough to confirm. Be right back.
Bah. No, it's not. Guinean's's first appearance is S02E01 "the child"
Problem is it went behind a pay wall again probably on April 1.
The only place I can watch it free is planet Pluto and there I can only
wait for when it comes around. Not gonna happen.

She named the bar on the Enterprise after her bar on Earth.
A quick Google search turns up mostly Star Trek references, but
there are also a few other real-life places using that name,
including a "performing arts venue and bar" in Massachusetts.

She named the bar on the Enterprise after her bar on Earth.

there are also a few other real-life places using that name,

Are there any that aren't clearly based on the show?

Only if you forget that the bar was in the Forward Compartment of Deck 10.
It was? I thought it was an arbitrary name. Well, she still could have
selected the placement to fit the name. It's a bit more of a stretch, but it
seems within possibility.
Guinan wasn't even the original bartender. And that's all she ever was:
a bartender. She didn't own the place such that she could decide where
on the ship it was going to be or what it should be referred to.
The starship's designers in Starfleet HQ were the ones who decided to
include a recreational lounge and pit it on the leading edge of the >Enterprise's saucer on Deck 10.

https://i.imgur.com/xeBbHSc.jpg
In any organization worth being called an "organization", no, that would
not have been possible. There is no way an individual could show up at
the ship design offices or the shipyard and just said, "Put a bar in the
ship here."
Exactly.
Here's an interesting article on how the lounge itself didn't really fit >where it would be on the original model of the ship and how that was
changed when subsequent models of the ship were made.
https://whatculture.com/tv/star-trek-10-more-secrets-of-the-uss-enterprise-d-you-need-to-know?page=5
The Ten Forward lounge was introduced at the start of STAR TREK: THE
NEXT GENERATION's second season in the episode "The Child". Prior to
that, numerous lounge and dining areas appeared aboard the Enterprise-D
as temporary "swing" sets (like the dining room in "Haven") or redresses
of the crew quarters (see "Justice"), but Ten Forward was intended to be >permanent standing set and a place to tell more personal stories about
the Starfleet crew.
The impressive Ten Forward set was designed by Herman Zimmerman and >constructed when the production moved to a new, larger soundstage. With
its three bays of windows looking out into space, the producers decided
to place Ten Forward at the tip of the Enterprise's saucer to match the >numerous clusters of windows that already existed on the filming
miniature.
According to the ships' designer, Andrew Probert, those windows were
intended to be lounge areas, but they weren't supposed to look like Ten >Forward. Worse, as envisioned by Probert, the tip of the Enterprise's
saucer wasn't even large enough to accommodate Ten Forward as it was >designed. The lounge was too big to fit in the space where it was
supposed to be on the ship.
Much to Probert's irritation, the producers ignored existing concept
artwork for those areas as well as pre-determined deck sizes, choosing
the underside of the saucer section for Ten Forward's location. This
decision created a discrepancy between the Enterprise-D filming
miniature and the sets, until a second model of the ship was constructed
in the third season which reflected the redesigned saucer section.
Still, footage of the older model and the new one was used
interchangeably throughout the rest of the series, creating a whole
other set of problems...
During preproduction on STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION, the producers
were able to secure the services of ILM (usually reserved for major
motion pictures, including the TOS features) to construct the filming >miniature of the Enterprise-D. ILM also shot numerous pieces of stock
footage of the Enterprise flying past camera, entering orbit, jumping to >warp, and other generic shots which the producers planned to use
throughout the run of the show.
That plan was quickly proved to be shortsighted and new footage of the >Enterprise was deemed necessary for the rest of the season, though it
would have to be filmed without ILM. Still using the six-foot model,
TNG's VFX producers found the Enterprise-D miniature difficult to shoot
due its size and awkward mounting points.
By the third season, the producers commissioned another, smaller model
of the Enterprise, which was constructed by Gregory Jein. This new
four-foot model featured an expanded saucer rim (so that Ten Forward
could finally, realistically fit inside the ship) and exaggerated hull >paneling and details. Called a "bulldog" by VFX producer Dan Curry for
it's "stockier" build, the four-foot Enterprise debuted in the episode
"The Defector" as new footage intercut with older shots of the six-foot >model.
Due to footage of the two models being intercut like that, the
Enterprise-D would often change appearance between scenes, from the
sleeker, smoother six-foot Enterprise to the more detailed and stockier >four-footer, within any given episode.
Discrepancies in the Enterprise-D's appearance only worsened with the >introduction of CGI models of the ship, starting with 1994's STAR TREK >GENERATIONS. For that film, ILM yet again provided the visual effects, >shooting new effects sequences with the original six-foot model (with
new details and a new paint scheme) as well as creating a
computer-generated model of the ship. While close in appearance to the
two physical models, ILM's digital Enterprise-D still featured a more >pronounced deflector dish and blockier appearance.

Oh, I didn't think when the shuip was designed, someone decided to put a bar there in every shipo of that type. I assumed there were empty slots and someone
thought it would be clever to buy that one for their bar.

Without visiting them all and them all having a "why we called
it this" page (or emailing/phoning them to ask), there's no way
to know. One is an after-school centre, so may well be for kids
10 years and old, hence "TenForward".

I'm not sure that's right. Was there ever an introductory

After she was an established character we still saw the bar

World War III -- at least, not yet. Of course, Voyager
completely ignored WW3 when the ship went back in time to
meet Sarah Silverman.
I know people have already commented on the Guinan
weirdness, where she doesn't remember Picard even though
she'd already met him in the 1800s with Mark Twain, but if
they're going to retcon her into not knowing Picard in 2024,
why would she be operating a bar at 10 Forward Street?
I complained bitterly about Guinan not remembering Picard
from the 1880s. But someone else pointed out that in the new
timeline there wouldn't have been an Enterprise D captained
by Picard to go back in time and meet her.
Even if she *did* remember Picard from the 1800s, she still
wouldn't know about the Enterprise-D and its 10-Forward
lounge until the 23rd Century, so we're just supposed to
think her Los Angeles dive bar was a tremendous coincidence
or something?
I rolled my eyes at that too. But it's easy enough to
fanwank. She named the bar on the Enterprise after her bar on
Earth. It might very well be coincidentally on the 10th deck,
but if her bar wasn't there no one would call it 10 forward.
But she wasn't the manager/operator of the Enterprise lounge
from the beginning. She only showed up later, after it was
already named and established-- and then only because of its
literal deckspace on the ship.
I'm not sure that's right. Was there ever an introductory
episode for her character where they said she just came aboard
that day? Or was she just tending bar the first time we saw her.
After she was an established character we still saw the bar
running without her probably more often than not. So she
could've easily been there from day one.
If memory serves, Guinan's always been there and had a
mysterious past with Picard.
Less mysterious, perhaps, than you realize.
Memory Alpha has a pretty decent complation from primary srouces.

She and 10 forward both appear for the first time in the same episode which is suspicious.

That it was just an unused storage space or something and Guinan just
set herself up on the ship and used some strange alien ability to make
everyone think it had always been there and was perfectly normal.
In a rare case (the only one I can think of) of real Trek retconing crap Trek, the Enterprise A had its own 10 forward lounge (Taking up decks five and six forward) and we finally found out what those three big round
windows right in the front of the saucer were, of course this was a couple years after 10 forward premiered in TNG.

if they're going to retcon her into not knowing
Picard in 2024, why would she be operating a bar at 10
Forward Street?
I complained bitterly about Guinan not remembering Picard
from the 1880s. But someone else pointed out that in the
new timeline there wouldn't have been an Enterprise D
captained by Picard to go back in time and meet her.
Even if she *did* remember Picard from the 1800s, she
still wouldn't know about the Enterprise-D and its
10-Forward lounge until the 23rd Century, so we're just
supposed to think her Los Angeles dive bar was a
tremendous coincidence or something?
I rolled my eyes at that too. But it's easy enough to
fanwank. She named the bar on the Enterprise after her bar
on Earth. It might very well be coincidentally on the 10th
deck, but if her bar wasn't there no one would call it 10
forward.
But she wasn't the manager/operator of the Enterprise
lounge from the beginning. She only showed up later, after
it was already named and established-- and then only
because of its literal deckspace on the ship.
I'm not sure that's right. Was there ever an introductory
episode for her character where they said she just came
aboard that day? Or was she just tending bar the first time
we saw her. After she was an established character we still
saw the bar running without her probably more often than
not. So she could've easily been there from day one.
If memory serves, Guinan's always been there and had a
mysterious past with Picard.
She and 10 forward both appear for the first time in the same
episode which is suspicious.
It'd be hilarious if 10 Forward was never supposed to be on the
ship. That it was just an unused storage space or something and
Guinan just set herself up on the ship and used some strange
alien ability to make everyone think it had always been there
and was perfectly normal.

In a rare case (the only one I can think of) of real Trek retconing crap Trek, the Enterprise A had its own 10 forward lounge (Taking up decks five and six forward) and we finally found out what those three big round
windows right in the front of the saucer were, of course this was a couple years after 10 forward premiered in TNG.

Star Dreck Pick-a-card started out silly; I didn't get all the
way through the first episode of the first season. I am not at
all surprised that it's getting worse.
NASA is launching a "Europa Clipper" spacecraft to go to Europa
in October 2024, but it of course won't be a manned mission. I
haven't seen this Picard episode, but perhaps you were getting
confused about her actually physically going there.
<https://europa.nasa.gov/mission/about/>
I'm not confused, it's definitely a manned mission, the
astronaut Picard's great-niece, is being put into quarantine to
be launched the next day, in 2024. And as to visiting IO is
NASA really going to plan 2 landings? And what about all the
radiation?
Actually all the radiation would be why they would want to do
two landings. Get the most out of the ship before its
electronics become fried beyond operability.
Galileo orbited Jupiter for seven years. It was still functional
enough at the end of that time to deliberately de-orbit into
Jupiter. And that was nearly 30 years ago.
If you look into the history of the fascist left actually gaining
power (see every communist regime, ever, for instance), you'll find a
very consistent patter of them turning on their own as soon as
they're on top. When they run out of enemies to attack, they create
more from whoever is handy, and nobody is more handy than their own
sheep, who *never* see it coming.

I'm not confused, it's definitely a manned mission, the

be launched the next day, in 2024. And as to visiting IO is
NASA really going to plan 2 landings? And what about all the
radiation?
Actually all the radiation would be why they would want to do
two landings. Get the most out of the ship before its
electronics become fried beyond operability.
Galileo orbited Jupiter for seven years. It was still functional
enough at the end of that time to deliberately de-orbit into
Jupiter. And that was nearly 30 years ago.
Wasn't the Galileo orbitting far enough from Jupiter to make radiation
not a problem? I remember it was an issue for Casini, but it was making
close orbits to Jupiter.

She and 10 forward both appear for the first time in the same episode
which is suspicious.
It'd be hilarious if 10 Forward was never supposed to be on the ship.
That it was just an unused storage space or something and Guinan just
set herself up on the ship and used some strange alien ability to make
everyone think it had always been there and was perfectly normal.
In a rare case (the only one I can think of) of real Trek retconing crap Trek, the Enterprise A had its own 10 forward lounge (Taking up decks five and six forward) and we finally found out what those three big round
windows right in the front of the saucer were, of course this was a couple years after 10 forward premiered in TNG.
