Full Metal Attorney, #13: "not based on science (though I'm no expert in that), even though it was in a Star Trek: TNG episode."
That was tongue-in-cheek, right? 'Cause ST is well known for its technobabble and for taking place in a universe filled with makeupanameon particles. (At least most of the time, TOS and TNG sounded like the technobabble might actually mean something. I could never get fully into later series; their "technobabble" got more and more into "technogibberish" territory.)
As it happens... I actually wrote a ST:TNG episode, "Clues". (I may be "The Most Famous Star Trek Writer You've Never Heard of"; though I've sold about a dozen short stories over the years, that script sale was not only an outlier, but a way-y-y-y-out-there outlier. A bit of talent, some serendipitous timing, and a lot of luck; never managed to sell a second script, though I went in for pitch sessions several times.)
The story for "Clues" involved a mysterious planet hidden in a bubble of clear space inside a dust cloud. No astronomer me, I blue-skied that idea out of thin air. But I knew an astronomer, Pete Manly, and I ran that scene by him to try to keep myself from looking too stupid.
As it turned out, such clear spaces can actually exist inside dust clouds. They're called t-Tauri systems, and I edited that information into my first draft before sending it off.
So that episode of ST:TNG actually has real science in it.
But it was an accident. I didn't mean to.
