Interphases

Star Trek Interphases

Star Trek Enterprise Fan Fiction

Canon

Interphases are a Star Trek canon construction, referring to “a phenomenon in which the fabric of space begins to break up, allowing an overlap of parallel universes on different dimensional planes.
Interphases
The rift itself also contained a “completely empty realm, devoid of life, between the dimensional planes”.

These scenarios are rife with possibilities for Star Trek fan fiction.

Thought Experiment

Starting with Temper, a “pulse shot” is used for time travel and, if
composed of dark matter, is also used in order to pass a person or a time ship to the Mirror Universe. But how was the pulse shot first invented? I decided to attach it to real technology and canon at the same time. Then the first pulse shot would be a mistake, a casualty of the end of the Third World War.

Furthermore, the original invention of what became the pulse shot comes from the destruction of the Large Hadron Super collider at CERN, in 2053. The bombing releases the vestiges of the hunt to reliably replicate the Higgs boson and causes small ripples through time. If a person or a shuttle or the like is hit with one such altered particle, incoherent and unexpected time travel is possible. However, there is no control over the travel, or how to get back. The subjects (they’re not really victims) solve their temporal displacement issues in various manners, as the changes are manifested in many different ways, and often seem to call existence into question.

The stories are listed in the order in which they happened in history, rather than the interphased time when the subject was sent to, or when the story might be related to others. All stories are Rated K unless otherwise stated.

Inspiration

A tribute to some of my own funkier inspirations.
