Stardate Sidebar: The stardate provided by Mr. Spock early in the episode as their arrival date at Benecia Colony is 2825.3 cannot be when they actually arrive at and depart Benecia Colony as it would be roughly in the middle of the search operations near Murasaki 312 as depicted in the next episode “The Galileo Seven.” Further, their arrival at Benecia Colony would be delayed by the events of the next episode and the need to get High Commissioner Ferris to Makus III.
