Production
- The original bridge set had been destroyed decades before this episode, so the production staff re-created the bridge by building a single station from the bridge and the turbolift alcove, and combining it with a fan-made center console and captain's chair. The wide shot of the entire bridge was taken from the Star Trek episode "This Side of Paradise", after nearly the entire crew had beamed off the ship.
- When Scotty is rematerialized aboard the Jenolen, the sound and visual effects from the original series are used, not the teleportation effect usually used in the "Star Trek" film series, specifically, the blue "slash" pattern first seen in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“I really know nothing more criminal, more mean, and more ridiculous than lying. It is the production either of malice, cowardice, or vanity; and generally misses of its aim in every one of these views; for lies are always detected, sooner or later.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
“In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
