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:
“In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
—Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
“The production of obscurity in Paris compares to the production of motor cars in Detroit in the great period of American industry.”
—Ernest Gellner (b. 1925)
