This makes a Phaser sound like it incorporates a Fiber laser

Phasers incorporate powerful particle accelerators capable of firing things with a mass comparable to a human cell.

TORRES: Patching a hole before it opens.
KIM: That'll never hold.
TORRES: It'll hold a minute or two, and with any luck that's all we need. Seven, take over here. I need an EPS relay.
KIM: Er, there's one in the transporter control circuitry.
SEVEN: The panel is sealed.
TORRES: Good. Get away from it.
(She attaches the relay to a device she has taken from a locker.)
TORRES: I need a phaser.
(Kim throws one to her. She plugs it into the device as the repair starts to buckle. Then she turns the phaser on and adjusts the EPS relay power feed.)
TORRES: Watch out. I don't know if this is going to work.
(She creates a forcefield across the area of the microfractures. When the hull breaches, the ship is still safe.)
KIM: Glad you decided to come along.
Phasers appear to incorporate some sort of force field to contain the Phaser beam and discriminate between the target and its surroundings that is similar to the force fields used on the ships.Franchise: Star Trek Series: TOS Movie Title: The Undiscovered Country wrote: http://movies.trekcore.com/gallery/albu ... hd1435.jpg
