What do you think are some of the worst examples of Treknobabble in the franchise?
And what series do you think does it poorly the most often?

I’ll try extrapolating the verteron exovector (or something like that)
Harry Kim Voyager S1E1
Thanks, that sent me Googling. “KIM: I’ll try extrapolating the verteron exit vector. No, I can’t get it. There’s a strange phase variance in the radiation stream. We’ll have to wait until the probe exits.” Episode 6 (another wormhole?!) http://www.chakoteya.net/Voyager/106.htm
Thanks, couldn’t remember the exact line
at least there’s only one word in there that makes it complete nonsense, “extrapolating a vector” sounds vaguely sensible, technobabble for “i’ll have a guess at where it’s headed”
I’m going through Voyager now and I feel like they do this nonsense more than any of the other Treks thus far.
