Nomad Anatomy and Physiology

[Unit-sk855]

Addressing in order, had some RL business to attend. Fiance needed help with some homework.

I would also add that nomad ships have "bones" as well,

I agree that they do have a bone like structures running throught them. The longer video shows this well. The series of tube like framing that can be seen inside the nomad ship is what I interpreted it as. I put notation of the H/I in the plant cell assosiation list as the Endoplasmic reticulums being like bones. Ill add more about them actually supporting structure, and developing as a skeleton of sorts, rigid in some parts, and pliable in others.

I also agree with the telepathy, she has not gotten to that stage in the research yet to substantiate her findings on it. I did however hint to it here

She looked at the various pods, pressed her forehead gently on the glass and looked inside. After going back and fourth a bit, she felt one of them pull on her consciousness. It was very slight, but she could sense its energy over that of the others. This one was her candidate.

The fighter that she purchased was slightly emitting an energy signal that Alice was able to pickup. All of the fighters do it, just the specific one she picked was stronger to her specific brainwaves, or energies. I quite like that idea of nomad design, along with the hive mind workings.

oh and is there any chance a virus such as Alpha Red from the NJO series being developed to kill them specifically?

I am not sure of what series your talking about, but i know what you mean. Being the Nomads are a life form, there would be means to influence their organic systems. The short answer is yes it would be possible to effect the Nomad ships, but the nomads themselves im not sure on. What I have understood of them so far is that the Nomad itself is a being of energy, that takes control of a physical form rather than being within it from the start. So destroying the organic creature may not kill that specific nomad. I have not seen a nomad outside of its host or ship otherwise.

why does my freelancer version not play that extended video?

It was removed from the game, speculations point that it was because the nomads were made out to be to powerful in that video. It was only availible i think on a bonus cd that came with the freelancer sound track.

and to the rest of your questions jinx:

The nomads that possessed people would also fly the organism ships much in the same way. Ive always felt that the nomads are beings of energy, while their weapons are organisms they control. It explains how they are able to possess people and control them.

The nomads probably seemed to lack a cruise function in the single player because you were meant to fight them. However, they do have their own sound effect for a cruise engine so that points to differing technology. it sounds like a high pitched whine. I'm not sure of any other ships in discovery that use this sound.

The spinny glowy stuff are the various organels within the ships. Id have to take a closer look to compare, but they are pretty much larger versions with many similarities as has been pointed out. I may move onto larger ships later with more details on them if this first series of research works out.

Ill update and post more information in a bit.

Oh, and i would love that picture.
