This is just star trek that happnes in the universe of the hit 2002 movie Thunderpants.
They could still refer to it as the ass-end of the ship
Make it so, Number Two!
Fart in Swedish means…
Speeed
You’d be amused to hear that “fart” in most Scandinavian languages means speed/movement/travel
So we have fartpilot, overfart, fartbump, fartkontrol etc
I personally could use more fartkontrol
Not sure if this applies to all Scandinavian languages, but I remember learning that the word for “end” in Swedish is “slut”.
Would “end of speed” be fartslut?
Yes!
Also, the last bus/train station is the slutstation. And that’s where you get off!
Amazing, what a beautiful language! (not sarcasm)
Why isn’t this loss
- “It’s simply impossible to go beyond fart factor 10.”
- “Eject the fart core!! (rip)”
- “I’ll execute you just like Tuvix if you ever change the type of beans in my coffee specification again!!”
- “We monitor for species that are on the verge of achieving the fart-drive technology.”
- “Bean me up, Scotty.”
- “The fart field extends around the ship traveling through fart-warped space, it’s like hot-boxing or Dutch ovenning.”
- “Foton torpedo, target their starboard fart-box, on my mark!”
- “Warning! Incoming fart signatures!!”
- “Do not reverse the polarity on the engine drive or we will all instantly get pink eye!!”
- “Who put hot-sauce on the Difarthium crystals?? The ship can’t take the extra boost!!”
- “Wesley, go clean the warp anuses!”This is not a thing I ever wanted to think about
After the Burn, captains did what they had to do.
Entering trumpspace
So… which one of you is going to ask Randall Munroe if this is plausible or not? Disregarding the the obvious frozen-butt problem, of course.
Farts are methane, right? The Space X raptor engine flies with subzero cooled liquid methane and an oxidiser.
So yeah it’s totally possible to have a fart drive.
Ejecting just farts would also work, but to a very smaller degree of effectiveness.
where are you getting the oxygen though
LOx
If every butt had a tiny airlock 2 door system that operated to a very accurate degree of opening and shutting just when the farts came out, and all simultaneously, I believe frozen butts can be avoided
“Fart” in norwegian means speed so checks out

Ye olde farts-humper
Number one.
Give it the beans.
Never watched star trek. No idea what this comic is trying to say. But I love the surrealist energy lol.
- Panel 1: The engine room of a starship, with giant cans of baked beans piped directly to the mouths of some heads poking out of the wall.
- Panel 2: An outside view of the rear of the starship, showing an array of butts protruding from the starship, implied to be the butts of the people in the wall in Panel 1.
- Panel 3: The starship captain issuing the command “fart”.
- Panel 4: The starship is now being propelled through space via the thrust generated by the array of farting butts from Panel 2.
This is more-or-less the same as the experimental drive introduced in Star Trek Discovery.
The reality where human technology developed around harnessing the power of farts is a strange one. Still better than ours, though.
But is it better than mycelium drive? 🤔
I propose a race!
Does the Discovery from this reality have a farting mushroom drive?..
