Trivia:
The character of Dax in this film (a young crew member questioned during the search for incriminating evidence) is no relation to the character of Dax from "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" (1993). DS9's Dax would, at the time of this film, be in the persona of Curzon Dax, a Federation ambassador, which is clearly not the case for the character of this film. The name was a coincidence.

Goofs:
Factual errors: The explosion of the Klingon moon, Praxis, would have done more than possibly contaminate the atmosphere of the Klingon homeworld. The magnitude of the explosion portrayed would have altered the planet's orbit around its parent star, thus permanently altering (i.e., destroying) its ecological and meteorological systems.

This is a taut political thriller that rivals Dune for impact, if not for complexity. The issues explored here are both timely and universal. Somehow, this mixes the Star Trek mythos with commentary on the Cold War, race relations and military down-sizing. It is indescribable how cool this movie is.
