    One thing that's always bugged me about crew members dying onboard — surely one of the very first techs that would be installed on a fully computerised ship would be vital sign monitors for crew, so that the instant someone in board comes to harm, it's reported?

    • Ha yes or just send fucking drones out to explore and make the tv show 100% terriblefadein11
    • I know, I know, artistic license, but I find it weird to think it's never accounted for unless they're on an away mission. It's the future, for crisakesdetritus
    • Just internal sensors would know this. Not even need anything biomedical on the physical person. We have some of the tech today, including thermal sensors etc.ETM
    • Given we already have Alexa etc., I would think the starship computer would passively listen/monitor everything in an "always on" state.ETM
