MACO -
Acronym meaning "Military Assault Command Operations". It refers
to the military
personel assigned to Enterprise after the Xindi
attack on Earth.
"The Expanse" [ENT]
Their uniforms are grey-tone camo jumpsuits.
"The Xindi" [ENT]
Archer believes that the MACO's tactics and
technology are two or three years beyond Starfleet's
and decides they should have training sessions with
Reed's security crew. Reed replies that his men
have just as much experience if not more since the
MACOs trained on Earth in simulated combat.
One of the drills was a specialized rifle training
session that the MACO's developed at Jupiter station
early in 2153, where the goal is to hit as many
targets as you can in 10 seconds. The level 4 record
belongs to Cpl. Amanda
Cole. "Harbinger"
[ENT]
They were picked by Major Hayes.
"Countdown" [ENT]
SEE: Crew
Manifest, MACOs.
Madam Chang's - Dr. Phlox loves
the egg drop soup at this restaurant but decided not to revisit it when
they got back to earth for fear that his presence
might provoke an incident because of the xenophobia
associated with the Xindi attack. Travis and
Hoshi did go however, and Hoshi promised to bring
Phlox some
take-out.
"Home" [ENT]
He and Hoshi went to the restaurant. It had
become more popular, and there even was a wait to get
in, probably because Hoshi had been telling many
Starfleet people about the place. Dr Phlox was kidnapped
after leaving the
restaurant.
"Affliction" [ENT]
Maglock - A system utilizing
magnetic force to attach two objects. The Enterprise grapplers
use
maglocks. These locks can be disrupted by the
presence of eisilium.
"Breaking the Ice" [ENT]
Magnesite - Harrad Sar claimed
to have discovered a planet with large deposits of magnesite --
enough to build a thousand warp reactors. He
claimed that he didn't have the infrastructure to get
the magnesite out of the ground. So he wanted
Starfleet to construct mining facilities from which
he'd get a ten-percent
share.
"Bound" [ENT]
Magnetic
constrictor - Component of a starship's warp core.
A series of "magnetic constrictors" align the "positron
stream" in order to regulate the positron
flow
in the dilithium
matrix. If any stray particles escape, backups automatically
kick in. During one of
the training tests on the warp five engine, there
was a momentarily loss of both the primaries and the
backups... About a billion positrons
cut through the plating on three decks and nearly caused a hull-
breach. A month was spent redesigning the
system and it hasn't given them a single problem since.
"Cold Front" [ENT]
These are "locked down" to help get the reaction
rate down to prevent a warp core breach.
"Caretaker" [VOY]
Torres uses a phaser to burn through Dreadnought's
magnetic constrictor casing to try to detonate the
warhead.
"Dreadnought" [VOY]
Seska tells Jonas to damage Voyager's warp coils by
forcing the magnetic constrictors out of alignment.
"Lifesigns" [VOY]
In 2372, Michael Jonas sabotaged Voyager's magnetic
constrictors so that they lost alignment.
This in turn affected the injector valves and caused
the plasma to be too hot, severely damaging the
inner layer of the warp coils. Voyager was
forced to vent the plasma. The resulting damage was
designed to force Voyager to visit a planet called
Hemikak where Kazon forces were lying in ambush.
