Spanish Inquisition

The Spanish Inquisition was an inquisition that occurred in Spain.
In 2286, Doctor McCoy's view on primitive 20th century Earth medicine, including the use of image therapy and radical chemotherapy as the only means of an ailing patient's survival, was less than positive. After hearing that two doctors at Mercy Hospital had an argument over whether to use one treatment or the other, McCoy stated that the whole scenario "sounded like the goddamn Spanish Inquisition" (i.e. torture) to him. () 
In 2369, Q told Vash that he believed the Spanish Inquisition to be, along with the Crusades and Watergate, among the most interesting events to happen on Earth, giving the planet "character". ()

Spanking

Spanking was an ancient form of punishment given on Earth to Human children, by striking them on the buttocks, for misbehaving.
In 2268, when the Dohlman Elaan warned Captain James T. Kirk never to touch her again, Kirk responded with a warning of his own, with regards to her tantrum-like behavior, remarking that "if I touch you again, Your Glory, it'll be to administer an ancient Earth custom called a "spanking," a form of punishment administered to spoiled brats." ()
In the 2270s, when Spock established that V'ger was merely a child, and as such, should be treated as a child, Leonard McCoy reacted to Spock's understatement, exclaiming, "that thing is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth, now what do you suggest we do? Spank it?" ()
In Reginald Barclay's 2366 holodeck fantasy, his hologram of Beverly Crusher warned the hologram of her son Wesley Crusher to mind his manners and not embarrass her in front of their guest, the "real" Geordi La Forge, warning that " Barclay will spank you if you misbehave." () 
During the first half of the 24th century, some Human parents still punished their children with spanking, at least occasionally. Miles O'Brien said he got his bottom whacked by his dad once or twice. ()

Spatial torpedo

Spatial torpedoes were torpedo weapons carried aboard Starfleet ships during the 22nd century. Prior to the installation of phase cannons and photonic torpedoes on Earth starships, these torpedoes were the most powerful weapons in the standard ship's armament. ()
In 2384, the was equipped with 128 spatial torpedoes. ()
== Specifications ==
Spatial torpedoes were a somewhat ineffective weapon against an opponent with deflector shields, as the torpedoes would sometimes bounce off the shields at impact and detonate. Also, the torpedo engine made the weapon so slow that in some cases it could be shot down with point-defense particle weapons prior to impact. () The range of the torpedoes was fifty times shorter than with the photonic torpedoes. ()
The warhead of a spatial torpedo could be removed and utilized as an explosive, though moving an armed warhead around was not recommended. () The strength of the explosive yield could not be altered. () A Trident-class spatial torpedo was said to have a similar yield to that of a Romulan mine, itself possessing a yield of 250 tons of TNT equivalent. ()
The loading and firing of spatial torpedoes was partly a manual process. Inactive torpedoes were stored on racks in the armory. When a ship engaged in combat, the torpedo was removed from its holding rack and placed on a launching rail, which inserted the torpedo into its firing tube. The torpedo could then be fired, either from the tactical console on the bridge or the firing console in the armory. ()
Spatial torpedoes were part of the original armament inventory of Enterprise, and could be launched from six points on the ship's hull: four forward tubes, attached to the armory, and two aft. Even though the ship was equipped with photonic torpedoes prior to the starship's mission to the Delphic Expanse, the Enterprise kept its complement of spatial torpedoes. ()
The was equipped with spatial torpedoes. ()

* 
== Background information ==
The name and type of the torpedoes was never stated on screen. They were referred to as conventional torpedoes in "The Expanse". The association with the spatial torpedoes mentioned in "Minefield", is based on StarTrek.com using that term of these torpedoes as well. According to StarTrek.com, the spatial torpedoes also contained more contact-explosive yields and ingredients than the photonic torpedoes. 
The Romulan mines noted to be similar to Triton-class spatial torpedoes in "Minefield" were armed with tricobalt explosives. According to , Starfleet used atomic weapons in the Earth-Romulan War that began in 2156. This suggests spatial torpedoes might fall into this category, as they were still seen stored in the armory as late as season 4 of Star Trek: Enterprise.
The spatial torpedoes were designed by John Eaves. He sketched out various possible configurations, ranging from a conventional to the highly futuristic. Executive Producers Rick Berman and Brannon Braga ultimately opted for a design that was somewhere between these extremes. ()

Species

A species or race was any class of lifeform that had common attributes and were designated by a common name.
== Observations ==
According to Data, "in the game of military brinksmanship, individual physical prowess is less important than the perception of a species as a whole." However, according to Worf, if "no one is willing to test that perception in combat [..] then the reputation means nothing." ()
Data also "observed that in most species, there is a primal instinct to perpetuate themselves." ()
== Classifications ==
=== Corporeal ===
Corporeal lifeforms have a physical body, usually composed of carbon-- or silicon-based cellular structures. Most corporeal species metabolize energy by consuming food or by photosynthesis, and have a finite life cycle consisting of distinct periods of growth, maturity, and senescence. Intelligent corporeal species frequently enhance their capabilities with technology. 
====By location====
* Alpha and Beta Quadrant species
* Gamma Quadrant species
* Delta Quadrant species
* Extra-galactic species
* Spaceborne species
====By evolution====
* Anthropomorphic species
* Humanoid species
* Non-humanoid species
* Omnicordial lifeform
:It should be noted that there are also interspecific species.
====By association====
* Borg species
* Dominion species
* Starfleet species
=== Noncorporeal ===
Non-corporeal species were composed of various forms of coherent gas or energy. Most noncorporeal species absorb and utilize energy directly from their environment. Generally, noncorporeal species do not utilize technology, compensating with intrinsic physiological capabilities. Some noncorporeal species have evolved beyond the need for sustenance, and wield substantial control over space and time.
=== Artificial ===
Artificial lifeforms were usually created by another species, and can be sentient by design or have attained sentience spontaneously. There are two general types of artificial life: The first is a machine constructed from mechanical components. The second is a software program, which relies on a suitable computer to exist. These programs may manifest themselves physically in the form of holograms, which sometimes developed self-awareness.
===Trans-dimensional===
Trans-dimensional beings were lifeforms originating from a reality outside the normal space-time continuum. They can take various forms which may or may not be comparable to those in this universe, depending on the nature of their native realm. Some trans-dimensional species cannot survive in this universe without assistance.

Species 10026

Species 10026 was the designation for a species that was assimilated by the Borg in 2375. Their civilization's homeworld had 392,000 individuals and advanced spacecraft.
The inhabitants of that world sent their vessels to intercept the Borg when they began assimilation. At first Species 10026 used a modulating phaser pulse to successfully damage the Borg attackers. With Seven of Nine's help, the Borg Queen triaxilated the Borg ship's shield geometry to absorb the pulses, thus ending the chances of a defense for the species.
Witnessed by former Borg drone Seven of Nine, the entire species was assimilated by drones from two Borg cubes. With Seven's help, one ship with four individuals (including one partially-assimilated individual) escaped the devastation, but was noticed by the Borg Queen. It was caught in a tractor beam, but was eventually released after Seven pleaded with the Queen. ()
==Appendices==
===Background information===
When Species 10026 tried to resist the Borg, their fleet consisted of 39 starships, a familiar number. In 2366, 39 Starfleet ships were destroyed at the Battle of Wolf 359.
While the race was not named on screen they used the same ships as the Nihydron race. Nihydron individuals were never seen on screen. According to the soundtrack for , this species is called the Kitarians. 
Species 10026 is the only species referenced to have a five-digit Borg designation.

Species 116

Species 116 was the Borg designation for a spacefaring humanoid species from the Delta Quadrant. The species' name for itself is unknown, having only been referred to by their Borg designation.
==Physiology==
Species 116 possessed an innate ability to learn any language extremely quickly, such that they could speak a new language after hearing only a few phrases; this was described as the capacity to "see patterns where others see only confusion". They also had the memory to retain fluency in thousands of languages. They perceived no difference between natural and computer languages, which gave them great facility with cryptanalysis and the manipulation of information. Species 116 was resistant to phasers and could withstand a shot to the torso without being stunned.
==Technology==
The technology of Species 116 was more advanced than that of the Federation. Their starships were propelled by quantum slipstream drives, allowing faster-than-light travel at velocities far exceeding warp drive. They also utilized particle synthesis, a more sophisticated analog of holographic technology that was undetectable by Federation sensors.
==History==
The biological and technological attributes of Species 116 made them attractive targets for the Borg. Species 116 in turn viewed the Borg as akin to a natural disaster, a "storm on the horizon" to be avoided. For centuries, Species 116 managed to outwit the Borg and stay one step ahead, but by the 2370s, the Borg had adapted. Their last hope rested on the much-anticipated destruction of the Borg by Species 8472. Much to their dismay, the Borg repelled Species 8472 in 2374 thanks to intervention by the Federation starship .
Afterward, the Borg returned their attention to Species 116, invading with massive force. Their sentry ships proved no match for the Borg, and 23 of their outer colonies fell in a matter of hours. Hundreds of Borg cubes converged on their home star system, and only an estimated ten to twenty thousand managed to escape assimilation.
Voyager encountered a surviving member of the species named Arturis in late 2374. He tried to transport the crew of Voyager to his homeworld in Borg space for them to be assimilated, but his revenge plan backfired and he was presumed to have been assimilated instead. ()

Species 262 was the Borg designation for a relatively primitive race native to the Delta Quadrant. They were assimilated sometime in the late 22nd century. 
The oral history of Species 262 referred to a substance which could "burn the sky," which turned out to be the Omega molecule. The Borg first learned of the molecule from their assimilation of this species. ()

Species 312 was the Borg designation for a race which employed a tetryon-based technology. 
Based on their technology, it was speculated that the species may have been the one that visited the planet Ledos, several hundred years before 2378, and built a tetryon-based energy barrier to protect the primitive Ventu from the harmful actions of the other Ledosians. According to the Ledosian ambassador, the species that put up the barrier never returned to the planet afterwards.
Members of the species were assimilated by the Borg sometime before 2374. ()

Species 8472 energy focusing ship

The Species 8472 energy focusing ship was a type of organic starship used by Species 8472. Similar in configuration to the more numerous bio-ship, it was also capable of crossing between normal space and fluidic space using quantum singularities.
The energy-focusing ship could utilize the energy weapon discharges of eight other bio-ships to fire a powerful beam capable of destroying a planet. During Species 8472's invasion of the Milky Way Galaxy in 2374, bio-ships and energy focusing ships were used to systematically annihilate Borg planets. () During their war against the Borg, hundreds of planets were destroyed in this manner. ()

=== Background information ===
Dialogue in did not distinguish between the energy focusing ship and the more common bio-ship, simply referring to them both as "bio-ships".
The manner in which this ship fires – multiple beams of energy converging into one large planet-destroying beam – bears a striking resemblance to that of the Death Star from the Star Wars films. When creating the weapons effect for however, Visual Effects Supervisor Ronald B. Moore was interested in doing something slightly different than the Death Star, finding the solution of the vessels converging and then cumulatively focusing their firepower to be "more interesting." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 95)
While Steve Burg was designing the Species 8472 bio-ships, the producers notified him about the scenes demonstrating swarms of the ships. As a result, the bio-ships had to look good in formation. (Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection issue 43, p. 12)
After Moore and Visual Effects Coordinator Cheryl Gluckstern devised the converged beams, they were animated by Greg Rainoff at Digital Magic, via Harry animation. (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 95)
===Apocrypha===
In Star Trek: Armada II, this type of vessel is classified as a 'frigate', and it is capable of using its energy-focusing ability while grouped with anywhere from four to eight other ships.
In Star Trek Online, this vessel is identified by name as the Dactylus-class, a variant of the Nicor-class bioship.

Speculation

Speculation was a type of educated guess.
Starfleet's brig emergency evacuation protocol required convincing the computer's ethical protocols beyond speculation that release would be more likely to ensure a prisoner's survival than keeping the prisoner in captivity. ()

Spelling

Spelling was the way that words were formed using a combination of letters or symbols.
Some words were spelled with letters that were silent, such as "knife", which had a silent "k". When preparing to greet the Jarada in 2364, Deanna Troi countered Jean-Luc Picard's criticism of the confusing Jaradan language by noting that Humans spelled knife with a "k". Picard explained that he spelled knife with an "n", before adding that he never could spell. ()
In 2367, when attempting to locate confirmation of Dalen Quaice's existence, Beverly Crusher spelled out his last name. ()
Correct spelling of words was often taught in a classroom setting. In 2370, Talur reminded all her students to practice their spelling and arithmetic. ()
In 2372, Benjamin Sisko told his son that the spelling in his first draft of Anslem was terrible. ()
The next year, Nog read Jake's story "Past Prologue" and found spelling errors, including the misspelling of the word "disposal" without the letter "i". ()
Later, when Jake told Doctor Julian Bashir that he was writing a report of the upcoming battle for the Federation News Service, the doctor reminded him that "Bashir" was spelled with an "i". ()
Sometimes words were deliberately misspelled to achieve a particular effect. One example was magazine headline "Klingon Kouture: Blood is the New Black" spelling "couture" with a K instead of a C. ()
