Trivia
This is the first time in Star Trek that a starship is shown landing (without crashing) on a planet's surface. The reason this was never shown on the original Star Trek (1966) was due to budget restrictions, which necessitated creating the transporter beam as a plot device.

Goofs
On Voyager's bridge, Amelia Earhart asks Lt. Paris, "How fast?" Lt. Paris replies "Warp 9.9. In your terms, that's about 4 billion miles per second." Four billion miles per second is 21,472.78 times the speed of light. This would have let Voyager travel the 75,000 light years it was sent in about 3.5 years, thus ruining the storyline of being over 70 years from earth and the Federation.

Quotes
Fred Noonan: [Noonan has been wounded, and the alcohol in his bloodstream is inhibiting the Doctor's attempts to heal him] There's just one thing I want to say to you first, even though it's four hundred years late. Amelia, I love you.
Amelia Earhart: Fred, you never said anything...
Fred Noonan: You're married, or you were. I guess he's dead now. I just wanted you to know before... before I met my maker.
The Doctor: There! That should do it.
Fred Noonan: Do what?
The Doctor: You're healed.
Fred Noonan: [Noonan looks, and his wound is gone] You mean I'm not gonna die?
The Doctor: Aside from a hangover, you're going to be fine.
Fred Noonan: [panicked] Oh, Amelia... you, uh, you gotta forget what I just told you! Promise me!
Amelia Earhart: [grinning] Fred, I already have.

Suspend your beliefs. Enjoy SF for what's it's supposed to be.

I am appalled at some of these reviews. Many are being so critical about the "science" and "technicalities". Just stop. One of the joys of reading or watching a Science Fiction novel or show is that it's NOT REAL. It's human nature to imagine what "could be". We want to envision what our life could potentially be like in the future. Why do so many people try to place our current reality into a fantasy world? Yea this episode is beyond far fetched. Yea it never could explain the disappearance of Amelia Aerhart. So what? That's not the intention of the writers. Their job was to ENTERTAIN and make you detach youself from reality for an hour. I LOVE this episode. Because I KNOW it's ridiculous. That would have never happened. Or.....could it have??? How do we know??? THATS my point...expand your mind and just accept it for what it is. Pure imagination which obviously many of the critics of this episode lack.
