Thought this was a fairly good tie up for this arc. The Romulans weren't seen.
I have thoroughly enjoyed Jeffrey Combs portrayal of Shran, so many layers, such a complete character. Really good work.
Sorta suprised by Trip's request.

Was a good episode last night.
Looks like Shran and the Aenar chick might have had a little somethin goin on.
Too bad this show is ending on a fairly strong season.
Promo at the end of the show requested viewers to tune into the "final" Enterprise shows.

I was also confused about whether Andoria was the moon or the planet, but now that I think about it, Damfino's probably right--the ringed planet was probably a gas giant, meaning no surface, so it's gotta be the moon.
I really like Shran. When I saw him in the Starfleet polar gear, I thought, "Hey, he lost his ship--he could become a member of the crew! An advisor or observer or whatever T'Pol's supposed to be." Doesn't look like that's gonna happen now, thanks to UPN.
Too bad we had to wait about 40 years after their first appearance for the Andorian race to get fleshed out. They're only about 50 times more interesting than Bajorans.
I laughed at the end when Shran said "You may not see me for a while. When a captain loses a ship, they don't hand him another one very quickly." He ought to join Starfleet then! No matter how many ships you lose, they'll just give you another one!"

Not bad for a cave episode.
I hope they have time to finish the "beginning of the Federation" stroyline before the season/series finishes, although I doubt it.

Why would the ringed planet have to be a gas giant? The planet in Star Wars 2 had a ring but it was a solid planet. I think it was blue since the planet is covered in ice. Shran said the planet's polulation lives under the ice and he didn't see the sky until he was a teenager. I think the blue planet was Andoria itself.

I'm hoping the series ends with the creation of the Federation. They still have time to work that into the last episode.

Really liked the new episode, and for a show that has takin more beatings than Rocky I 'm glad their going out with a solid season. Though most will say Enterprise was never any good (I disagree), the Andorian's were done very well.

I don't think I'd look to Star Wars for my astronomy knowledge...
Not that Trek has ever strived for much scientific realism either. I suppose it's possible for a solid planet to have rings, but right now all we have to go on are the planets in our own solar system, and of them, all 3 ringed planets are gas giants.
