The Time travel was achieved using the Light Speed Breakaway Factor. I guess this is based on the method Spock/Scott used to return through time after hitting the black hole. The Enterprise was not detected as it had its Shields up. After hitting the black hole, the shields (and most everything else) was down. Spock states that 'Mr. Scott now has the shields up, which will prevent us from further being detected' (or something to this effect). Cheers, Gern
