I agree with that opinion and many episodes back that up. But, there is one or two episodes where the Enterprise is shrunk and Kirk looks into the ship through the viewing screen as though it were a window. One easy answer to this is that Kirk isn't really looking thru the viewing screen, he's just looking at the ship. The shot of his face on the viewing screen is just that, a picture from the bridge and in actuality (actuality !?! about a tv show !!!), Kirk can't really see anything. -- ==> Ephrayim J.
