< Can anyone name the episode(s) where the Enterprise is seen orbiting a

I seem to recall that in THE NAKED TIME the bridge viewer indicated a
right-to-left movement. This is the episode where the crew is overcome
by the intoxicating effects of a foreign substance passed in their
sweat. Riley (One more time, Kathleeeeeen...) shuts off the Big-E's
engines and they have to do a cold start to escape a decaying orbit.
I think the viewer shows cloud tops whoooshing by from left-to-right
(which means the Big-E is traveling right-to-left). When I saw this
episode, I thought that they screwed up their "standard orbit, Mr.
Sulu" bit!

Can anyone verify this? I'm too lazy to dig out my tapes.
