“Patch me through to Commander Travis, Captain. You can be our relay.” “Yes, sir.” A few seconds later: “Captain…are you reading me?” “Yes, Atara. I’ve got Captain Rogan relaying the signal both ways.”
Author has no sense of story continuity. He just previously had Cmdr Travis (8) light minutes away, indicating time lag of (16) minutes for total "sent" &"receive." Another example of disingenuous, shoddy writing.
