Prime Timeline
(The root of all realities)


A beach was a geologic formation where a body of water and a landmass met, and was typically composed of loose sand. While infected with polywater intoxication, Captain Kirk lamented that there was "no beach to walk on," euphemistically referring to the isolation his position as commanding officer demanded that he keep from much of his crew, including any feelings he may have felt for Yeoman Janice Rand.[1] While introducing Ensign D'Vana Tendi to the U.S.S. Cerritos NCC-75567, Ensigns Boimler and Mariner demonstrated the capability of the ship's holodeck with a simulation of a beach in Hawaii on Earth.[2]
