Trivia

[edit]
  • The story is reminiscent of Jacques Sternberg’s novel "La sortie est au fond de l’espace" (The Exit Lies At The End Of Space), where mankind, fleeing a vermin-infested earth, and nearly escaping obliteration from various hazards seen on different planets finally meets its ultimate fate on a planet where nobody is able to sleep which leads to everyone dying from sleep deprivation.
  • In 1997, British musician Alan Davey (bass guitarist with the band Hawkwind) released an album, Bedouin, containing tracks named "One Moon Circles" and "Eyes In The Dark".
  • The name on the model for the USS Brattain was misspelled "Brittain."
  • The Brattain may be named for U.S. electronics pioneer Walter Brattain, co-inventor of the transistor and co-recipient of the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics.
  • Ensign Sariel Rager (Lanei Chapman) also made an appearance in the episode "Schisms", a similar horror-based episode also dealing with nightmares and lack of sleep.

[edit]

It is not entirely clear why all of the episodes listed under see also are there. Some have thematic similarities to this episode, but so do several other TNG episodes.Dunarc (talk) 20:31, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
