At the beginning of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Sybok tells a man that he met that he needs to get off of Nimbus III:

SYBOK: Join my quest.

J'ONN: What is it you seek?

SYBOK: What you seek. What all men have sought since time began, ...the ultimate knowledge. To find it, we'll need a starship.

How did Sybok get to the planet in the first place if he didn't have a starship?

  • I always assumed he bummed a lift on a freighter or some kind of cargo vessels. His obsession is with getting hold of a top class starship (be it Romulan, Klingon or Federation), not just passage off of the planet

  • @Ghanima Definitely possible, although that would raise the question of why he didn't use his mind tricks on that crew and just use their starship.

  • @Thunderforge - Because a cargo wessel wouldn't make it through the barrier.
