Object
Worf's Phaser (Borg Bridge Incident)
Worf's compact Starfleet phaser, used during the Borg incursion on the Enterprise bridge. In a chaotic confrontation, Worf fires precise energy bolts, vaporizing one Borg drone outright and striking another (later identified as Crosis) with a wounding blast that leaves it intact and alive. The weapon plays a pivotal role in the crew's immediate counterattack, witnessed by Data, Picard, Riker, and a security officer. The Borg vessel escapes via distortion field, leaving the fallen drone for examination. The phaser's use marks a critical moment in the crew's desperate defense against the Borg assault.
