Arithrazine - Arithrazine is used for the most severe caes of theta radiation poisoning; Janeway orders the Doctor to give her 20 milligrams of this drug; according to Starfleet medical procedures, a physician must be present to monitor treatment using arithrazine; Janeway has the Away team get arithrazine injections before going to the surface. (Omega Directive)
Atom bomb - Janeway says that she knows how Einstein must have felt about the atom bomb as he watched helplessly as science took a destructive course. (Omega Directive)
Big bang - Federation cosmotologists had a theory that Omega once existed in nature for an infinitesimal amount of time at the exact moment of the Big Bang; some of them claimed that Omega was the primal source of energy for the explosion that began the universe. (Omega Directive)
Borg - Seven says that each drone's experiences are processed by the collective and only the useful information is retained; the Borg were able to create a single molecule of Omega and keep it stable for one-trillionith of a nanosecond before it destablized and destroyed 29 vessels and 600,000 drones; Seven says that to the Borg, Omega represents perfection; the Borg discovered Omega 229 years ago through the assimiation of 13 different species; every drone is aware of Omega and have been instructed to assimilate it at all costs. (Omega Directive)
Boronite - Seven says that the Borg didn't have enough boronite ore left to synthesize another Omega molecule after the first one destabilized. (Omega Directive)
Cargo Bay - The Omega molecules are transported to the Cargo Bay; Chakotay decompresses the Cargo Bay so that the harmonic chamber is jettisoned into space. (Omega Directive)

Gravimetric torpedo - Janeway tells Tuvok to fire a gravimetric torpedo at the remaining Omega molecules that have been jettisoned in the harmonic resonance chamber. (Omega Directive)
Harmonic resonance chamber - The Borg designed this chamber to contain and stabilize Omega; the chamber can be modified to emit an inverse frequency that will dissolve Omega's interatomic bonds; Janeway tells Seven to increase the harmonic resonance of the chamber so that the molecules will be neutralized more quickly; Chakotay decompresses the Cargo Bay so that the harmonic chamber is jettisoned into space. (Omega Directive)
Human - Kim says that Seven is probably the most intelligent human being alive since she has retained the knowledge of 10,000 species. (Omega Directive)

Kelvin - Chakotay tells Paris to modify the shuttle to withstand the extreme thermal stress of at least 12,000 Kelvins. (Omega Directive)
Ketteract - Omega was first synthesized over a 100 years ago by a Starfleet physicist named Ketteract; Ketteract managed to synthesize a single molecule of Omega but it only existed for a fraction of a second before it destabilized and Ketteract and 126 of the Federation's leading scientists were lost in the accident. (Omega Directive)
Lantaru - The Lantaru sector was the location of the classified research center where Ketteract first synthesized an Omega molecule; the station and the scientists there were killed when Omega destabilized; it is imposible to create a stable warp field in the Lantaru sector because of this accident; Paris says that he was told that it was a natural phenomenon. (Omega Directive)
Marcus - Janeway says that she knows how Marcus felt when she developed the Genesis device and watched helplessly as science took a destructive course. (Omega Directive)
Multiphasic shielding - Chakotay tells Torres to install multiphasic shielding around the warp core. (Omega Directive)
Omega - Voyager's sensors detected the Omega phenomenon within 1.2 light years; the instructions in the secured file order Janeway to implement the Omega Directive; the Borg were able to create a single molecule of Omega and keep it stable for one-trillionith of a nanosecond before it destablized; they were unable to synthesize another one because they didn't have enough boronite; Seven says that Omega is infinitely complex, yet harmonious and to the Borg it represents perfection; Seven determines that there may be hundreds of Omega particles within 10 light years of Voyager; Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet; Janeway says that Omega is a threat to the entire galaxy and that only starship captains and federation flag officers have been briefed on this threat; she says that it is the most powerful substance known to exist; a single Omega molecule contains the same energy as a warp core; in theory a small chain of them could sustain a civilization; Omega was first synthesized over a 100 years ago by a Starfleet physicist named Ketteract; Ketteract managed to synthesize a single molecule particle of Omega but it only existed for a fraction of a second before it destabilized and destroyed the research station and caused subspace ruptures extending out several light years; an unexpected secondary effect of Omega is that it destroys subspace which makes it impossible to create a stable warp field; a chain reaction involving a handful of Omega molecules could devastate subspace throughout the quadrant and make warp travel impossible; the Borg discovered Omega 229 years ago; Species 262 referred to Omega as a powerful substance which could burn the sky; Species 263 believed that Omega was a drop of blood from their creator; Federation cosmotologists had a theory that Omega once existed in nature for an infinitesimal amount of time at the exact moment of the Big Bang; some of them claimed that Omega was the primal source of energy for the explosion that began the universe; the alien tells Seven that they were able to synthesize about 200 million Omega molecules; Particle 010 is the Borg designation for Omega; every drone is aware of Omega and have been instructed to assimilate it at all costs; the Omega molecules are transported to the Cargo Bay; Seven is able to neutralize some of the molecules; right before Voyager jettisons the harmonic chamber, Omega begins to stabilize; the remaining Omega molecules are destroyed by the gravimetric torpedo. (Omega Directive)
Omega Directive - After Voyager encounters the Omega phenomenon, Janeway accesses the secured file on Omega and is ordered to implement the Omega Directive; protocol forbids Janeway from discussing Omega with the crew; Janeway says that the Omega Directive authorizes her to use whatever means necessary to destroy Omega. (Omega Directive)
Particle 010 - Particle 010 is the Borg designation for Omega. (Omega Directive)
Prime Directive - When Tuvok points out to Janeway that they are about to violate the Prime Directive, she says that for the duration of this mission the Prime Directive is rescinded. (Omega Directive)
Protostar - Kim thinks that Voyager has encountered a type 6 protostar and that the captain is planning on detonating it and opening a wormhole to the Alpha Quadrant. (Omega Directive)
Sensor array - According to her daily log, Seven and Kim are supposed to run a comprehensive diagnostic of the aft sensor array. (Omega Directive)
Shuttlecraft - Chakotay tells Paris to modify the shuttle to withstand the extreme thermal stress of at least 12,000 Kelvins. (Omega Directive)
Species 262 - The Borg assimilated information about Omega from this species; Species 262 was primitive but their oral language referred to a powerful substance which could burn the sky. (Omega Directive)
Species 263 - The Borg assimilated information about Omega from this species; Species 263 was primitive and believed that Omega was a drop of blood from their creator. (Omega Directive)
Starfleet - Omega was first synthesized over a 100 years ago by a Starfleet physicist named Ketteract; after Starfleet realized Omega's power, they supressed all knowledge of it. (Omega Directive)
Subspace - An unexpected secondary effect of Omega is that it destroys subspace which makes it impossible to create a stable warp field; a chain reaction involving a handful of Omega molecules could devastate subspace throughout the quadrant and make warp travel impossible. (Omega Directive)
Warp core - A single Omega molecule contains the same energy as a warp core. (Omega Directive)
Wildman - Seven assigns Wildman to get the power relay online. (Omega Directive)
