    The Organians are fascinating. They have heart and compassion, but won't take crap from lower species. And I find it interesting that they take human form for the benefit of the visiting humanoids, yet they say that doing that is extremely painful for them. It would be like us painfully reducing ourselves to, as Spock intimated, an amoeba and interacting with them. It's actually a fascinating episode. We humanoids just got spanked.

      They didn't say that their taking on human form was painful but the presence of "beings such as yourselves is intensely painful to us" (or similar). The discordant and violent emotions of the humans and klingons hurt them, not their faking a physical human form.

    Gotta give it to the Organians also. They could sense every single Klingon and Every Federation member ANYWHERE in the entire galaxy simultaneously, AND interpret their intentions. If anyone would even think of a hostile act, any potential weapon (including hands, feet etc) would feel like 350 degrees. Take that Q continuum!

      Or maybe their katra or soul or consciousness, whatever it is (I suspect a pattern of information in the fabric of reality or subspace or some other underlying reality that exist outside or as the foundation for the Universe), is shaped in such a way that their consciousness is the technology. Just like we make technology out of physical materials, their technology is made out of immaterial reality and their soul has been or can be shaped at will to meet a technological use or purpose.

    About the force(s) used in telekinesis - ST does have some sort of force usage. Security forcefields like in the Brig, or tractor beams are the forces that you'd need - showing that somehow, Federation scientists have done the physics and the engineering for them. Then you need either the mental ability to generate them, or possibly the noncorporeals exist only partially in our dimensions. What if they exist partly in higher dimensions, or partially in a parallel universe where the laws of physics are different? Maybe that would account for their abilities, and their lack of physical bodies.

    One probably noncorporeal species which may have been missed (I was a bit distracted whilst watching) is the species which sought revenge on Q when he was made mortal. They appeared to be some kind of group mind which manifested as a lightning storm in space (take that, Star Trek reboot!).

After causing war in Tkon Empire, he was defeated and his body destroyed by the combined efforts of Q2, the female Q, and Quinn only his head remained, and that was subsequently sealed away by the Q Continuum at the center of the galaxy.

    The reason that Star Trek and other shows feature noncorporial entities so much is that they are cheap to create antagonists in the story. You hire an actor to play an Orgonian (put him in non-regular closes from the company's costume storage) or have Troi be possessed by the entity. You can also make them capabiel of doing anything you really want them to.
    That being said, they can be useful for story telling. The Organians and Q presented a useful story about the humans who aren't as smart and sophisticated as they think they are.
    The show runners or studio should hire someone whose job is to say no to the use of noncorporial aliens unless the idea satisfies extremely high standards. This person would have to sign off on their usage--like a second signature needed on a requisition form for a big expenditure at a business.

    I'd add the Calamarain ("Deja Q") and the Medusans ("Is There Truth No Beauty?") to this as well!
    Note that there are also a number of examples in Star Trek of humans that decided to become beings of pure energy, including Will Decker (Star Trek: The Motion Picture), Captain Picard ("Lonely Among Us"), Rukiya M'Benga ("The Elysian Kingdom"), and Lieutenant O'Connor ("Moist Vessel"), among others. While in these cases the conversion was helped along by a different entity (V'Ger, two trapped energy beings, and a koala), it is likely that in the 23rd to 32nd centuries people might have known that this was happening to some extent, but weren't motivated to beam themselves out into space just to become pure energy.

    One thing comes to mind with the Q. The Q always appears in some corporeal form. It's as if they have not fully adapted to not having bodies. This could mean they are relatively new to being non-corporeal existence. This could explain their (from our point of view) immature actions.

    Thank you Orange River! That was superb! I am endlessly amazed by your overall knowledge of The Star Trek Universe. I've been a fan of the original series since about 1968. But YOUR expertise of the entire franchise easily eclipses mine. Keep up the good work!

    IMO, the correct term isn't 'non-corporeal' since they can physically interact with matter and energy. The accurate term would be 'metacorporeal'.
    Further, the implication is that 'corporeal' isn't a state but a range on a spectrum, with some of these species placing closer to base corporeal form and others placing farther from it.
    Further still: This implies that various comic superheroes fall into the 'metacorporeal' zone; Dr. Manhattan is an obvious example, but even Superman displays effects only achievable by (probably subconsciously) manipulating matter and energy.

    The "soul" in trek being a separate thing that can be transferred, kept in some vessel, and so on might hint at the answer - you said that the force would have to be thousands of times weaker then gravity itself - so perhaps it is the "soul" that is the weak force that is used by more advanced races after understanding how to harness it for power. However some did it in a way that they still require power - food basically - like the things in Time's Arrow. They are not quite at the level of noncorporeal - but seem to be on the path towards that if left unchecked. So when Q says that humans could be like the Q or perhaps, even stronger then the Q - he might be hinting at a path humans are on - using the Vulcans ability to harness the soul, the knowledge that Sisko has from interacting with the Prophets, the knowledge of the Borg - and all the other species that humans have encountered - at some point someone (or several people) put all this together to enter the next phase of evolution for humanity as a whole - stepping towards what Q is like, but retaining the best qualities of humanity - will lead to something greater still.

    In Lower Decks Mariner casually stuffs a non-corporeal in a container. Extorts a fancy Tricorder out of it nearly killing it. Oh yes a crewman evolved to a higher state of being... And it hurts! He saw the universe on the back of a Koala as he ascended. Boimler almost died drowning and he saw the Koala. Makes you wonder what Kirk saw when he died saying.. Oh My@

    Some hypothetical models show that nucleic acids could generate weak radio waves by spinning free electrons around closed loops. Combine enough of those and you could make a phased array antenna capable of RF beamforming. We definitely know migratory species like sea turtles and birds use magnetoception for geolocation. Combine these things and you could do “telepathy” the same way fMRI machines can. Telekinesis would be harder in real life. In Star Trek, just say the 5th force is subspace :P

    The only way I can understand telekinesis to be real is by manipulating the electromagnetic potential of our aura to interact with objects/others around us. It doesn’t seem to beyond the realm of possibility, especially considering you can actually rearrange the equations for gravity to reproduce Maxwells equations for electromagnetism. The electromagnetic potential of a region of space determines the nature of gravity in that given area, therefore if one was to amplify there Orick field to a greater potential they could have telekinesis/telekinetic’s.

    I'm always amused that people get stuck on thinking of the soul as being something physical, when it could be something like a psychological organ. Something like the Windows operating system.
    How much does a soul weigh? How much does Windows 10 weigh? That doesn't really have an answer, right? Windows 10, and any other program, is simply an arrangement of atoms, or electrons, or whatever is being used to store the information. We have no way of running a computer program without the computer, but we've come up with a lot of imaginative ways of running a computer program on stuff we don't normally think of as being a computer. If our consciousness is like a computer program, and we could find a way to store and run it on something that has no apparent physical form, such as being stored in extra dimensions, then we could have our non-corporeal beings.
