The episode's score and the unusual camera positions and movements (often filming from the ceiling) add perfectly to the overall mood.

I'm very lucky, my sisters boyfriend has about 85% of the episodes on divx which he was kind enough to load to me on 60 something CD-R's (350MB per TNG episode) and a few DVD-R's.
I'm going to be buying the missing episodes on DVD and will eventually buy every season on TNG on DVD as time passes (as I want to keep these divx's forever and I don't believe in keeping something I don't own legitimately).

 Distant Origin
The Voth in this episode are supposedly descended from hadrosaurs (the duck-billed dinosaurs.) I thought that was funny because according to fossilized remains, hadrosaurs were about as smart as cows.
In the TNG episode "The Chase", it was established that some long-dead race seeded several worlds with genetic material which eventually gave rise to humans (on Earth) as well as Vulcans/Romulans, Klingons, Cardassians, and so on.
Someday, I'd love to see an episode where Janeway and crew encounter a race of beings for whom they can find no origin--and discover it is because they were literally created from nothingness, leaving them to wonder whether or not science holds all the keys to their small existence.

Culture: Janeway parrots the standard anti-military doctrine of the TNG era in which they claim (against all reason) that Starfleet is not a military organization.
This seems rather odd in light of the TNG episode "The Outcast", in which a mere 10 megajoules is said to be enough for a multi-person transport.
Transporters have become far more efficient by the time of TNG (remember that this is a flashback to Janeway's youth).
