Subnucleonic radiation is a form of radiation.

  • It causes severe burns to a person's skin, as well as disorientation in most lifeforms.
  • Prolonged exposure usually results in death.


While almost nothing can be done to prevent this radiation from affecting the body, being held in stasis while navigating through this radiation will prevent the effects.


Fun Fact:

In 2374, the crew of the USS Voyager discovered a nebula that emitted subnucleonic radiation, soon discovering its effects.
The only person not fully affected by the radiation was Seven of Nine, due to her Borg-enhanced anatomy.

  • However, over time, it did affect her sensory nodes, causing hallucinations.
