Adding in the Popping and Locking that were in vogue in the late 2390s, this leads to the theory that around the say, 2410, you'll get someone who comes back from pilgrimage with:

"I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm gonna set it straight, this Watergate
I can't stand rocking when I'm in here
'Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear

So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this fucking thorn in my side
Oh my God, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all, it's a sabotage"

That, or it's a signal to the fleet to destroy the ship. ;-)
