Artistic License – Physics? Whilst the star is still a massive body, presumably the ending of nuclear fusion of mass within the star would cause some sort of collapse or redistribution of mass within the star, and might this not produce some sort of gravitational wave effect which I presume is what the "shock wave" referred to in the film is implying? Does anyone have any better idea than me what might happen in this scenario?

- It could also have been the fact that the Enterprise B wasn't fully equipped to handle anything. This was its shakedown cruise, and everything important wasn't going to be installed until Tuesday. Harriman didn't get really flustered until he found out that all the options he knew were unavailable to him because the ship wasn't ready to help out. At which point he asked Kirk to help him.

- Even earlier for Picard. When he has the e-mail sent to the holodeck, you can see his face change. Troi's reaction shows the information hit like the proverbial ton of bricks.
