| - In Dr. Marcus' proposal to the Federation, she concluded that the potential of the project was to reduce the cosmic problem of food supply. With the device, Dr. Marcus filled the cave with a "lifetime" of food. When she showed Admiral James T. Kirk the cave, she said, "Can I cook, or can't I?" The kinds of life created in the cave were indeed substantial; in addition to the plainly visible vegetation, which provided a breathable atmosphere, there were vegetables and fruits. Also, the chirping of birds could be heard in the cave. The cave was connected to a supply area with polished floors. When visited by Admiral Kirk, there were cargo containers from Bellus 4 and Kosygin Base in that portion of the cave. The hard-edged environment contrasted sharply with the cave proper. From the storage area, one could pass through a passageway to a scenic overlook of the cave. The overlook opened onto a cliff, where water fell from above. A distance away from the overlook, one could see a body of standing water, which was lit from an unseen source. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
