In 2378, Spock suggested that they create a Type IV civilization category after witnessing the Vehicle and believed that its technological capabilities exceeded that of the lower level categories. It was theorized that such a civilization was capable of harnessing as well as manipulating the power along with the energy of the universe itself. (TNG novel: Forever Dark)
