In 2265, the Starship Enterprise's starboard impulse pack was severely damaged due to an encounter with the galactic barrier. Gary Mitchell, who had gained incredible psychic powers due to his exposure to the barrier, informed Lieutenant Lee Kelso of the damaged points on the pack, and warned him that, if they tried to activate the pack in the state that it was in, they would blow out the entire impulse deck.

- Impulse packs are small cylindrical devices that are plugged into a starship's impulse engines, and are insulated with lead points. The impulse packs have to be regularly checked because if a lead point has decayed, it could knock out the entire impulse engine.

| - Impulse packs are small cylindrical devices that are plugged into a starship's impulse engines, and are insulated with lead points. The impulse packs have to be regularly checked because if a lead point has decayed, it could knock out the entire impulse engine. Following the USS Enterprise's encounter with the galactic barrier in the year 2265, Lieutenant Lee Kelso checked the ship's impulse packs and failed to locate one with decayed points. When Kelso visited Gary Mitchell in the Enterprise sickbay, Mitchell used his growing god-like abilities to pluck an image of the decayed point from Kelso's mind, and informed him of what he'd missed.

(TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before" ) In the first draft of the script, these components were instead described as "mesonic terminator leads" and "terminals". When physically shown, the script notes (first and final draft) described the prop as a "terminator connection".
