[edit] Aeroponics?
Before I move it, correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't this article be aeroponics? (dictionary link, WPs still down) – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pd THOR (talk • contribs) .
- 'Airponics' is the term used in the series. Therefore, that is what it goes under. The fact that the 'correct' term for the process is aeroponics should be a background note on this page. No move should be made. -- Michael Warren | Talk 17:13, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- What proof do we have that it is "airponics"? I've heard it mentioned on multiple episodes and I've always heard "aeroponics". Do we have visual confirmation of the use of the term "Airponics" - was it on a visible plaque or marker of some sort? Do we have a script or screenplay from which this can be determined? Or is this disagreement based on opinion alone? – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.145.82.117 (talk).
- Okay. It was called "airponics" in: "Oasis", "Elogium", "Cold Fire", "Deadlock", "Tuvix", "Basics, Part I", "Warlord", "Drone", "Once Upon a Time", "Someone to Watch Over Me", "Riddles", "Memorial", "Fury", "Imperfection", "Body and Soul", "The Void" and "Human Error". It was called "airoponics" in...no episode. So I suggest we leave it like it is. ;-) --Jörg 22:22, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- The above references are more or less still required to complete this article. --Alan 10:53, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inaccurate
It's interesting how this article claims: "Is the cultivation of plants without soil, by suspending them in an oxygen-rich environment and misting their roots with nutrient solution." (which is almost directly copied from the wikipedia article "aeroponics", when plants are clearly seen being grow in soil (or similar nutrient) in the airponics bay shown in VOY: "Fury". --Alan 21:59, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
