I just read a Star Trek novel passage where the Romulans are attempting to board the ship and someone makes the Enterprise change course suddenly in the middle of transport (only the glow of the incoming beam is visible) such that the Romulans end up beaming into space.
PNQ: Comments? Issues? Reference materials state that a Federation transporter cycle takes about five seconds, and we can assume that the transporter computer can deal with known speeds and courses at both ends ("we have matched velocity for transport") so the factors are known. But what would happen in this case?
