I know that when sparks fly in my house, it's pretty damned exciting

INTERCOM: Captain, you are needed on the bridge. The ship is under attack.
Captain: (groans) Give me 20 minutes. I'll roll out of bed, take a shower and be there soon.
The captain casually rolls over, rubs his eyes, and lets out a heavy sigh
Captain: Thank god for shields.

Spoiler:A man lies still in his bed, fast asleep. Beside him, the clock reads 2:09 am. Suddenly, two brilliant flashes of lights strike the ship. The room lurches under the man, and sparks eject from the door panel
INTERCOM: Captain! We're under attack!
Another flash of light, another lurch. This time, a low growl can be heard from several decks below.
Captain: (Jumps out of bed) Damage report!
INTERCOM: We just lost deck 47C, hull breach!
Captain: Seal off the affected areas, I'm on my way to the bridge!
Three more blasts contact the ship. Inside, various panels overload and erupt sparks. Panels over head, along with the interior lights, burst into flame. A siren sounds.

Originally posted by morbosfist View PostIf you have a starship, it must shower sparks when attacked. It's practically an industry standard.

Perhaps shields cant stop the whole blast wave or force - or whatever sciencey word is needed here - from passing through to the ship. The impacts on the shields overload something. Or perhaps we have no clue as to how to build an intergalactic spaceship and so dont know how there wired or why there wired that way.
I cant see why folks need an explanation for that, but Warp/Hyperdrives, energy shields, wormhole machines, the fact our tech seems to be able to intergrate perfectly fine with tech far beyond anything the guys at Sony or Dell could comprehend but crashes when you want to watch videos on youtube, 2 galaxy's full of English speakers (Mostly American English at that), Precognition, The fact that super advanced aliens who leave their crap everywhere forgot to leave much here, even though they seem to have spent a hell of a long time here, Going back and forth in time, coming back from the dead....a lot, Teleportation, Psychic stones and so on.
Spoilered for confusing science.

Well, if that is the case, I still don't understand why nothing happens when they're travelling through a star and the turbulence is high.SyFy: "Are you SGU fans done asking for a third season?"

Actualy, after some consideration, there is a good reason for sparks flying.
Destiny is old and definetly showing it's age. Therefore, the insulation around a lot of the wires is frayed, cracked, etc. Under normal operations, the shields don't pull much power, and the current stays in the wire. But when under fire, it draws a lot more current, which overcomes the resistance of the air and current starts jumping from the wires to the (grounded) walls-hence a lot of sparks.
