...as a matter of fact, my favorite space explosion of all
time, in any media, is the Klingon ship exploding in 
"Day of the Dove."

  It's perfect, no music in the background, the beams leap out
of the Enterprise, hit the Klingon ship, there is a bright flash
with peices of debris, then nothing as the explosion disipates.
And, through it all: blessed silence.

  Who said science was dead?
