    On 'Star Trek: Voyager' why are they continually worried about the doctor's program getting erased, lost or destroyed in any number of episodes? Since he's a holographic program, why don't they just create copies of him?

    		Unlike most computer programs, the Doctor's program was never copied or backed up. Voyager has a limited memory capacity; the Doctor's entire program uses 50 million gigaquads ("Lifesigns"). This limitation was also mentioned in "The Swarm." However, "Living Witness" depicts a future in which a backup copy does exist.
