Why DOn't Away Teams Use Portable Force Fields? | Mr. Know-It-All

In the Star Trek universe, portable force fields or shields are sometimes used by away teams, but they are not always effective in preventing injury or death. Shields can be drained quickly by weapons fire, leaving the away team vulnerable, and force fields can sometimes be bypassed or disrupted by advanced technology. Additionally, some missions require the away team to interact with the environment or other species in a way that would be hindered by the use of force fields or shields. Despite the risks, Starfleet officers are trained to handle dangerous situations and rely on their training, experience, and teamwork to complete their missions safely.
