Star Trek: Enterprise

Correction: That's not really a mistake. Starfleet EVA suits are custom fitted to each crew member and would go with them from duty station to duty station. Considering Colombia is the newest NX class in the fleet, Trip would be extremely busy as the chief engineer getting all her bugs out. He would eventually have changed the patch but it wasn't in his top list of things to do.

In a Mirror, Darkly (1) - S4-E18

Corrected entry: The U.S.S. Defiant hull number NCC-1764 is incorrect; NCC-1764 is the hull number for the U.S.S. Galina - Heavy Cruiser Class, as listed in the Star Fleet Technical Manual.

Correction: The starfleet technical manual is not canonical. Also, as the entire series is revealed to be a holodeck simulation this could be a programming error.

Only the final episode is a simulation. Riker didn't spend 4 years in the holodeck.

Correction: A quick Google search shows that the USS Defiant has the registry of NCC-1764, as shown in both the Enterprise episodes and the Original Series episode The Tholian Web, where the ship was originally featured.

In a Mirror, Darkly (1) - S4-E18

Corrected entry: At the end of the opening credits for this episode and its sequel, Earth is shown rotating from west to east, the opposite direction as in real-life, likely to highlight the differences in the mirror universe.

Correction: Since they have never shown the sun rising in the mirror universe, the Earth just might rotate west to east. The phenomenom is called retrograde rotation. Venus spins west to east for example.

Zero Hour - S3-E24

Character mistake: Previous episodes have established this story arc to be occurring in the year 2154. Yet here, when T'Pol records her log, she cites the date as 2152. (00:32:00)

Answer: Warp factor has always been inconsistent and hard to pinpoint, or there's too many episodes that contradict the conversion rates. Changes were made in converting warp factor into actual speed between TOS and TNG. It seems ENT reverted back to using TOS method, which is "warp factor cubed" equals how many times the speed of light they traveled. So warp 4.5 means 91.125 times the speed of light (c). Although in "Broken Bow", with the travels from Earth to Neptune and back in about six minutes means warp 4.5 is about 86*c. However, in "The Expanse" episode, warp 5 was 200*c (instead of 125). 1 ly at 91.125*c is about 4 days, but 100 ly would be 400 days.
