"Star Trek: Voyager", the first Trek spin-off to be made without any input at all from Gene Roddenberry, made its debut in 1995 and quickly established itself both as markedly different from cosmic cousin Deep Space Nine and as the successor to The Next Generation. Despite a lack of originality in its premise (Lost in Space anyone?), Voyager was nonetheless often a bigger ratings success than any of its predecessors. It is 2371... In this year, the temporal flux phenomenon known as the Nexus will pass through the Veridian system. Unknown to Starfleet, the El-Aurian scientist, Dr Tolian Soran, will attempt to divert the Nexus to pass directly through the planet Veridian III. To do this, he must destroy the Veridian star, killing 230 million people on Veridian IV. With the help of the Klingon sisters L'ursa and B'Etor, Soran has the ability to do this. However, the USS Enterprise-D, commanded by Captain Jean-Luc Picard, will intercept Soran during a distress call. When Soran escapes, the Enterprise-D will pursue him to the Veridian system, where Jean-Luc Picard will meet a Starfleet legend long since thought dead. Also in this year, at the very edge of Federation space, the power of the Dominion, enforced by the dread forces of the Jem'Hadar, continues to show its dominance as every advance by Alpha Quadrant forces is comprehensively rebuffed. At the forefront of the struggle against the Dominion, the crew of the space station Deep Space 9 have immediate issues: Quark has to deal with restoring the greed of the Ferengi Grand Nagus, becoming the head of a Klingon house, persuading his nephew not to join Starfleet, and disciplining his own mother: a female who insists upon making profit and wearing clothes; Jadzia Dax's Trill heritage threatens first her life, then her friendships as one by one the personalities of the past Dax hosts come back to haunt her; Kira Nerys learns that she was once Cardassian, then rejoins her former Resistance Cell leader, taking up arms against her own people; and Benjamin Sisko travels back in time only to assume a role which means he must intentionally cause the deaths of hundreds of innocent humans. While Starfleet officers deal with short-term problems, and Cardassian and Romulan hawks unsuccessfully take a direct approach to conflict, the forces of the Dominion are quietly following a strategy that could alter forever the balance of power in the galaxy.
