Captain’s Log, Stardate 41254.7: The U.S.S. Enterprise is en route to Cygnus IV—the edge of the known galaxy. There, we will rendezvous with the ship’s new first officer and the other command personnel, and proceed with our mission: discover the truth about Farpoint Station, a starbase facility built by the inhabitants of Cygnus IV, a starbase of unparalleled size and complexity…and infinite mystery.

And the success or failure of this, our first mission together, may well determine the course of human exploration across the galaxy for centuries to come…
