Relics

The Enterprise discovers a Dyson Sphere and are even more surprised when they find a transport ship, the USS Jenolan, crashed on the surface. They beam over to investigate and find someone still inside the transporter pattern buffer. They rematerialise him and it turns out to be "Scotty". The Enterprise conducts scans of the Sphere and Geordi and Scotty go to the Jenolan to try to get the computers working. The Enterprise discovers a communications antenna and a hatch, but when they try to hail the antenna, they are pulled inside by an automatic piloting beam. The tractor beam interferes with the ships power systems and overloads most of them and they only just manage to put themselves in orbit of the star using maneouvering thrusters. They discover the star is very active which is why the sphere is uninhabited. Scotty and Geordi get the engines on the Jenolan back up and running and use it to hold the hatch open so the Enterprise can escape. Scotty is given one of the Enterprise's shuttlecraft and he leaves to explore the galaxy.

  • When Scotty and Geordi are beamed from the Jenolan to the Enterprise, the Jenolan's shields are still up to hold the space door open.
  • It was impossible to use the original old bridge of the old Enterprise. The captainschair and the consoles were build by a Star Trek fan and the rest had to be re-constructed.
