Sci-fi action adventure sequel featuring the crew of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), once assimilated by the alien Borg, now senses that they are about to return. He is proved correct when the Collective engage the USS Enterprise-E in battle, only to escape through a temporal vortex into the Earths past. Picard and his crew glimpse an alternative Earth which is dominated by the Borg and, in an attempt to find out how the Borg have altered the timeline, follow them back to the year 2063, one day before Zefram Cochrane (James Cromwell) made the first warp drive journey. It was this event that attracted the attention of some passing Vulcans and established Earths first contact with alien life. While Riker (Jonathan Frakes) leads an away team to prevent the Borg from tampering with the Earths history, Picard must repel a Borg invasion of the Enterprise.
