A Test Vessel Gone Missing

To test this new design, Captain Picard takes the Enterprise crew aboard the experimental craft. But when a surprise attack forces the saucer to go rogue — crashing on a hostile planet — survival becomes the top priority. Stranded and under fire, the crew must protect advanced technology from falling into the wrong hands.
