Episode Summary
 
[x] Remove Ad
Stardate: 43125.8 Wesley loses a couple of the nanites that he was studying, which then multiply and evolve, finally reaching a collective intelligence. When they start feeding off of Enterprise’s computer chips, several systems failures begin to occur, and this delays a very important scientific mission. The visiting scientist, there to oversee this important scientific mission, then tries to destroy the nanities, to save his once in a life time spatial observation. Now the crew must fight the nanites attempts to take over the ship, and their attempts to seek revenge on the visiting scientist.

Episode Notes
 
Log Entries:
*Captain's Log, Stardate 43125.8. We have entered a spectacular binary star system in the Kavis Alpha sector on a most critical mission of astrophysical research. Our eminent guest, Dr. Paul Stubbs, will attempt to study the decay of neutronium expelled at relativistic speeds from a massive stellar explosion which will occur here in a matter of hours.
*Captain's Log, supplemental. Our computer core has clearly been tampered with and yet there is no sign of a breach of security on board. We have engines back and will attempt to complete our mission. But without a reliable computer, Dr. Stubbs' experiment is in serious jeopardy.
*Captain's Log, supplemental. Dr. Stubbs has used his influence to have planet Kavis Alpha IV designated the new home of the nanite civilization. Commander Data's neural network has been vacated. He has been returned to us unharmed and, with the help of the nanites, our computer core has been reconstructed in time for the experiment.
