There are miles of transport tubes under the skin of every starship. It is the Science Officer’s job to keep them in working order. This becomes critical when: • the first Extra-Galactic Emissary gets stuck in a buckled tube, deep in the bowels of USS Skipjack. • Skipjack is caught in a huge herd of space-dragons that could easily crush the ship. • a MAX might barrel through the tubes, rip out the buckled section, and blow everyone aboard to Kingdom Come. • When armed pirates invade the ship, determined to kidnap the Emissary from the Federation. • And when standing off the port bow is an unknown, immensely powerful alien armada. Simply silently, waiting. The emissary is dying, Marik. Get it out before it dies. No pressure.
