Captain’s log stardate unknown… We were patrolling the Azure Nebula when we encountered a time warp distortion, we have been thrown clear of the Beta Quadrant some 7,000 light years. The transporter and weapons are out, and we are conducting other minor repairs. An apparently Starfleet shuttle craft has been tossed here with us. Although it reads as a Starfleet craft, it is quite advanced beyond our technology. We are moving in to investigate the shuttle and discover a way home.
