The Last Starship Embarks on a New Story Arc Today

Star Trek: The Last Starship #7

The Starship Omega has been witness to some of the most drastic changes to the Federation in its entire history: the aftermath of the galactic cataclysm known as "The Burn" has left the people of the Federation desperate, alone, and wary of outsiders. So much so that many members have turned their back on the alliance and instead signed up with The Emerald Chain, with promises of dilithium without the oversight of the Federation. This month, the mission to hold the fragile remains of the Federation together continues.

Official synopsis:

A brand-new arc starts now!

The crew of the U.S.S. Omega are desperately trying to hold the Federation’s vision of a united Galaxy together, but they’re failing. The spirit of cooperation is dead, but Starfleet’s mission might not be, thanks to a research station on the aptly named Deep Space Hope. There, one last shining ray of possibility remains in an ever-darkening universe. A way to put everything back in its rightful place…if only Sato and his crew are bold enough to seize it.

Publisher's description:

A thrilling new adventure based on the acclaimed TV series Star Trek: Picard!

2401: Just weeks after defeating a devastating joint attack by rogue Changelings and remnants of the Borg Collective, Starfleet and the Federation face a long period of recovery that requires replacing lost personnel and ships. While touring the U.S.S. Titan-A, which is just beginning an extensive repair-and-refit process that will take nearly a year to complete, newly promoted Captain Seven of Nine and her first officer, Commander Raffi Musiker, experience a bizarre temporal event which renders them both unconscious and sends Seven into a deep coma.

In the aftermath of this inexplicable attack, Admirals Jean-Luc Picard and Beverly Crusher are surprised by the appearance of Crusher’s son, Wesley. Now a Traveler capable of traversing through all of space and time, he warns them that forces he cannot identify are working to disrupt time for unknown and potentially catastrophic reasons. Reality as they know it is in jeopardy and, despite their initial best efforts, the effects are not contained but instead continue to escalate.

Picard, Crusher, and Musiker join Wesley in hunting through time to stop whoever or whatever seems hellbent on rewriting history. But what is their unknown adversary’s ultimate objective? Left unchecked, their efforts might well erase from existence those Picard and his friends hold most dear. What could justify attempting to defy fate itself?

Caleb, Genesis, Jay-Den, Kyle, and Tarima are all students of Starfleet Academy, the illustrious school responsible for the Federation's best.

But today, their mission is simply to execute a survey simulation on a lifeless, low-oxygen planet. Or at least, it seems simple... until a huge storm cuts off their contact with their teachers aboard the Athena... and something impossible appears: an alien. Now, they'll have to work together and use everything they've learned in class about first contact to make it off the planet alive!
