Enterprise investigates a distress call from an ancient ship situated in an asteroid field.
This is an enjoyable episode with some massively detailed sci-fi and strong character moments.
The plot is good fun and involves a 'nerdgasm' (literally) for Geordie LaForge as he has to get Enterprise out of a difficult situation using his engineering skills and work with a beautiful holographic projection of Enterprise designer Dr Leah Brahms. I find this to be a good concept, with implausibly high stakes.
Geordie carries the episode well and the character retains a lot of likability following a large amount of screen time. Picard also has some cool moments, particularly towards the end.
I enjoyed the visuals, particularly on board the Promellian cruiser and the flight through the asteroid field.
Patrick Stewart is as great as ever, LeVar Burton has a decent showing and Caryn Johnson cameos well as Guinan.
