The Borg, a relentless race of cyborgs, are on a direct course for Earth. Violating orders to stay away from the battle, Captain Picard and the crew of the newly-commissioned USS Enterprise E pursue the Borg back in time to prevent the invaders from changing Federation history and assimilating the galaxy.
A cold, mechanical dread permeates every frame as a relentless hive mind threatens to erase human history. This frantic race through time trades calm diplomacy for heavy combat and desperate survival.
