Set nearly 150 years after the destruction of Romulus, and the "death" of Spock. It's based in part on some of the elements of Star Trek Online and the Bryan Singer pitched-pilot, and unused stories or ideas from the entire franchise. On the anniversary of it's founding, the series finds the Federation on the decline while new threats arise from the across the quadrants (and even from other galaxies). In the year 2459, a Romulan refugee does the unthinkable, arriving on Earth and asking to be given the chance to join Star Fleet.
