In the year 2375, Martin Slovan, a young man from the 21st century, finds himself commanding the USS West Covina, a Starfleet vessel packed with the Federation's most unconventional officers. After being discovered in cryostasis and fast-tracked through Starfleet Academy, Slovan leads a crew that includes an anti-social former Borg helmsman, a rebellious Klingon science officer, a clone of a despised ensign, and an irritable chief engineer. Between surviving hostile alien encounters, unruly holodeck simulations, and navigating the complexities of 24th-century technology, Slovan struggles to adapt to a future where even star dates are baffling. But amid the chaos, Starfleet's rules, and his own evolving leadership, the line between duty and absurdity is never entirely clear.
