description: An Awesome Weapon From the Past Returns to Menace a New Generation!Intended to create life from nothingness, the Genesis Device had the potential to become a weapon of awe-inspiring destructiveness, capable of rearranging matter and life energy on a planetary scale. After the cataclysmic explosion of the Genesis Planet -- and the Klingon Empire's attempt to steal the top-secret technology -- Starfleet wisely decided to destroy all data for Project Genesis. A century later, all that remains of Genesis is the knowledge stored in the mind of missing, elderly scientist, Dr. Carol Marcus. The Starship Enterprise, commanded by Captain Jean-Luc Picard, encounters a wave of mysterious energy that threatens billions in the galaxy. As it sweeps across the Alpha Quadrant -- transforming entire planets on a molecullar level and thereatening entire civilizations with extinction -- Picard and crew form an uneasy alliance with both the Klingons and the Romulan Empire, both of whom may crave the forbidden secrets of the Genesis technology for themselves. But even if the Genesis Wave can be defeated, Picard and his potentially treacherous allies must still confront the greater mystery of what unknown intelligence dared to launch the wave against an unsuspecting galaxy -- and for what malevolent purpose...
