description: There's more to Starfleet than exploring strange new worlds. When serious technical know-how is required Starfleet sends in an S.C.E. team such as the one stationed aboard the U.S.S. da Vinci. This topflight assemblage of engineers and technical specialists is a mixture of extraordinarily talented humans and exotic aliens including P8 Blue an insectlike alien who specializes in analyzing structural systems and a single unpaired Bynar unique among his species. Under the command of Captain David Gold the crew of the da Vinci takes on the down-and-dirty hands-on jobs that only they can handle. HARD CRASHAn alien starship of unknown origin has crashed into a planet inhabited by a large and populous civilization. Accompanied by Geordi La Forge temporarily on loan from the Starship Enterprise the S.C.E. investigates the mysterious vessel only to discover that the ship was not nearly as damaged as it first seemed. Now the berserk ship which seems to possess its own life and intelligence is on a rampage across the surface of the planet and Captain Gold and his crew face the awesome challenge of trying to stop a starship gone insane!
