(Metashow) Temporal Star Ship Vortex

# Temporal Star Ship Vortex

(A metashow on Wonder)

The ongoing voyages of the TSS (Temporal Star Ship Vortex), a starship with a unique temporal drive (powered by a direct connection to The Vortex), allowing it to travel throughout time and space. There's just one catch - due to the nature of temporal travel, the crew and events may not be consistent.

## Episodes:

### Episode 1: Operation '*Equinox*'

In this episode, the TSS Vortex crew arrives at an unexplored alien planet and begins searching for signs of life. However, their efforts are interrupted when they detect the presence of a cloaked ship approaching. Despite their attempts to establish communication, the ship disrupts their coms and hails, demanding that they leave the planet immediately. The captain, realizing the significance of their mission, asserts that they are only here to investigate. However, the ship refuses to back down and launches an attack. As the battle ensues, the crew realizes that the weapons being used by the aliens are causing catastrophic damage to the planet. They must act quickly to prevent its destruction, but their efforts prove to be in vain, as the planet ultimately explodes in a spectacular display of destruction.

### Episode 2: Operation '*Zenith*'

**Part One:** In this episode, the TSS Vortex arrives at a planet that is torn apart by war between two races. The conflict is over the planet's rich mineral resources, and both sides refuse to back down. The captain realizes that brokering a deal between the warring factions is the only way to achieve peace. Meanwhile, the science officer conducts a thorough scan of the planet's history and discovers a figure from its past who was known for their ability to bring peace. They are able to locate and bring the peacemaker aboard the ship to aid in their efforts. The peacemaker is tasked with distracting the citizens of the planet, while the science officer goes down to the surface to reprogram the planet's A.I. mining machines. The success of the mission is vital, as it will allow both sides to benefit from the planet's resources without resorting to violence.

Thinking quickly, Mr. Sulu suggests reversing the polarity of the shields and firing a phased tachyon pulse. The attack works, and the pulse passes through the enemy ship, causing no harm. but causing it to disappear back into the anomaly, as well as closing it. The crew breathes a sigh of relief, and return to their own time and space.
