Written by Robert Sabaroff.
TV's most famous sci-fi series starring William Shatner as Captain Kirk, Leonard Nimoy as Mr Spock.

The usually imperturbable Mr Spock is shaken to learn from his instruments that the USS Intrepid, with 400 fellow Vulcans aboard, has died but this is as nothing to the later news that the whole solar system has perished. Incredibly, on the screen looms a fantastic creature 1,000 miles across, setting the vengeful Spock on a suicide course from which he is not expected to return.
