The Rift!

What lies beyond the rift?

Log entries

 * Captain's log, stardate 45482.6 : It appears that Captain Okona will have to wait a while longer before being reunited with his vessel.

A later issue's letter column addressed a discrepancy from this issue, the character Jenna D'Sora was mistakenly called "D'Soro" and was shown wearing a yellow suit with a white jacket rather than a Starfleet uniform.
