Memory Beta, non-canon Star Trek Wiki

A friendly reminder regarding spoilers! At present the expanded Trek universe is in a period of major upheaval with the continuations of Discovery and Prodigy, the advent of new eras in gaming with the Star Trek Adventures RPG, Star Trek: Infinite and Star Trek Online, as well as other post-57th Anniversary publications such as the ongoing IDW Star Trek comic and spin-off Star Trek: Defiant. Therefore, please be courteous to other users who may not be aware of current developments by using the {{spoiler}}, {{spoilers}} OR {{majorspoiler}} tags when adding new information from sources less than six months old (even if it is minor info). Also, please do not include details in the summary bar when editing pages and do not anticipate making additions relating to sources not yet in release. THANK YOU

Revision as of 03:23, 19 January 2019

For other uses, see Kobayashi.

Kirk and his crew face certain death... while journeying deep into their own pasts!

Description

A freak shuttlecraft accident—and suddenly Captain Kirk and most of his senior officers find themselves adrift in space, with no hope of rescue, no hope of repairing their craft, or restoring communications—with nothing, in short, but time on their hands.
Time enough for each to tell the story of the Kobayashi Maru - the Starfleet Academy test given to command cadets. Nominally a tactical exercise, the Kobayashi Maru is in fact a test of character revealed in the choices each man makes - and does not make.
Discover how Starfleet Cadets Kirk, Chekov, Scotty, and Sulu each faced the Kobayashi Maru...and became Starfleet officers.

Background

On the cover of the book, the USS Tritium is shown, having been modeled based on a painting by Rick Sternbach originally created for the TOS reference: Spaceflight Chronology. Which ship it might represent from the story is unclear, although it seems implied that the Tritium image might represent the SS Kobayashi Maru herself.
