Star Trek Voyager

The fourth and newest STAR TREK series, which hit U.S. airwaves in January 1995, is the first to feature a female captain -- Kathryn Janeway. Set aboard the starship U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656, the ship and crew were marooned over 70,000 light years from Federation space and are struggling to find a way home. The U.S.S. Voyager was carried beyond the explored limits of space while in pursuit of a rebel Maquis vessel, and out of necessity, the two stranded ships combined into a mismatched crew of Starfleet officers and Maquis rebels.

The main crew members of the U.S.S. Voyager are: Captain Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), Vulcan Starfleet Tactical/Security Officer Tuvok (Tim Russ), a Holographic Doctor (Robert Picardo), and the former rebel leader as Janeway's First Officer Chakotay (Robert Beltran). A native of this region of space takes on the roles of guide/cook/handyman, Neelix (Ethan Philips), originally with his Ocampa companion Kes (Jennifer Lien) alongside. During the series' fourth season, as Kes shed her physical body while outgrowing her telepathic powers, a de-assimilated Borg drone dubbed Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) became a reluctant member of the crew. A half Klingon ex-rebel serves as Chief Engineer, B'Elanna Torres (Roxann Biggs-Dawson), and Ops / Communications Officer Harry Kim (Garrett Wang) is a recent Academy graduate. The ship's pilot is field-commissioned Ensign Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill).
