Star Trek: Voyager, Season 6, Episode 12, "Blink of an Eye"

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode “Blink of an Eye," Voyager appears in the sky of a planet that evolves at an incredibly accelerated rate. Epochs pass, and the "sky ship" takes on spiritual and social meaning to the inhabitants below. As their technology evolves, will they remain curious or turn Voyager into an enemy? Mission Log examines "Blink of an Eye."
