In another Back-Trekking retrospective, Fatheree, Taylor, and Aaron take on one of VOYAGER’s most fascinating and high-concept episodes, "Blink of an Eye" (Season 6, Episode 12). When the USS Voyager becomes trapped in orbit around a planet with accelerated time, the crew watches as an entire civilization evolves in mere hours. From its unique storytelling structure to its thought-provoking exploration of time dilation, cultural development, and the Prime Directive, this episode remains a fan-favorite. Join us as we explore the scientific and philosophical questions it raises while sharing our own thoughts on what makes it stand out among STAR TREK’s best.


As always, available in both video and audio-only formats.
