During this brief window, the people of Xondaii undertake a massive interplanetary operation: mineral ore is ferried from the mining operation while supplies, crew replacements, and so on are transported from the planet. Also, communications with the mining colony on the planetoid are possible only when the rift is open. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScience vessel U.S.S. \u003ci\u003eRobert Ballard\u003c\/i\u003e is severely damaged during its mission to the system, and the U.S.S. \u003ci\u003eEnterprise\u003c\/i\u003e is dispatched to investigate and render assistance. But Kirk, Spock, and Sulu also collect the data about the rift, and the evidence they’ve gathered regarding its artificial nature is compelling.
