Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Starship Mine" airs 1993


Another favorite episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation of mine, Starship Mine, aired March 27, 1993.  Many fans thought it should have been named Die Hard, Picard.  I thought it should have been titled Indiana Picard and the Enteprise of Doom.

The Enterprise is docked at space station for a routine sweep to remove accumulated baryon particles, which can be dangerous.  The process for removing baryon particles requires anything with living tissue must be removed.

Picard soon realizes that terrorists are aboard and confronts them with the lethal baryon sweep is approaching. 

Tim Russ, who played Tuvok on Star Trek: Voyager, and Patricia Tallman, who played Lyta Alexander on Babylon 5, both appeared in guest roles.
