"Commander Sisko, Jadzia–Dax, and Doctor Julian Bashir are summoned by Star Fleet to examine material recovered from an intercepted block of space-debris. This turns out to be the remains of the Defiant and her crew. But from thousands of years in the past. In a race against time, Sisko and his colleagues have to figure out what happened to the Defiant, and stop the event from happening. "
