Star Trek’s New Doomsday Device Continues a Trend Almost Every Fan Hates

In the late 33rd century, the pirate Nus Braka has launched a major attack against the Federation. He’s managed to turn a modified version of the Omega molecule – called Omega 47 – into powerful mines. These mines are strategically placed to cut off Federation space from the rest of the galaxy. If a Federation starship gets too close, the mines explode, making it impossible to travel through subspace in that area. However, Braka didn’t actually invent Omega 47 himself.
