Synopsis

On its way to deliver medical supplies to plague-ridden Makus III, the U.S.S. Enterprise passes Murasaki 312. Since they are under Starfleet orders to inspect galactic phenomena such as this quasar-like star group, Spock, McCoy, Scott and four specialists take the shuttlecraft Galileo for a closer look. Unexpectedly, the Galileo is pulled off course and crashes on the planet Taurus II in the center of the Murasake phenomenon. Between attacks by the giant, hostile inhabitants and quarrels among themselves, the crew attempts to repair the shuttle and get off the planet.

Notes

With a rank of [Lt.] Commander and many years in Starfleet, it seems odd that this is Spock's first command mission, which he handles poorly until the end.
