The final return to where the journey truly began.
Star Trek: Enterprise 5 revives the pioneering spirit of Starfleet’s earliest days, bringing Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula) and the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NX-01 back into the spotlight for one last, long-awaited chapter. Set in the formative years of humanity’s expansion into the stars, the series dives deeper into the fragile, dangerous, exhilarating era that shaped the future of the Federation.
Taking place shortly after the events of the original series finale, the new season follows Archer as he faces a galaxy in transition. The Romulan threat looms larger than ever, Vulcan politics grow increasingly unstable, and Starfleet struggles to keep pace with the rapidly evolving demands of deep-space diplomacy and defense. The NX-01 becomes a symbol of hope — and a target.
T’Pol (Jolene Blalock), caught between her Vulcan heritage and her loyalty to Archer’s crew, confronts rising tensions within the Vulcan High Command as a radical sect seeks to undermine the fragile alliances humanity is building. Her journey forces her to examine the future of Vulcan’s relationship with Earth — and her own future on the Enterprise.
Dr. Phlox (John Billingsley) faces a crisis that reaches across species lines when a mysterious biological anomaly threatens entire systems. His compassion, curiosity, and unshakable optimism become essential as Starfleet takes its first steps toward establishing universal medical protocols that will one day define the Federation.
Meanwhile, the echoes of past missions return as Archer finds himself pulled into delicate negotiations with the Andorians, Tellarites, Vulcans, and Denobulans — alliances that, if successful, will form the bedrock of the United Federation of Planets. But shadow operations and political sabotage hint that not everyone wants peace to prevail.
Across twelve cinematic episodes, Enterprise 5 explores:
- The volatile early days of the Earth-Romulan conflict, including first encounters with Romulan drone fleets and their terrifying telepresence technology.
- The roots of the Federation Charter, as Archer becomes an unwilling architect of the political future.
- Bold new worlds, untouched sectors, and unknown civilizations — the frontier in its wildest, rawest form.
- The emotional, personal journeys of a crew who helped humanity discover its identity among the stars.
With sweeping space battles, tense diplomatic standoffs, character-driven storytelling, and the return of the NX-01 in all her early-Starfleet glory, Star Trek: Enterprise 5 is both a tribute and a triumphant continuation — honoring the crew who took humanity’s first bold step into the galaxy, long before the legendary captains who would follow.
