7.15 the void

Voyager is sucked into a void in space, where it must try to survive with limited resources while being attacked by other ships that are also stuck in the void and need resources. Janeway takes the high road and forms alliances to share technology and resources, while getting help from a telepathic indigenous race that learns to communicate with cool-sounding tone-emitting devices. Not a bad episode, it moves well. The indigenous race is the most intriguing new race seen in a while, and it’s especially nice to introduce a new race that does not communicate in English through the Universal Translator.

Robin Sachs (General Valen) also played Sarris to good effect in ‘Galaxy Quest’.
