Welcome to Project Longshot!
It's been nearly 40 years since the horrific events of the 250th Frontier Day and the worlds of the United Federation of Planets are still struggling to recover. The Core Worlds have grown in peace and prosperity, but on the Frontier every day has been a continued struggle to survive ever since that devastating day. Starfleet, the Federation's humanitarian and peacekeeping armada, has been spread thin trying to keep up with the needs of the galaxy, but the dream of exploration has been cast aside.
All of that's about to change.
Following the devastating events of the Battle of the Foundry, Starfleet Command has commissioned Project Longshot to reignite Starfleet's exploratory heart. Now, Starfleet's newest generation of explorers are coming together to boldly go where none have gone before...

Posted on Fri Jun 13th, 2025 @ 11:33pm by Commodore Wilkan Targaryen in General News
In the days prior to the Dominion War the crew of the Starship Defiant encountered the unthinkable: a mysterious world populated by their own descendants! Known as Gaia, the planet was colonized after the Defiant accidently traveled 200 years in the past and crashed into the surface due to an anomaly surrounding the planet. Learning about their children's children, the intrepid crew of the Defiant decided to fulfil their destiny and travel back in time to ensure the colony's survival. Heading toward their fate, the Defiant suddenly veered off course and narrowly escaped due to the intervention of Constable Odo. While the Constable's actions saved the love of his life, he chose to eradicate an entire world to do it.
Decades later, Starfleet has returned to the Gamma Quadrant and on the forefront of exploration is the Starship Enterprise. Temporarily transferred to the Federation's Department of Temporal Investigations, the Enterprise's crew have been asked to return to Gaia to learn more about the mysterious phenomenon that threatened the Defiant. One of the only ships that can successfully travel through the barrier, upon arriving the crew are shocked to find the Defiant stuck within the quantum energy barrier. A lifeboat holding the last survivors of a civilization lost to time, the Enterprise crew must decide whether saving the survivors is worth the risk that it will cause to the timeline.

Mission 2: Tosk
History has been made in the far reaches of the final frontier.
The Dominion, long time enemies of the United Federation of Planets, have proposed an alliance between their two governments after years of separation. As part of their agreement, Starfleet, the peacekeeping and humanitarian armada of the Federation, has been invited to return to the Gamma Quadrant on a mission of discovery. Eager to seek out new worlds and civilizations, Starfleet assigned Project Longshot to this mission of peaceful exploration.
But their mission may be over before it even begins.
While at Starbase 419 for final crew pickup and resupply before traveling to the Gamma Quadrant, the Starship Enterprise has encountered a blast from Starfleet's past: Tosk, an enigmatic alien that has been bred as the perfect prey in an intergalactic hunt. Seeking asylum, the crew of the Enterprise must decide if Tosk's requests for aid are genuine and worth the risk of alienating their new friends, or part of a large scheme designed to end the hunt once and for all.
