Julia Ecklar
 A vital colony, needed to support the eventual expansion of the Federation, is suffering problems. The home planet is ravaged by natural disasters. Alien threats endanger the lives of everyone due to greed for the mineral rights. As the Enterprise patrols the system, Uhura, Sulu and Chekov find that the colonists have outright decided they don't want the help of Starfleet anymore.
