The U.S.S. Excelsior, fourth starship to bear the name, is on a two-year mission of exploration on the far side of the galaxy. Some would call this an honor for Commander Alcar Dovan and his young crew, especially coming so soon after the tragic death of Captain Cortez and so many veteran officers at Valandria.

Certainly that’s what Admiral Parker’s telling the press. Those with a more cynical mindset — such as, oh, I don’t know, Captain Dovan himself — would call it exile, a coverup designed to keep the Excelsior out of the public eye after their shocking, top-secret discovery of a terrifying threat to the entire galaxy.

But, as the dedication plaque says, “Wherever you go, there you are,” and the Excelsior crew have thrown themselves into their frontier expedition with zest. Since passing through the ancient Iconian Gateway that sent them to this distant region of space, they have had less and less contact with Starfleet Command, and seen sights they could have never imagined. But why is this area so full of Iconian ruins? And why, after a quarter of a million years, are so many of them starting to show signs of life?

Starship Excelsior is a full-cast, full-production, fan-made audio drama in the tradition of Big Finish and Darker Projects. In our early years, we released 40-minute episodes every three months or so. More recently, we have released 80-minute episodes every five months or so. While some (excellent) Trek fan productions aim to exactly preserve Star Trek as it was in 1966, and others try to remake Star Trek into an entirely different (much darker) show, Excelsior simply aims to tell the very best, cutting-edge science fiction stories we can. We aren’t afraid to modernize our format, tell big stories, play with the “canon,” and break taboos. We have a track record that demonstrates our critical approach to modern Trek. However, in the end, it all comes back to Gene Roddenberry’s bold vision of the future: like him, our aim is simply to take Star Trek — and our listeners — where we have never gone before.
