Summary

In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "Sanctuary," the Skreeans are escaping oppression in the Gamma Quadrant and find themselves at DS9. If only they could settle on Bajor and get back to farming, just like their sacred texts have told them. Bajor isn't ready for that many guests, though, not so soon after the Cardassian occupation. So where can three million immigrants go? And couldn't they all just learn to get along? 

Hosted by John Champion & Ken Ray

Welcome to Mission Log, a Roddenberry Entertainment podcast, where we explore the Star Trek universe one episode at a time. Each week, Mission Log examines a single episode of Star Trek, diving into its ethical subtext, metaphors, and cultural significance. From the show's most iconic moments to its hidden gems, we analyze what makes Star Trek one of the greatest science fiction sagas of all time.

In this Episode of Mission Log we'll...

  • Recap the story and analyze key moments.
  • Discuss the moral dilemmas presented.
  • Debate whether the episode holds up and if the messages are still relevant.
