Summary

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, "Rise," what goes up... must keep going until it reaches space. That's the problem facing Tuvok and Neelix when they find themselves stuck on a space elevator. Well, that and the fact that there's a murderer on board. Hosted by John Champion & Norman Lao Welcome to Mission Log, a Roddenberry Entertainment podcast, where we explore the Star Trek universe one episode at a time.
