[edit] Plot outline
The U.S.S. Enterprise is taking its first commander, Commodore Robert April, and his wife, Sarah, to a diplomatic conference on the planet Babel, when it encounters a ship flying at fantastic speeds directly into a super nova.
The Enterprise attempts to assist by grabbing the vessel with a tractor beam and locking onto it, but instead both ships are pulled through the super nova and into a negative universe where time flows backwards. The pilot of the alien ship agrees to help them get back, but the crew is rapidly aging in reverse, and may soon become too young to be able to operate the ship.

[edit] Notes
With the release of the Animated Series DVD release, Paramount studio appears to have changed its stance on the series, and is now calling the animated series as part of established canon, including within the pack-in booklet, and dvd extras, and Startrek.com.[1][2][3]
This was the final episode of the animated series. The program continued to run repeats of the older broadcasts on Saturday mornings until 1975.
