Stardate 38896.89: The Excelsior-class starship USS Potemkin is en route to the Turkana star system; diverted from their previous mission by the distress call of a civilian freighter.

United Trek Spotlight: Star Trek: Gibraltar

For those of you who aren't already aware, Star Trek: Full Speed Ahead is a part of a larger group called United Trek, where nine other authors contribute to this shared universe.  As you may grow to like Full Speed Ahead, we wanted to take some time to showcase one of the other series within the group.

Episode Three is now available!

We here at Full Speed Ahead are pleased to announce the third installment of the first season, "Damn the Torpedoes! Part III," is now available online for our readers. In this episode, we wrap up the pilot plot of the Farragut and her wayward journey across the expanse of the Milky Way into the deepest part of the Beta Quadrant. Now firmly embroiled within the conflict between the Kasui Resistance and the Tristnor Hegemony, Captain Leone and Commander Elannis do their part in taking a Tristnor facility and not only retrieving their means of getting home, but also upsetting the balance of power in that sector of space traumatically.

Full Speed Ahead into United Trek

The logo of United TrekWe here at Star Trek: Full Speed Ahead are very pleased to announced that we have joined the incredible shared universe of United Trek. This will have no impact on storytelling or the episodes we've planned so far, but it does provide us with a wider playing field to have FSA characters make special guest appearances in other United Trek series, such as Sam Redfeather's Star Trek: Gibraltar. We'd like to encourage our readers to visit UT's home page and read the other incredible stories available there to see how the future may impact the Full Speed Ahead with so many events that are available to the writing staff beyond the reach of our planned seven seasons.
