Episode 73: The Lights of Zeta. The starship Enterprise finds itself in conflict with an insubstantial enemy in this episode from the third season of the 1960s science fiction television series. The Enterprise is on a mission to deliver crew member Lt. Mira Romaine to a new post on Memory Alpha, a planet that serves as the central location of the Federation's massive, computerized library. Along the way, however, they encounter an unusual, glowing cloud of energy which attacks the ship, causing mysterious damage to the Enterprise's computers and several crew members. The Enterprise is still recovering when the cloud surrounds Memory Alpha, threatening the planet's inhabitants and libraries. The ship seems helpless to act, until the strange behavior of Lt. Romaine leads Dr. McCoy to suspect that she has developed some sort of mental connection with the energy cloud -- which may in fact be a living being. It is up to Captain Kirk to discover a way to exploit this link and find a way to protect the Enterprise from further attacks. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
Episode 74: The Cloud Minders. The Enterprise becomes involved in an important mining planet's class struggle in this installment of the enduringly popular science fiction series. Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock visit the planet Ardana, on a routine mission to collect a shipment of an element known as zenite, when they are unexpectedly ambushed by several of the planet's miners, known as Troglytes. This attack awakens the Enterprise crew to the divided nature of Ardana's society, where the Troglytes toil and suffer in the zenite mines while the wealthy literally live in the clouds, making their home in a lavish floating city. When he discovers that the exploitation of the Troglytes is threatening their health and lives, an angered Kirk chooses to disrupt the planet's social order -- but will his interference create a more equal society, or anarchy? ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide
