Summary:
The USS Nighthawk has set course to the nearest Starbase.  All attempts to communicate with the aliens have not been successful.  They soon realize that Captain Ofaj has more telepathic powers and envelop the ship with it, affecting the crew every passing moment.  Past thought of the Station getting destroyed fills the crews mind and makes Lieutenant Spencer and Ensign Patton to turn hostile on the bridge.  Lieutenant Jackson, who was on the bridge, bore the brunt of the hostility.  He managed to escape and locked down the bridge and escape to the lower decks.  Ensign Patton somehow beamed off the bridge and tracked Jackson down and they began to tear up the corridors.  None of them were hurt except the Captain’s Quarters were trashed.  

The Captain meanwhile in the cargobay stresses his sympathy to Captain Ofaj on the destruction of the Station and to his crew.  He was overwhelmed with the deep emotion from Ofaj.  He was able to see the last moments Ofaj had with his family before the tragedy.  The sadness poured from Captain Ofaj and into Captain Anderson.  

In the end the visions were gone and the crew remembered the last couple hours of the destruction of the station.  It will be etched into the crew’s lives forever

Time Frame
Not quite sure what it is.
