![]() ![]() Voyager was the first Star Trek series to feature a female captain, Kathryn Janeway ( Kate Mulgrew), as the lead character. The complex relationship between Starfleet and ex-Federation colonists known as the Maquis was one such element and a persistent central theme. Berman, Piller, and Taylor devised the series to chronologically overlap with Deep Space Nine and to maintain thematic continuity with elements that had been introduced in The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. They wanted it to help launch UPN, their newly established network. Paramount Pictures commissioned the series following the termination of Star Trek: The Next Generation to accompany the ongoing Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Set in the 24th century, when Earth is part of a United Federation of Planets, it follows the adventures of the Starfleet vessel USS Voyager as it attempts to return home to the Alpha Quadrant after being stranded in the Delta Quadrant on the far side of the Milky Way galaxy. The fifth series in the Star Trek franchise, it is the fourth after Star Trek: The Original Series. It originally aired from January 16, 1995, to May 23, 2001, on UPN, lasting for 172 episodes over seven seasons. Star Trek: Voyager is an American science fiction television series created by Rick Berman, Michael Piller, and Jeri Taylor. ![]()
