Episodes
Season one follows the Snowdon from her first day at the edge of the Expanse to its highest, most dangerous point. Each episode stands on its own, and together they tell one story.
- Base Camp
On her first day at the edge of the Shackleton Expanse, the USS Snowdon answers a distress call from a mining colony being torn apart by subspace shear. The cause is closer to home than anyone expects.
- Pack Ice
Chasing the trader who sold the colony its salvage, the Snowdon is frozen solid in a field of crystallised subspace. Grell and Nandakumar have to fly a runabout through a closing maze of ice to find a way out.
- The Outpost
A colony whose people were once moved off their world by treaty refuses to leave a moon that is breaking apart. Tey and Achebe disagree on whether to force them, and a Cardassian archaeologist is digging somewhere she shouldn't be.
- Whiteout
The crew start forgetting: first their names, then how to do their jobs. Dr. Lavik races to find the cause as her own memories begin to slip.
- Crevasse
A pre-warp people have guarded something at the bottom of a vast canyon for ten thousand years. The Prime Directive says the Snowdon must stay hidden, but someone has already come down from the sky.
- Belay
A voice from the captain's past calls in an old debt, and Ishara has to face the mission that cost her an arm.
