First Contact between Humans and the visitors from Vulcan.

...or... was it?

Turns out in 1957, the initial contact we never knew about occurred in Pennsylvania when a Vulcan ship crash landed in the woods outside a small town in the eastern United States.

This week, we'll take a look at Carbon Creek from Star Trek: Enterprise's second season. T'Pol's second foremother was part of a group of Vulcans stranded in a Pennsylvania mining town in 1957. We'll see how they assimilated into life in a small town filled with lots of humans.

We'll discuss what makes this episode so great and why we love it.
