In 1996 Voyager arrived over Earth through a temporal rift and fought Henry Starling, who planned to take the timeship Aeon into the 29th century.
Voyager reached Earth through a temporal rift and hid in orbit, but astronomer Rain Robinson at the Griffith Observatory detected the ship. Janeway, Chakotay, Tuvok and Tom Paris went to Los Angeles to trace the stolen future technology, and the Doctor gained a 29th-century mobile emitter during the struggle.
Starling launched the Aeon in an attempt to travel to the future, a journey that would have devastated the Solar System. Voyager destroyed the timeship with Starling aboard, and another Braxton then returned the starship to the Delta Quadrant.
