This episode sees the USS Enterprise encounter a thought to be mythical world known as Aldea which has baffled space travelers and historians for centuries. The Aldeans are an interesting race, a little too human like for my taste, but are an advanced race without children. When the children of the Enterprise are stolen from the ship Picard and company work frenetically to get them back. The concept of this episode was interesting as it is the Aldean's technology of cloaking the planet that has made them sterile and the pollution of our own Earth has damaged our own ozone layer, an intentional echo I'm sure, similar to the message delivered in Star Trek IV The Voyage Home. The Aldeans plan is eventually thwarted by Picard and an equitable solution is reached and the Federation will help the Aldeans recover from the radiation damage. A good episode from a varied first season
