Geology [ ]

Planet X had a desolate, mountainous surface and a breathable atmosphere . Its terrain strongly resembled that of Mercury , but without volcanoes . Chaotica installed his Fortress of Doom atop one of its mountains, accessible via caverns . ( VOY episode : " Bride of Chaotica! ")

Some surface regions were forested . ( VOY - Star Trek: Explorer short story : " Kill Captain Proton! ")

It was a class M planet . ( ST reference : The Star Trek Encyclopedia , 4th edition)

History [ ]

Chaotica captured a large number of Earth spaceships . Captain Proton surmised that this fleet could be used to defend Planet X while Chaotica concentrated on building a death ray to menace Earth. ( VOY novella : The Adventures of Captain Proton, Chapter Two: Death of the Patrol )

After the death ray became fully operational, Proton and ace reporter Buster Kincaid visited Planet X to rescue their secretary Constance Goodheart , who had been kidnapped by Chaotica as an enticement for Queen Arachnia to meet him.

When simulated on USS Voyager 's holodeck in 2375 , Planet X was experienced as a real place by visiting photonic aliens . Chaotica considered them to be invaders from what he called the fifth dimension, and killed several of them with his death ray. ( VOY episode : " Bride of Chaotica! ")

Chaotica kidnapped Goodheart again on Mars , and escaped with a mind control ray . Proton and Kincaid quickly returned to Planet X. Because a lightning shield defended the Fortress of Doom, Proton landed his rocket ship some distance away from the facility. Chaotica had improved cave defenses, this time having them guarded by Lizard People . ( VOY - Star Trek: Explorer short story : " Kill Captain Proton! ")

Tom Paris , who enjoyed recreating Captain Proton stories on the holodeck aboard Voyager , said in 2377 that he no longer participated in the pastime, which included rescuing slave girls on Planet X, after his marriage to B'Elanna Torres . ( VOY episode : " Body and Soul ")

Appendices [ ]

Background [ ].

  • The name "Planet X" may be an homage to the world fought over by Duck Dodgers and Marvin the Martian in the 1953 Warner Brothers cartoon Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century . It may also be a reference to the 10th planet of the Sol system .
  • "Planet X" exists in the lore of many 20th century serialized science fiction adventure series. Buck Rogers visited Planet X in two comic strips : 1930 's "Fish Men of Planet X" and 1943 's "The Monkeymen of Planet X". Flash Gordon explored Planet X in Episode 24 of the 1954 Flash Gordon TV series. The Space Patrol crew faced "The Mystery of Planet X" and "The Trap on Planet X" in two 1953 episodes. Even the pulp book series Tom Swift had a connection, in Tom Swift and The Visitor from Planet X .

Planet X by Michael Jan Friedman

Star Trek: Next Generation & X-Men: Planet X.

On the planet Xhaldia, ordinary men and women are mutating into bizarre creatures with extraordinary powers. But is this a momentous evolutionary leap or an unparalleled catastrophe? The very fabric of Xhaldian society is threatened as fear and prejudice divide the transformed from their own kin.

Dispatched to cope with the growing crisis, Captain Picard and the crew of the Starship Enterprise receive some unexpected visitors from another reality – in the form of the group of mutant heroes known as the uncanny X-Men. Storm, leader of the X-Men, offers their help in resolving a situation that is agonizingly similar to the human/mutant conflicts of their own time and space.

But when hostile aliens appear in orbit around Xhaldia to try and abduct the transformed for use as a superpowered force in an attack on the Federation, even the combined forces of the crew of Starfleet and the X-Men may be unable to prevent an inferno of death and destruction.

Starfleet's finest crew and Earth's greatest mutant heroes will need all their powers and abilities to save the Xhaldian people and stop a deadly threat to the Federation.

Dr. Femus (female) and Spinlock (male), employees of X.S. Tech and natives of Planet X.

Planet X was the homeworld of an unnamed and enterprising alien race conducting trade with a paralell universe version of Earth . The planet was the headquarters of the X.S. Tech corporation under the leadership of Chairman L.C. Clench . Representatives of Chairman Clench's species were first encountered by a stranded away team from the USS Voyager .

According to observations made by the Voyager away team members Planet X appeared to be a rather capitalistic society. The X.S. Tech corporation appeared to be an influential force in their society. It was believed, but never proven, that the pursuit of profit drove the inhabitants of Planet X to the stars.

The inhabitants of Planet X were green skinned and hairless humanoids hypothesized descended from a repto-mammalian ancestor according to William Telfer .

Their level of technology was assessed to be equal to the United Federation of Planets in most respects and more advanced in others. In the areas of robotics and cybernetics, Planet X was superior to the UFP creating such artificial constructs as Bishop , the android surgeon who treated an injured Celes Tal , the XMD-1 surgical robot, and the Simulated Intelligence Robotic or S.I.R. technology demonstration robot.

In the area of transporter technology the inhabitants of Planet X were on the verge of testing an interplanetary teleportation device, the demonstration of which the Voyager away team would witness. ( Star Trek: Voyager - Dark Realm )

How Star Trek Took the X-Men to Space

We're looking back on three crossovers that changed both teams for the better.

Picard and xAVIER

StarTrek.com // 20th Century FOX

You wouldn’t know it by watching the movies, but the X-Men are indeed a spacefaring superhero team. In their 50+ year history, Marvel Comics' Merry Band of Mutants has encountered space pirates, intergalactic empires, and many invaders from beyond. In fact, the Dark Phoenix Saga , an X-Men story so famous that it has been adapted into two separate movies (2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand , and 2019’s Dark Phoenix , starring Next Generation guest-star alum Famke Janssen, and Game of Thrones ’ Sophie Turner, respectively), takes place largely in outer space, at least in the comics.

That said, one can forgive the movies’ tendency to reduce space battles to street fights, as the latter more obviously align with the X-Men’s core ethos. Inspired by Professor Charles Xavier, the X-Men fight to create a world where mutants can live peacefully with humans.

That’s an Earth-focused goal, to be sure, but it's one that science fiction in general — and Star Trek in particular — has been exploring through a cosmic lens. So its unsurprising that some of the most potent visions of the X-Men’s goal happen when they crossover into the Trek universe.

The X-Men and Enterprise crews have met on three different occasions; twice in single-issue comic book stories and once in a prose novel. Their adventures featured the Next Generation crew twice, and once featured characters from The Original Series . The stories feature all of the fan nods one would expect from such meetings: Beast and Bones both answering to Nurse Chapel’s call for Dr. Henry McCoy, the Borg assimilating the infamous mutant-hunting Sentinels, and respectful flirtations between Picard and Storm.

X-Men Comic Panel

StarTrek.com

But more importantly, the stories emphasize the importance of the X-Men concept by enfolding it into Star Trek ’s galactic explorations.

Published in 1996 and written by Scott Lobdell with a host of artists, Star Trek / X-Men finds the X-Men boarding the U.S.S. Enterprise after pursing the evil energy being Proteus across dimensions. Proteus entered the Trek universe to bond with the body of Lt. Commander Gary Mitchell, a Starfleet officer who was compromised by his psychic powers until Kirk used deadly force to stop him, in the season-one episode “Where No Man Has Gone Before.”

Second Contact Cover

Marvel Comics / Paramount

As its name suggests, 1998’s Star Trek: The Next Generation / X-Men: Second Contact, written by Dan Abnett and Ian Edginton and illustrated by Cary Nord and Scott Koblish, takes place minutes after the film Star Trek: First Contact . Traveling through time from the 24th century, the Enterprise is redirected by Avengers villain Kang the Conquerer, who seeks control over new time streams by creating anomalies such as mutant James Proudstar serving on Deep Space 9 , and Tasha Yar hunted by Sentinels in the Days of Future Past timeline. With the aid of Wesley Crusher and the Traveler, the two teams repel Kang and correct the anomalies.

Written by Michael Jan Friedman, the 1998 novel Planet X picks up immediately after Second Contact , with the X-Men launched into the TNG universe instead of their proper timeline. La Forge’s attempts to send the mutants home get delayed when the Enterprise is dispatched the planet Xhaldia, where its own mutant population is being oppressed by a fearful government.

X-Men Comic Panel

To certain degrees, each of these stories involve the X-Men being encouraged by the United Federation’s very existence. That element is least pronounced in TOS adventure X-Men/Star Trek . Although a mental link between Jean Grey, Kirk, and Mitchell/Proteus leads to deliberation between the two about the Captain’s decision to kill Mitchell, there’s little room for nuance among the crossover fun. Instead of debating the morality of allowing a dangerous creature to live, the comic would rather show us Spock using the nerve pinch on Wolverine or Scotty supplementing the warp drive with Bishop’s energy displacement abilities. The story does close with Cyclops expressing admiration for Starfleet and Spock teasing Bones about humans exceeding genetics, but they feel like hasty closing buttons.

Second Contact is also interested in pairing characters over ideas, but the adventures here necessarily involve both series’ core beliefs. When Picard and Troi join Colossus and Nightcrawler to free mutants from Sentinel-enforced concentration camps, or when Wolverine and Storm team with Data and Worf against Borg assimilation, they’re asserting their difference over homogeny.

X-Men Panel

Marvel / StarTrek.com

Planet X contains just as many adventure plot points as its predecessors, complete with the Enterprise engaging in combat with an alien battleship, Colossus and Data interceding in an uprising of the transformed youths of Xhaldia, and plenty of scraps in the holodeck for Wolverine and Worf.

But the novel’s longer structure allows for deeper meditations on the nature of mutation and fear. When mutants (called “the Transformed”) begin manifesting on Xhaldia, the local government knowingly violates the young people’s rights by gathering them in internment camps. The Xhaldian’s decision violates Starfleet directives, and the Enterprise is ordered to intercede, but Picard feels too often tempted to assert order rather than protect the dignity of the oppressed Transformed.

Friedman plays out this conflict in miniature in a conversation between Storm and Picard, after the latter expresses frustration with Archangel’s insistence on flying recklessly through the Enterprise halls. Unlike their world, in which mutants must constantly struggle for acceptance, Storm and her fellow mutants experience a mix of hope and disbelief in the Federation’s reality. Storm notices with amazement, "prejudice and race-hatred seem to have been eliminated,” and that people do not shun mutants, but have “done everything in their power to embrace us.” So overwhelming is this reality, Storm explains, that Archangel keeps pushing the envelope because he cannot allow himself to believe it.

Planet X Book Cover

Pocket Books

As the X-Men fight to protect the mutant youths from the Xhaldian oppressors, while also upholding Federation regulations to broker peace for everyone on the planet, they see a continuing need for teams like their own. But they’re refreshed in their fight with the knowledge that Starfleet exists, that people like Picard and Counselor Troi exist, and that there’s a future where dignity is extended to all, no matter how different.

This aspect is the greatest appeal of these crossovers. While the mashup and team-up novelty is admittedly fun for fans, the real revelation is how Trek expands the X-Men ’s central conceit into cosmic sci-fi. At their core, X-Men stories are about the fight for acceptance with difference; the demand for affirmation and dignity for all people is made issue after issue using the language of superhero tropes. By teleporting those ideas into the future and watching them play out on alien planets like Xhaldia, these crossovers remind readers that differences between lifeforms are a universal constant. Like so many Star Trek stories, these event issues and novel give us hope that such goals won’t seem lofty and alien, but will be matters of fact. Combining the best traits of power fantasy and speculative fiction, X-Men / Star Trek crossovers encourage us to look to the stars, even as we continue the struggle in the here and now.
