This site is NOT a chronology - it is a viewing guide that will assist you through watching the entire franchise in in-universe story order, all the way from the 21st to the 43rd centuries, while making adjustments as needed to ensure an enjoyable viewing experience. It is not rigid - some episodes are shifted in the order to keep things as clear and fun as possible. The guide is updated regularly to stay current with new episodes.
Like Phase II was intended to do, and Discovery does again a few decades later, Star Trek Voyager is launched as the centerpiece of a new network: the short-lived UPN, home of Shasta McNasty and The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfieffer. Note that Voyager episode orders, particularly in season two, jump around a bit due to some production weirdness.

Joining the guide
First aired January 16, 1995
Voyager S1 · E1–2
While on a short-term mission to track an infiltrated Maquis cell, Capt. Kathryn Janeway and her newly launched U.S.S. Voyager crew -- and the Maquis fighter crew -- are drawn 70,000 lightyears to the far side of the Delta Quadrant by an alien seeking survival.
Voyager is ALMOST able to be watched in airdate order, but there are a few spots where production was out of wack in the 2nd season, so I rearrange those to be in the intended air dates. (Some of Season Two’s episodes were actually filmed as Season One eps and held over for… some reason.)
Deep Space Nine S3 · E8
Jadzia falls in love with a Meridian scientist. The catch is that his planet and his race shift between this universe and a plane of pure energy.

Feature film
Picard’s only hope for a future rests within the Nexus...and a legendary captain from the past.
Star Trek: Generations has an opening sequence that takes place in 2293 before jumping ahead to 2371. I don’t like the idea of expecting people to watch part of a movie and then save the rest for god knows how much later, but as there IS a clearly marked divider in this film, I decided to mention that if someone DID want to watch the opening sequence here, but not continue on, that can be a fun thing to do. Really though, it’s probably easiest just to watch it all at once in 2371, where I have placed it based on theatrical release date.
