USS Enterprise-D Backup Power Systems
Data punches commands into the bridge console to engage these reserve systems as main power collapses during the Borg ambush. They surge online amid phaser fire and drone materialization, restoring partial functionality to lights, sensors, and critical controls. Worf blasts a drone, Picard barks evasive orders, Riker scans threats, and the security officer crumples—yet the backups hold, dim glow steadying the chaos.
