In this Trekking Through Compliance episode, we consider Tomorrow is Yesterday, aired on January 26, 1967, Star Date 3113.2.
The USS Enterprise is thrown back in time to Earth during the 1960s by the effects of a high-gravity “black star.” Enterprise ends up in Earth’s upper atmosphere, is picked up as a UFO on military radar, and photographed by a USAF jet. Fearing the pilot could disrupt the timeline if returned to Earth, Kirk at first decides that the pilot must stay with the Enterprise. After learning of the existence of film taken off the Enterprise by Christopher’s wing cameras, Kirk and Sulu beam down to the airbase to recover the film and any other evidence of their visit.
After they return to the ship, Spock and Chief Engineer Scott inform Kirk of a possible escape method: slingshotting around the Sun to break away and return to their time. Kirk okays the maneuver, and time on board slows down. The Enterprise then successfully returns to the 23rd century.
