==Plot==
The ''Enterprise'' under the command of Captain Spock, has a surprise inspection by it's former leader Admiral James T. Kirk. Upon beginning on a two-week cadet cruise for training, the mission quickly becomes a deadly serious one when Kirk's nemesis Khan Noonien Singh--infamous conqueror from late 20th century Earth--appears after years of exile caused by Kirk's decision to exile him and his people. Khan later revealed that the planet Ceti Alpha VI exploded, and shifted the orbit of the fifth planet that laid them to waste-ground. Moreover Admiral Kirk never bothered to check on the progress of Khan and his people. With the assistance of the Enterprise crew, Admiral Kirk must stop the vengeance of old nemesis, Khan Noonien Singh, from using the life-generating Genesis Device he steals as the ultimate weapon.
