I seem to recall an episode of Star Trek: Next gen where they encounter Scotty in an ancient cargo craft trapped in a doorway into the sphere or something like that. Maybe called "Artifacts"?

I liked the coverage in The Independent. It wasn't so much the story. (That was simply, "Hey, we just read this in The Atlantic.") It was because some commentard wag wrote, "It's the GSV So Much For Subtlety."

Edit: Oh and Scott, the episode was called, 'Relics'.
