This TNG story brings us a development that we may not like to think about, our
sun going supernova and obliterating us and all the things about us good or bad.
Who will let whatever space explorers of the future know about earth and it's culture?
A planet facing such a problem from a star expanding and then going supernova sent up a probe that the Enterprise finds that sends a beam aimed at Captain Picard which knocks him unconscious.
For the rest of the episode Patrick Stewart plays an unconscious Picard and also a man named Kamen , a citizen of this deceased world. He grows old and wise in the Kamen portrayal given the advances his planet didn't make because they just weren't ready.
The mind dwells on the possibilities of countless such worlds whose civilizations didn't outrun nature herself.
One of the best TNG episodes.
