Star Trek: Odyssey is a new Star Trek fan production from Hidden Frontier Productions, the creators of Star Trek: Hidden Frontier. Set after the end of Hidden Frontier, Odyssey follows the USS Odyssey as it struggles to get home from a dangerous mission that has taken it and her crew 2.5 million light years from home... to the unknowns of the Andromeda Galaxy. This is the first Star Trek series, fan-produced or otherwise, to take place outside of our own Earth's galaxy (the Milky Way Galaxy).
The pilot for Odyssey, entitled "Iliad", was put to wide release on Saturday, September 22, 2007 and is now freely available on the official website.

Background Information
According to the creator of Hidden Frontier and Odyssey, Rob Caves, Odyssey will be primarily centered around Lieutenant Commander Ro Nevin (Brandon McConnell) in a loose retelling of Homer's classic story of The Odyssey, set in the 24th century universe of Star Trek.
Ro was involved in numerous episodes of the Star Trek: Hidden Frontier series and was in the first gay plotlines during the second season of Hidden Frontier. Caves has said that although Ro is an openly gay character, the new series "will focus instead on new aspects of his evolving persona that have not been explored yet in Hidden Frontier".
Recasting Ro Nevin
Executive Producer Rob Caves announced in October 2007 that Brandon McConnell would be taking over the role of Ro Nevin. McConnell debuted as Ro Nevin in episode 2 of Odyssey, "The Wine Dark Sea". "Meet the New Ro Nevin"
This is the second time that the character has been recast. The character was played by actor Arthur (Paris) Bosserman in Star Trek: Hidden Frontier Seasons 2 - 5, and by actor Bobby Rice in Seasons 5 - 7 (as well as in the pilot episode of Star Trek: Odyssey).
Notable Appearances
Filming of the second episode of Odyssey, "The Wine Dark Sea", was covered by GMTV in August 2007, with presenter Ross King taking a guest role in the episode as a medical Ensign.
