Captain James T Kirk (William Shatner) is back, but the only ones from his crew to return with him are chief engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (James Doohan) and Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig), although Majel Barrett returns as the voice of the Enterprise computer. This is the movie where the crew from the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) (1987-1994) moves into the films. Led by Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), the new Enterprise crew consists of Commander Will Ryker (Jonathan Frakes), Lieutenant Commander Data (Brent Spiner), Lieutenant Commander Geordi LaForge (LeVar Burton), Lieutenant Commander Worf (Michael Dorn), Dr Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), counselor Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis), and bartender Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg).

In the late 23rd century, a mysterious energy ribbon called the Nexus cripples the Enterprise-B, taking Captain Kirk with it. Seventy-eight years later, the Enterprise-D finds itself facing this same energy ribbon, and now it's Captain Picard's turn to deal with it. Unfortunately, El-Aurian scientist Tolian Soran (Malcolm McDowell) who was previously pulled from the Nexus by Kirk and his crew, has been desperately trying to get back into it and will stop at nothing to make it so, even if it means destroying entire star systems. Guinan, who has also been inside the Nexus, thinks that the only one who can help Picard stop Soran is Captain Kirk, who has been living in the Nexus since he was pulled into it all those years ago.

The prologue takes place in the events of the previous film in the year 2293 A.D., while the majority of the film takes place 78 years later in the year 2371 A.D. (seven years after the introduction of Picard's crew in the the first episode, "Encounter at Farpoint" (1987), of Star Trek: The Next Generation).

Trilithium is a fictional compound that works as a nuclear inhibitor able to stop all fusion within a star and cause it to go supernova. Soran stole it from the Romulans, which is why they came looking for it and killed everyone on the observatory. He has made a deal with the treacherous Klingon Duras sisters—Lursa (Barbara March) and B'Etor (Gwynyth Walsh)—to supply them with his research on trilithium in return for their aid in returning him to the Nexus.

Picard convinces Kirk to leave the Nexus and accompany him to Veridian-3 in order to stop Soran from launching the rocket that will blow up their sun and kill the 2.5 million inhabitants on Veridian-4. As the Nexus approaches Veridian-3, Soran runs off with the controller. Picard notices that the control pad is still on the bridgespan, so Kirk agrees to fetch it while Picard goes after the launcher. In order to reach the controller pad, Kirk must make his way out onto the broken bridge. He reaches the pad and makes the rocket visible again, but the bridge breaks, sending him plummeting. On the other hand, Picard makes it to the launcher and lock the missile into place so that, when Soran attempts to fire the rocket, it blows up in place, killing him. As the Nexus passes harmlessly overhead, Picard climbs down to rescue Kirk, but he is dying. "It was fun," Kirk says and closes his eyes in death. Picard buries him under a pile of rocks. Starfleet rescue ships begin arriving to pick up Picard and the survivors of the Enterprise crash. In the final scene, the crew searches through the Enterprise debris. Data comes across Spot and, with the emotion chip still in place, he displays extreme Joy in finding his cat alive. Picard locates his family picture album, which also pleases him, although he tells Ryker that "what we leave behind is not as important as how we lived." They are then beamed onto the Farragut and head back to Earth.

Yes. Star Trek Generations, a novelization of the movie by American science fiction writer J.M. Dillard (pen name for Jeanne Kalogridis), was released in 1994.

So far, there are 13. Star Trek: Generations was preceded by Star Trek (1979) (1979), Star Trek II - L'ira di Khan (1982) (1982), Star Trek III - Alla ricerca di Spock (1984) (1984), Rotta verso la Terra (1986) (1986), Star Trek V - L'ultima frontiera (1989) (1989), and Rotta verso l'ignoto (1991) (1991), all of which feature the Enterprise captained by James T Kirk. It was followed by Primo contatto (1996) (1996), Star Trek - L'insurrezione (1998) (1998), and Star Trek - La nemesi (2002) (2002), all of which feature the Enterprise captained by Jean-Luc Picard. Star Trek (2009) (2009), Into Darkness - Star Trek (2013) (2013) and Star Trek: Beyond (2016) (2016) harken to an alternate reality in which Kirk was just beginning his career with Starfleet Academy.

It might be possible, but it's extremely unlikely. For one thing, there doesn't seem to be any reason why Picard's fantasies would include the Enterprise being destroyed (to say nothing of being destroyed in exactly the same way as in reality, which he didn't witness) and Kirk's death. For another, Picard never leaving the Nexus would mean that the Enterprise crew all died when Veridian III was destroyed, which would make it impossible for Worf to become a regular cast member on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993), or for Troi and Barclay to guest-star on Star Trek: Voyager (1995).
