NST: TNG - First Contact - Season 4, Episode 15
First Contact! Wow, that got philosophical real fast! The episode itself is pretty great, a first contact episode from the perspective of other aliens meeting the Federation. But what started as a usual episode recap turned into discussions about political power, proof of aliens, religion, the Cold War, even random mathematical concepts like fast Fourier transforms!
