Starship Valiant created by Michael L. King is a web series made at Starbase Studios, inspired by the classic original series created by Gene Roddenberry. The show is set after the 3rd season of Star Trek and follows the exploits of the Federation Starship USS Valiant NCC-1707, a Constitution-Class ship captained by Jackson K. Bishop, a stellar man at the helm but riddled with personal challenges. His second in command is Leeza S. Kennedy, an officer who excels in all that she does.
The missions of the Valiant are not those of direct exploration, she is more of a “police-ship,” in that she goes where she is needed and most of time this means hostile territory. Their goal has been to create a series that focusses on the human condition: human beings at their best but not always triumphant in their missions, with personality clashes and deeply developed characters that people can relate to.

Our records show it was 15:50 when released but it's current length is 12:50. Still in production, Part 1 has been released as a "special preview." Release date and length will be updated as further parts are released. IMDB states, "Starship Valiant: The Ties That Bind will answer many questions raised by the previous film; such as why the USS Valiant was attacked to begin with and just how she survived her encounter with enemy forces. Furthermore, fans will see resolution with Bishop and his daughter as well as the race responsible for the turmoil."
