Yeh, its a joke.  Expanding on the Star Trek lingo, Voyager is the name 
of the new ST series duce to come out next month to replace TNG.

Brief outline: A new class of star ship is supposed to be sent to put 
down some Maquee (Is that how its spelled,) resistance.  It seems they 
got their hands on a star ship.  So they're in that gassious part of the 
Cardasian border (Remember for DS 9,) and there is some kind of warp 
explosion that throws them hundreds of light years across the universe.  
With the new star ship damaged, they have to join forces in order to make 
it home.  The whole series is about that journey.

Another little note of interest.  First a white male captain, then a bald 
man, then a black man, and now a woman.  Yeh, that's right....the new 
captain in Voyager will be a woman.
