Shout! Studios拿下《星际迷航》纪录片《What We Left Behind: Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine》的全球版权，计划在年底推出，包括院线上映在内的多个平台发行。
影片将深度回顾《星际迷航》中最受误解的系列《深空九号》，1993年该剧作为《星际旅行：下一代》的衍生剧首播时，许多《星际迷航》的忠实粉丝认为，这部剧藐视了创作者吉恩·罗登贝瑞对星际探索时代人类高贵而团结的未来的宏大愿景。《深空九号》最终赢得了粉丝的喜爱，在七季的176集里，聚焦一个充满阴谋、绝望、外交、政治和暴利的空间站。
纪录片由《深空九号》运作人Ira Steven Behr和David Zappone(《情系斯波克》)执导，包含对《深空九号》卡司和剧组人员的新采访。

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – Behind the Scenes was a fifty minute documentary hosted by Terry Farrell that looked at the creation of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, specifically its pilot episode "Emissary". Written by Stephen R. Wolcott and directed by Donald R. Beck, the documentary first aired on 4 January 1993 as a syndicated special of the by Paramount Television produced current media affairs show Entertainment Tonight, at the time the franchise's primary publicity outlet for anything live-action Star Trek related. In the documentary, Farrell (Jadzia Dax) takes the viewer on a tour around the Deep Space 9 sets. The feature also has interviews with the cast, producers, writers and other production staff members and takes a look at the making of "Emissary".

This special is hosted by Patrick Stewart and traced the history of Star Trek from its inception with "The Cage" through to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and the first season of Star Trek: The Next Generation. It also showed brief previews of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier and TNG's second season. Also it was principally a container for the premiere of a full color print of "The Cage" which had, according to the special, recently been recovered from Paramount's studio archives.
