Traveling across the Delta Quadrant while trying to return to Earth, which they thought was home, the crew experienced such encounters as the N'Kree attempting to conscript Voyager into their battle fleet or the Kmada attempting to sabotage their life support systems with low-frequency theta radiation.Īt some point during their travels, the ship began to utilize an enhanced warp drive, which would allow them to reach Earth in just two years - the original Voyager would still have needed almost six decades to get there on its own. By this time, the crew was able to breathe oxygen and had forgotten that they were copies of the original Voyager crew.

She agreed and Voyager was allowed to leave with a supply of deuterium. Holding Voyager physically hostage on the surface of its homeworld, the Silver Blood copy of Kim negotiated to have Captain Kathryn Janeway give over samples of her crew's DNA so that they could be copied. Upon duplicating the Humans, the Silver Blood became sentient for the first time and quickly hungered for more.

While attempting to sample it after determining it contained deuterium, Tom Paris and Harry Kim came into contact with the substance and were duplicated down to their memories, Starfleet uniforms and combadges. The Silver Blood was encountered by the crew of the USS Voyager in 2374.

Apart from deuterium, the lifeform also contained hydrogen sulfate and dichromates. Its temperature appeared to be only 12 degrees, even though its surroundings were almost five hundred degrees kelvin.

It had organic properties, such as containing protein molecules. In its original state, the silver blood appeared as puddles of a highly viscous compound packed with liquefied deuterium.
