Miri
Stardate: 2713.5 / Airdate: 10.27.66
Investigating an old style distress signal, Kirk, Spock, McCoy and a landing party beam down to a planet that's identical to Earth. They find a decaying 20th Century city inhabited only by "ancient children", diseased by a life-prolongation project that killed off the adults 300 years before. Aging imperceptibly, the children contract the disease when they reach puberty. Among the rubble, Kirk discovers Miri (Kim Darby), their only hope for survival, when they are all stricken with the still contagious plague.
