In early 2389, Stennes and the ''Drake'' crew searched the area between Earth and Alpha Centauri for a missing shuttle containing Lt. Commander [[Whale, David|David Whale]]. Stennes and Lt. Commander [[Kells, Aron|Aron Kells]] worked together to modify the ''Drake'''s sensors and plot the most likely areas to search for the shuttle. While conducting the search, the ''Drake'' was pulled into an anomaly and deposited into a previously unexplored dimension later dubbed "null space." With traditional impulse and warp engines unavailable, a network of sails was deployed to the hull to ride particle streams moving through null space, thereby providing propulsion. Stennes supervised the installation of the sails and manually maneuvered the ''Drake'' through the streams. Commander [[Rogers, William|Will Rogers]] ordered Stennes to lead an away team to a nearby planet, where a Gorn ship carrying a cache of dilithium had crashed. Departing the ''Drake'' with Ensign [[Sung, Marcus|Marcus Sung]], Chief Petty Officer Jane Van Klaveren, Petty Officer [[Mint, Domane|Domane Mint]] and Crewman Thy'lek, Stennes' orders were to secure the dilithium and attempt contact with another away team already on the planet. During a rough landing, Didrik suffered a lacerated cornea and subsequent globe rupture in his right eye. | In early 2389, Stennes and the ''Drake'' crew searched the area between Earth and Alpha Centauri for a missing shuttle containing Lt.

Stennes' team successfully located the dilithium inside an unmanned Gorn spacecraft, but while returning to the shuttlecraft, Stennes' came into contact with an atmospheric mist that appears as part of the planet's weather system. The mist alters the genes of living organisms it contacts, leaving Stennes unable to be rescued by the Drake's transporter. After the rest of the away team were beamed back to the ''Drake'', Stennes repaired the shuttle's propulsion system and flew it back into space, where he was tractored aboard and treated by the ''Drake'''s medical staff. | Stennes' team successfully located the dilithium inside an unmanned Gorn spacecraft, but while returning to the shuttlecraft, Stennes' came into contact with an atmospheric mist that appears as part of the planet's weather system.

Though the genetic damage was repaired, he was left with a minor vision impairment that thereafter necessitated the use of corrective lenses. A more serious side effect of his encounter was the overstimulation of his pain receptors, which has to date left him unable to feel pain. | ||
In April 2389, Stennes was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, junior grade. | In April 2389, Stennes was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, junior grade. | ||
