Ext. Space-Earth orbit

(NOTE:  Episode credits fall over opening scenes.)

The USS Ares is docked at Earth Station McKinley, as we hear the Captain's voice. Capt. Taylor (v.o): ''Captain's log stardate 53985.4. The Ares is docked at Earth Station McKinley, following the end of the Dominion War. And so far it's boring and the crew is getting anxious to resume our mission of exploration, I for one can't wait until we leave Earth orbit and restore the peace.''
