During its fourth season, Star Trek: Enterprise hoped to do a story about this historic event, but the episode never materialized. The idea was that Mars would aim the comets used for terraforming at Earth, in a Cuban missile crisis-type scenario. Some elements of the story found their way into "Terra Prime".
