Omega was supposed to be a new power source. Virturally unlimited potential.
Dr. Ketteract managed to make a sample of Omega... and it detonated, destroying subspace in a large region of space.
Most of our interstellar technology is Subspace dependant. Warp Drive, Interstellar Communications... Destroy Subspace around a Warp Capable civilization, and you might as well just nuke them back to the Stone Age. Space would become unnavigatable. FTL capability as we know it would be useless.
Short version: Omega is a threat to all Warp Capable civilizations and must be destroyed at any cost.
You know about the Prime Directive right? Do not interfere in the development of a Pre-Warp Culture?
Yes, I understand that... and now I'm feeling very, very afraid...

Starfleet has a secret directive that overrides the Prime Directive. If Omega is detected... use any means necessary to destroy it. Until then, the Prime Directive is recended.
*Approaches the console and inputs a HIGH level security code*
*Gets a short brieffing on where Omega was detected*

Sander... That was TRIBBLE's home... and Sander overdid it.
*Sighes and pulls up a chair*
We don't have the resources to destroy Omega aboard the Tornado. But...
You'll have to tell me who this TRIBBLE is later....
What's your idea?

I can contact the Lexington and have them meet us in system. My crew already knows about Omega because we've been fighting the Voth over a crapton of the stuff in the Solanae Sphere. They want to weaponize Omega, we are trying to destroy Omega.
Okay. So we contact the Lexington, repel any questions on whether or not your pregnant, ride to the Omega particles, turn 'em into sludge, along with anyone that created them, and then deny that your pregnant again!
*Smiles and sits in co-pilots chair.*
Great plan, cher!

*Contacts the Lexington and orders them to head for the system before plotting a course in the Cockpit*
Not even a single question.

That... looks familiar...
(Your call, but I'm thinking maybe an old Allfather base. Sound good?)
(Hmm, maybe the blown up one, with TRIBBLE's world?)
Isn't that the one you told me Sander blew up?

There's always a guy with a curious head and a big mouth.
I've got a big mouth Clive...
*Gets them into Warp*
So, when we gettin' there, cher?
*Smiles, showing he's joking.*
Well... even after that bombshell you're still in high spirits.
*Leans back and puts up his feet.*
Learned that in the Academy...
*Gives Kuntel a sideways smile*
But the offer is still on the table, if you want it, cher.
There's a dining room right?
*Moves to replicator.*
You do that, I'll get the food.
*Taps at the replicator.*
What do you want, by the way?
*Gets to work setting up the mini table*
Okay. I has breakfasts. You ready?
