That was the episode called “Relics.” The Sphere was called a "Dyson's Sphere" named after a physicist named Freeman Dyson. The episode was touching and very bright on a number of levels, not the least of which was that the sphere, originally intended to be an ultra efficient container for a civilization, became a death trap. Not unlike an old body is to a person.....
Many folks interest in computers started with Star Trek, and everyone who knows the series knows that Scotty almost always saved the ship and crew. Ironically he was only seldom given credit for it. Such is the life of a miracle worker.
