UPN last night premiered the trailer for the first new Star Trek: Enterprise episode of 2004.

Entitled "Chosen Realm", the episode centers on a group of religious zealots who hijack Enterprise in the hope of using it as a weapon against the enemies of their faith. Roxann Dawson directed from a script by Manny Coto.

The 20-second promo is available for download online courtesy of StarTrek.com and The Daily Trekker. For those with slower connections, here's a transcript:
