There's a Star Trek episode on that.

You're probably thinking of V'ger, the errant Voyager probe that is central to "Star Trek: The Motion Picture".

There's also a brief scene in which a Klingon ship destroys a different Voyager probe in "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier".

Wasn't it a movie?
Yep the first movie. It's so good and similar to the original series episodes (with much higher budget though) that it's easy to confuse with them.
Well if traditional wisdom is to be believed, the first movie is one of the "bad" ones (being an odd number).

Though I have to admit disagreeing with that rule of thumb on almost every point.
