“Years ago, the ideals of Starfleet called a young girl from the far side of the galaxy to service.” “Find those ideals inside yourself.”

I still can’t get over how good a job Strange New Worlds did with “Ad Astra Per Aspera”. It’s a brief moment during the closing statements, but I like how distant they framed Una. The show clearly knows how small and helpless one can feel when their existence comes under scrutiny of the law. Depicting Number One in that position was incredibly striking.

I’m sorry you fell off the series. Everyone’s got their own tastes. Ironically enough Strange New World’s holodeck episode was a huge love letter and homage to classic Star Trek.

It’s been pretty enjoyable so far. Caleb, Jay-Den, Sam, and Genesis all have good chemistry as a main cast. Not every show needs to be TNG: Season 8. There’s some nits one could pick, but I’m looking forward to see where it goes once it’s out of character introduction and exposition mode.

Either a sriracha mayo with a bit of a kick, or HP sauce.

Her name is Dr. T’ana!

You ever been trapped in a sentient cave? That’s a dark place that knows things.
