A note about episode discussions on startrek.website

Right now, the plan is to post the /c/startrek discussion when the episode drops on Thursdays. Once the global community has had some time to watch and digest what they’ve seen, the /c/daystrominstitute discussion will go live on Sundays for a more in-depth analysis. This is subject to change as we evaluate what works best for the community as a whole.

    Have we ever heard of Lanthanites? Apparently they

    live such a long time they get bored and they are hiding on Earth in the 22nd century.

    I wonder if they know about the El-Aurians or Q.

        I have the feeling Pike’s Constitution class ship wasn’t the first active-duty Starfleet ship named Enterprise Pelia sat foot on.

        Pelia could have been working with Starfleet during the 2150s and she assisted Archer and his crew on the NX-01 Enterprise at some point prior to its decommissioning in 2161.

        Pelia being around in the 22nd century also brings up the opportunity for references to ENT in SNW.

      I also keep wondering about

      the El Aurians and Q in regard to this new race. If they’ve been there through a long stretch (at least?) of human history, some of these individuals must’ve encountered others at some point.

      We could get all manner of fun new backstory bits this way.
