It's only sitting next to a portal to the other side of the galaxy that also happens to be the home of a species that exists outside of linear time - nothing significant there!

They seem to be tailoring the SFS previews for the social media crowd, with no "standard" formatting.

I suppose you could argue it's targeting a specific audience, but...it's weird.

Oh, interesting - not that I know of, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did some sort of tie-in.

The Chimerans were introduced about a year ago, though it's been a pretty thin year since then, and we still don't know much about them.

Oh of course, you're absolutely right!

The Borg have only been mentioned once in the 32nd century, unless there's something I'm forgetting:

At the conference discussing the species behind the DMA, someone raises the possibility that they could have a collective intelligence. President Rillak says, "like the Borg?"

In my opinion, her tone is a little fearful. Make of that what you will!

They are both in the "prime" Star Trek universe, but the "classic" Borg Collective is dead, leaving only Jurati's splinter faction (as far as we know).

Additionally, we'd like you to join us in welcoming Thomas Marrone as the new Executive Producer of Star Trek Online! Formerly the Art Director for Star Trek Online, Thomas Marrone will be leading its current and future development.

Holy crap, what a career trajectory...

Oh yeah, the publicity stills are often laser-focused (phaser-focused) on being as boring as possible - if it weren't for the logline and information on the writers and directors, I'd consider them almost completely worthless.

This is now an Avengers: Doomsday spoiler community.

As a cadet sets out to solve an ancient Starfleet mystery, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and learns the value of forging her own path. Meanwhile, Nahla agrees to help a fellow chancellor with an elaborate alien ritual.

I have a strong suspicion that this shot from one of the early trailers wasn't a throwaway easter egg as many of us assumed:

Cadet SAM examining a wall panel that says, "Contronting the unexplainable. The fate of Benjamin Sisko, Emissary of the Prophets. Captain Sisko's Fate: Did he die in the Fire Caves of Bajor? Did he live on in the Celestial Temple?

Between this and Freeland, I wonder if we'll see an election called in the near future.

The show was from a time when the U.S. thought they had beaten fascism

I think all the time about how early TNG largely reflected the falsehoods we were being sold at the time - that all of these things were Past Problems.
