    The only issues I have (currently, until proven wrong) with DIscovery with the Spore Drive and other technological things, is that it didn’t seem to have an answer for why the Federation didn’t use it later. I do know that in the timeskip season, a log does not mention the use of the s-drive.

    But man I can only imagine how pissed Admiral Janeway would have been to find out it exists.

    Plus I can’t hate a show that has Doug Jones in it. I didn’t get into Discovery, but I don’t hate it.






  • I never got into Discovery, but that’s neat that they remembered that species exists. Someday I’ll give it another go. I like when Star Trek does go “…Wait that’s a thing we did, go back to that.” Partially why I enjoy Lower Decks.

    I also saw some of the episode where the Universal Translator broke, and I wish that was a full episode, on how to deal with it. I’m kinda shocked the Federation never has that problem often enough where they need to have “Star Trek Esperanto” as needed for all cadets to graduate.


  • We also gotta remember, Star Trek is almost always focuses on the big ships. Enterprise, Voyager, Cerritos, they are all important, but I highly doubt the federation needs to deal with a major galactic event every other Tuesday. I doubt the USS Luna had as much adventure as the TItan. Most are standard surveying ships, like a Steamrunner with a crew of 24.

    If they did, the Federation does a shockingly good job.


  • I’ve always had the idea that ships that were focused on on species had certain accommodations that other species would find too annoying or dangerous to live on with service. Vulcan ships are probably warmer than humans would like, Andorrans would probably die.

    I always forget the name of their species, but the people who require a breather to pump in fresh non-Oxygen rich, I assume that if they had any ships, their life support would be exclusively their air, with those neck devices to help pump when visiting other plants and ships.

    It would make more sense why Vulcan, an original member of the Federation, still has seemingly dozens if not hundreds of ships with their own design. I assume Andorians and Tellarite do too, but Star Trek forgets about them often.
