Thank GOODNESS Colbert and SN-G said "Ten years before the original" rather than "Ten years before Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise", or else we would have had some fans pointing out that error.

By the way, I used that as a litmus test for whether or not a fan podcast "analysis" of that first teaser trailer was worth my time. What I mean is that there were several Podcasters/YouTubers whom I quickly shut off as soon as I heard them say the following in their DSC trailer analysis and the "Ten years before Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise" thing:

"...but but but, it's NOT ten years before Spock and the Enterprise. Don't they know that Spock was on the Enterprise already ten years before the original series??? "

As if the Podcaster/YouTuber caught the showrunners and CBS in some huge error

No doubt the preceding scenes will explain why they're unable to make contact.

It seems like some sort of elaborate test on Georgiou's part.

 

[RAMA]

Indeed

Doesn't seem that way to me, since Georgiou solves the problem herself rather than leaving it for Burnham to solve.

I didn't' say she passed the test..for example, she didn't catch a hint of what Georgiou was doing by walking in a "circle", and she didn't answer that she would get herself off the planet, she would have been resigned to her fate...

You could write a book about all the changes, here's another from Trekcore:

But that's exactly why it's unlikely to be a test at all. Georgiou was already acting to solve the problem herself (by walking out the pattern) well before she even asked Burnham those questions. So it can't be a situation where she challenged Burnham to solve it and only took action after she failed. Yes, she wanted Burnham to learn something from her example, but that's not the same thing as a test.

 

[CorporalClegg]

I'm thinking that instead of a circle, Georgiou was pacing out the delta we saw in an earlier trailer.

I hope nobody's hurting themselves over this.

 

[JD]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what she was doing.
I didn't realize they'd made so many changes to the CGI stuff since the first trailer came out.

I don't think it was a test either, I took as more of a mentor/studen conversation or lesson than a test.

It's Star Trek. There will be blood on the floor by September 25th.

It looks like a good natured test from her longtime captain. Kind of like when Kirk didn't tell McCoy that he was lying about being marooned on the moon in STWOK. IE: Will she notice what I'm doing? Would she be creative in her survival instincts. That sort of thing.

Okay, you're using the word "test" rather loosely there.

Yeah, maybe it's something that would ease her mind about recommending her for command based on her background.

I didn't really mean a test in the Kobayashi Maru sense.

[starmike]

It seems very much like a Mr. Miyagi "wax on/wax off" kind of scene. I wouldn't look too much into it.

 

[Jackson_Roykirk]

Meh...Test or something else, whichever it is, I'm sure there will be a valid reason they were in a "stranded" situation, or a simulation of one.

 

[Kevin Wolff]

Burnham thought they were going in a circle? The 3 sharp turns in the Delta should have clued her in.
And they wouldn't have even left footprints in sand that deep much less leave lasting ones in high winds.

 

[Tosk]

People who end up "walking in circles" very rarely mean a literal circle. It's a phrase used to indicate you're back where you started.

True, but it could well be a line written as the set-up for something like: "I didn't walk us in a circle," pull back to reveal the Starfleet arrowhead kind of thing.
