The Temporal Cold War. The Delphic Expanse. The Sphere Builders. A lot of 22nd century places, species and events get buried or classified and don't seem to be common knowledge 200 or even 100 years later. Starfleet Command loves a good classified file.

I think Dahj and Soji's mother will be a character we'll see again.

And the fact that she knows enough to tell Dahj to go see Picard probably means she knows something about Maddox.

Could Maddox be the unseen father Dahj her sister talk about ? Perhaps not

We don’t know if they are classified. I imagine the Sphere Builder stuff would be publicly known. The Cold War stuff is a different story. Only a few knew about that and they probably kept it a secret.
 
I don't know. Transdimensional beings of immense power and technological strength who came perilously close to destroying all life in our galaxy and who might theoretically one day return might be one of those things that the 22nd century Starfleet felt was best left unknown by the wider public. The Xindi couldn't be hidden away for pretty obvious reasons but their mysterious benefactors from another dimension might be pretty tough to swallow.

I'm almost positive that all the public would know about the attack by the Sphere Builders is that it was an Alien Probe that devastated a large swath of the Earth and that it was destroyed by Star Fleet.
Perhaps that Captain Archer and his crew were instrumental in doing so.

Anything else would have started a wide spread panic and/or riot that the Government would certainly NOT want to have to deal with.

Indeed. Also, it also would create even more hostility towards other alien races, and have the Terran Prime movement have even more power.

Plus, Starfleet is not always on the up and up: https://www.cbr.com/star-trek-20-times-starfleet-was-wrong/
 
Really enjoyed Rememberance. I thought it had the feel of a TNG episode as it started with the dreams and their apparent ambiguity and that’s not a bad thing. Patrick Stewart is such an accomplished actor that his presence always lifts a production.

I haven’t read most of this thread, but is the show set in the Kelvinverse? Seems like if it was, that would have been common knowledge prior to the show’s premiere.

I liked Dahj and was pretty happy when they let us know she was a twin. I don’t recall Dahj mentioning a sister, but hard to see only one of the sisters knowing about the other.

So, Starfleet still isn’t perfect?I’m sure there is a certain amount of consternation about this among the fanboys.

The final shots of the Borg cube left my jaw on the floor, even though I knew there would be a Borg connection.

Looking forward to the next episode.
 
I really liked how we got to see a good bit of what civilian life on earth is like in the 24th century. That's something we really never saw in any of the prior series (or even in the movies).

That being said, it looked more like present day earth (but with flying cars) rather than the shiny and clean utopia I was picturing in my head for years. There was even graffiti in that alley in the city that the android girl was at. Does this mean there are gangs in the future? If so, whatever happened to crime and deviance being basically eliminated in the 24th century?
 
Before this our best peek at civilian life on 24th century Earth might be the "Paradise Lost" two-parter on DS9. It gave us an extended glance at social life in New Orleans as well as visits to San Francisco and Paris.

Kids and Spray Paint will be with society for ever. :techman:
