News Starfleet Academy Coming to P+

[The Wormhole]

5'11 myself, used to be one of the taller people around throughout school even during my twenties. Now though, I'm noticing today's young people seem to be giants. There's some guys in their teens and early twenties at work who are noticeably taller than me. Even my nephew, who is only thirteen is already the same height as me.

CosmicCrap "news" is suggesting that S2 will be canceled.
I hate the toxic fans so much

As long as you don’t look like Lurch, it’s all good

 

[Jayson1]

I used to be called "Lurch" in high school (I was tall AND I have a deep voice -- I sang tenor in church! )

I have been called Lurch before as well.

 

[Agony_Boothb]

Nope. I might be the tallest and fatest member. Maybe most horny as well, but I would need to take a look at Lynx's browser history to confirm.

We all know Lynx would just be googling Jennifer Lien arrest photos and nothing that occurred after 1997.

A fury would build.

A fury would build.

I see what you did there.

Fun Fact: Ted Cassidy provided the voice of the original Gorn in "Arena".

I’m 5”6’. There was one time in the 6th grade that I was taller than everyone else. Those days are long gone.

I was 5'6" when I was in the fifth grade.

My teacher used me as an example of what happens when a person stops growing.

She jumped the gun. I was six feet when I was a freshman in high school (Oops).

Star Trek’s Robert Picardo Notes The Major Change He Had To Adjust To When Returning For Starfleet Academy

The language is different in the 32nd century than it was in the 24th century. We never said any bad words in the 24th century. We spoke sort of this not Mid-Atlantic English, sort of mid-Galactic English, so there are differences in the show that I had to get used to.

Well, there's your problem.
This is not a 32nd century VS 24th century thing.
It's NuTrek VS Classic Star Trek.

Mostly, it was the way the cadets spoke, and then I had to use their own vernacular when I talked to them.

Ah, yes. Younger, edgier vernacular.

A singularity is about to explode! Weapons at maximum!

So I speak differently as well, but it's a reaction, and it's to gain their attention and hopefully their respect.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?
The cadets don't pay attention?
The cadets don't show respect? The instructors have to work the get respect?

Isn't mutual respect a core tenet of Starfleet?

He didn't mention "mutual respect."
He said he had to adapt to get the cadet's respect (and even their attention).

Respect to learn sometimes needs to be earned.

Shock horror that teenage characters behave like teenagers

In other news water is wet.

Another great hot take from you.

Given the military bent of the trailer, I'd say those core tenet's went out the window with the burn.

 

[fireproof78]

Military? Those are tenants that Starfleet has had since TNG:

RIKER: I was seven months out of the Academy, my head still ringing with words like duty and honour.
~Pegasus.

And where was the mutual respect of Pressman violating the Treaty of Algeron?

 

[Tosk]

I'm sure there will be at least one instance of an instructor talking about the most important part of being in Starfleet. Beyond the responsibilities of duty and honor.

The truth.

After all...the first duty of every Starfleet officer is to the truth. Whether it's scientific truth, or historical truth, or personal truth. It is the guiding principle upon which Starfleet is based.

Not in a military chain of command. Granted in Trek everyone at some point breaks the rules and gets slap on the wrist at best for it.

That is the least military "military academy" I've ever seen.
