Yes. I know. And you cannot fudge a lot, but at least some of the time.
Spoilers Ah, the NEW uniforms...!
- Thread starter Blue Squadron
- Start date
The escape pod must have been out there for quite a while flying back towards earth because Earth ships don't seem to be able to make it as far as Titan
Or at least they don’t routinely.
In this instance the pod could have transmitted a mayday on a specific Earth used frequency with an Earth transponder code.
That would have generated some attention and maybe even a rescue mission.
Adria got rescued by EDF and as an orphan had no other options, she* used the opportunity to join to find out what she needed to know as she said.
With her aptitude demonstrated she probably got fast tracked, and here we are.
TBH I find it pretty easy to work with her story in my head. Warp ships still exist so she could have been picked up easily. It's how a planet with those capabilities keeps contact with its shops but loses it with Titan that kills it for me.
I understood it as unwillingness more than in capability.
They didn’t make the impression that it would be difficult to talk once they got past their aggressions.
Yeah, it's plausible but it's just irritating when things clearly haven't been fully thought through and subsequently require unnecessary mental gymnastics to make them fit. Just too many silly little inconsistencies and wrinkles that really should be ironed-out before filming...
It really wouldn't have made a vast difference to the ongoing storyline if Adira had been, say, 16 when in a relationship, around the time of Grey's joining and subsequent untimely demise and was then said to be around 20 to 22 at the time the EDF boarded Discovery. That might have made a bit more sense in the context of the timing of Adm Tal's message too.
Was looking back at previous designs (albeit recent from out perspective) and perhaps there's a bit of design lineage here...
For what it's worth, some pure speculation on how the Admiral ranks might look in 3189 (if the designers have actually bothered to work out the full scheme). Maybe:

Especially as Blu is 25-something the 16 years old thing is really odd.
The placement of those pips on the 3189 Admiral looks painful/uncomfortable. I would not want to press pips onto my collar on that particular location of my neck.Was looking back at previous designs (albeit recent from out perspective) and perhaps there's a bit of design lineage here...

Looking at Clancy's outfit I think the black pants make a huge difference compared to the all grey
There's a seam on the right that gives a hint of the monster maroon jacket flap.
She's wearing the "current" 3189 combadge, with the two pips of a lieutenant on the left-hand edge of the ellipse.
Yes, whether it's a "true" double-breasted top or just a false design feature, it does have some similarities to the maroon jackets and the TNG-era dress uniforms.
There's a hint of something similar to jacket variant (presumably the more formal version) of the 3189 "current" uniforms. It would make sense if they were intended to be the successors to this pattern of uniform (whether directly or with other intermediate steps in between).

Thank you for sharing your artwork. These are great at putting the so-far glimpsed uniforms into perspective.There's a bit of conjecture and extrapolation here, but it looks like we're going to see 3189 uniforms that look something like this:
We don't know who the other 4 hosts are specifically by name, but there is also the Starfleet captain with a Picard era uniform. Could he be the earliest host?
Agreed. I'd say that's Captain Kasha Tal.
How did Alec Peters get a job on DISCOVERY? That guy on the left sure looks like him.
Memory Alpha also indicates Kasha might be the first, but has no info in which of the unknown four is which.
But even if 5 out of 6 Tal hosts lived 100 years after joining, that would only put the first one 500 or so years earlier.
Odds are they just grabbed the "newest" uniform they could for the scene, because that's a long time for a uniform style to hang around.
Is it just the lighting, or is the shoulder area a different color? Looks kind of grayish.
The lighting was very dark and blue-ish in that scene and I brightened the image. I see the same dark red as Riker's uniform.
No it really doesn't. The actor in question is oded fehr. Alec peters wishes he was as handsome as oded fehr.
