Calypso

Do we think Calypso will tie in to Discovery Season 3 somehow or will it just end up being an aborted / alternate timeline or something?
 
I figure it’s going to come up at some point. The ship’s computer does all the data from the probe and the memories of Airiam. I think at some point that data will develop into Zora given enough time.
 
I suspect Discovery's computer evolving into Zora will be a key plot point in the season. The first steps were already taken in season 2, when the Sphere data gave the ship a sense of self preservation.

As for the events of "Calypso", that's possibly 1000 years ahead of season 3. I can imagine them abandoning the ship and going through some kind of time slip so "Calypso" happens between episodes or even scenes.
 
They just need to contrive a reason for Georgiou to take Discovery back to the past alone. Then she can program the ship to wait 1000 years so the crew can have it back while she goes off to star in Section 31.

Georgiou acting in her own self intersts is all the reason you need. She has a soft spot for Burnham, so that's where leaving the ship for them to find comes in.
 
If I remember rightly Calypso was set way in the future, we all know how S2 ended so I'm assuming the last season on DSC will end with the abandoning of the ship.

All we know is the ship was waiting for the crew to return for 1000 years. Is that 1000 more years after the 930 year jump?
 
My pet theory was that somehow the DIscovery goes back in time again with Georgiou on board, leaving the crew stranded in some precarious situation in the future. She contacts Tyler or Pike for help. They can't work out how to send the ship back to the future (hehehe) to aid the crew, so harebrained scheme it is. They use what they have left of Airiam to create an AI to control the ship that is programmed to maintain the ship and actively hide out and avoid detection at all costs in low energy mode until "the time is right" and Zora can go back to the place Georgiou remembers she left the crew behind. Only in the meantime Zora has also become sentient to the point she had a desire for company, leading to the events with Craft in Calypso. Shortly after that, her orders kick in and she flies to where the crew is supposed to be.

That would get Georgiou back in time for the Section 31 show, and make the Calypso event happen with the correct time frame of about a thousand years with no crew.

I really like that!
And it's so crazy, it might just work ;)
 
Picard spoiler ahead:

Jurati’s comment about the Federation not being able to make flesh and blood sentient synths for 1,000 years made me think about Calypso, which takes place 1,000 years from the 23rd century. Could Craft be a flesh and blood sentient synth? Is that why his people are at war with the V’draysh?

Yeah, "1000 years" seemed oddly specific.
 
They could abandon it during this season. Despite its AI features, it will be woefully out of date 930yrs ahead of its time. Perhaps we will get a USS Discovery-B this season, which is tasked with protecting the original ship from capture :shrug:
