Occurrences of 47

Missed opportunity with Starbase 46 in "Into the Forrest I Go."

Unless Starbase 47 has some canonical location that would prevent it's use in the episode.
 
I used to think the 47 thing was fueled by paranoia too but the writers have already admitted to injecting more 47's into the shows than what random chance would allow as a joke.

I'm positive they didn't do Starbase 47 because it would be too obvious and detract from the episode.
Isn't Starbase 47 Vanguard from the novel series of the same name? The DSC writers have novelverse connections so they probably didn't want to conflict with that.
 
Cool, gonna keep my eyes peeled when rewatch.

I did a litle letters=numbers check, lots of 4's... Harder to find 7
Star=4, trek=4, kirk=4, Gene is 4 etc..
But Tilly is 7 and Lorca 4,
so that obviously translate to Lorca&Tilly sittin' in a tree at some point =)
 
Isn't Starbase 47 Vanguard from the novel series of the same name? The DSC writers have novelverse connections so they probably didn't want to conflict with that.
Interestingly enough, David Mack, who co-created Vanguard, did have direct interaction with the show's writing staff.
Next he'll probably say that Lorca killed Kennedy
Don't be ridiculous, it was clearly Saru.
 
While the spore thing was filling up from 0 to 2000 percent there were a couple frames that showed numbers that had a 47 in it.
