Spoiler: season 2

I've only just met them, but the Loom/Wesley stuff definitely gave me Coda vibes.

Aaron Waltke confirmed in an interview with TrekCulture that the mirror in Janeway’s quarters was pulled from Distant Shores

I was just looking around at Memory Alpha and found out that in Prodigy Season 2, which I haven't watched yet, that they brought back the Terran Empire in the MU, which I don't really like. I much prefer the more peaceful Galactic Commonwealth that the Rebellion turned into in the books, it just seems strange to me that after everything they went through with the Alliance, and with the influence that the Federation had on them, that the Terrans would just go back to the Empire.

Could be an alternate MU and not THE MU.
The DiscoVerse version perhaps?

Yeah, I’d just chalk that up to the multiverse. Even from the novels, there was evidence of a version of the MU where the empire was still active in the late 24th century. (There are probably other examples, but the one that jumps immediately to mind is Fleet Captain Sisko of the Terran Empire in the “Council of Siskos” scene.)

 

[JD]

Yeah, that seems like a reasonable explanation, especially if the episode involved doesn't directly contradict anything from the books.

The Coda novels explain the novel stuff and its fate.

 

[JD]

I haven't read the Coda books yet.
But it's not really the contraction that's my main point, I just find the choice to go back to an Empire strange on the characters' part.

I assumed the MU we see in Prodigy was based on the one we see in the IDW comics, where the Terran Empire continues to exist in the 24the century, it's just extremely smaller and the reason why the characters on DS9's MU episodes think the Terran Empire is defeated is due to propaganda the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance is feeding them.

Ah. Well the Coda books have MU scenes. That’s why I mentioned them

Oh, I like that idea, I really enjoyed those.

All the 24th century projects (plus STO's 25th century) are also using the Terran Emblem, or a variation of it, that was first created for those comics.

They even sell Merch with that emblem on the Star Trek website.
