Spoilers Star Trek: Short Treks 2x04 - "The Girl Who Made the Stars"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Would you dare show him TAS?
I tried that before, as it happens...he wasn't keen. Think it was a little too soon for him, so maybe he'd go for it now. The animation is so basic on that, though...
I haven't seen this and I don't think it was on Netflix at all during season 2. So that really does suck.
I had this thought myself but others have posted the same thought as a theory but in this short was the storm that young Michael Burnham saw in the sky the red matter explosion from Star Trek 2009 which rippled through multiple realities and was the point where the two timelines diverged?

Do 3 year olds already care about animation styles?
You’re not missing much, believe me.
The season one ones are on Netflix. Under the trailers option.
I'd defintely like to see a Nhan Short Trek.
Nhan's homeworld (Barzan) is very resource-poor and doesn't have any kind of spaceflight capability, let alone warp drive. So the Federation would not normally make first contact with them. How does somebody from a world like that even make it off planet in the first place, let alone become a Starfleet officer?

I've seen all the season 1 shorts just bummed out Netflix didn't put all the season 2 ones out. Why did they not do that this time around?
Aren't the Barzan in contact with Warp capable species and engaging in trade with them?
Ditto on that I'd love to see a whole short trek with Nhan
They are, but we have no idea how they managed to accomplish that (at least with the Federation - see below).
In any case, the first time (TNG's "The Price") we meet the Barzan, it's over a hundred years after Nhan's appearance. And even then, Barzan still doesn't have any kind of spaceflight capabiility. The Federation normally only makes contact with worlds that have warp drive, so how did Nhan get offworld in the first place? How did she find her way into Starfleet? Who sponsored her application to Starfleet Academy? There's lots of storytelling opportunities there.

Seems pretty straight forward. Warp capable culture comes in contact with the Barzan. They offer the Barzan goods and services. The Barzan are now part of the Galactic culture. Since the contact has been made the UFP's Prime Directive doesn't apply, so the Federation are Starfleet can recruit Barzans.
