I think I found the font used in the logo's text. Here's an earlier thread on the subject.
As for the actual font...

I didn’t know I had to spell it all the way out; we’re all Trek fans here who know the backstory.
Anson Mount’s Pike was a popular character on DSC and they gave him his own show based around the character first portrayed in a low-budget pilot 42 years earlier. The two shows are contemporaries and they share actors. There wouldn’t be a SNW if that actor hadn’t been a hit in that role on DSC. Ergo, SNW can be considered a spin-off of DSC and people are inevitably going to compare the two current live action Trek shows. I watched DSC for the first time this past week just to see what all those comparisons were about. For that matter, I watched Orville for the first time last month solely because I kept seeing people compare it to Star Trek. People compare stuff. Sometimes that draws new viewers.

One would hope; I certainly don’t want SNW cancelled because some other Trek show failed to make corporate enough money. I haven’t enjoyed any new Trek this much since the 90’s. It’s a real treat.

And now, I’m taking my headache and going home before anyone else parses my meaning and I feel compelled to answer. <eye twitch>

It was a joke. Someone, might have been Goldsman, said it was the longest turn around between pilot and series, ever. (also a joke). Of course it spun out of DISCO and Mount's performance.

 

[DEWLine]

A joke grounded in fact. And, yes, it took DSC's creation to make SNW finally happen.

(For context, my mom's name is Karen, and I cannot stand people using that term because my mom is the furthest thing from the used term one can be.)

It's my wife's name.

 

[Farscape One]

It's my wife's name.

Then you probably have had similar feelings about the term being used.

 

[DaveyNY]

Obviously she takes after her mother.

The gespar doesn't fall far from the bush.

 

[Captain Jollydark]

Well, SNW is a spin-off of Discovery and it’s been much more favorably received than DSC, so it’s kinda natural to draw a comparison.

Comparison, sure. But it's always, Discovery sucked and now we have real Star Trek. But Discovery was bold and gorgeous and beautifully written, and had brilliant featured actors like Michelle Yeoh and Jason Isaacs. I'm going to miss the hell out of it. (And, just for comparison, I will not miss Picard.)

For season 1 and 2 sure, but later it was nonsensical garbage.

 

[Mudd]

Nope.

Good cast, though.

 

[NCC-73515]

But Discovery was bold and gorgeous and beautifully written

What part of which season are we talking about here...?

 

[cooleddie74]

DSC has a top-notch cast. But beautiful and masterfully penned? Ehhh.

 

[Captain Jollydark]

Nope.

Good cast, though.

Yup

 

[BK613]

Yeah, probably why I mentioned the euphemism should die in a fire...

 

[Mudd]

Yeah, probably why I mentioned the euphemism should die in a fire...

On this we are agreed.

 

[parsonsm]

That's kind of how comedy works.

Actually I think some of the best comedy can be found it the absurdity of how normal things can be.

 

[fireproof78]

I tried being normal once; didn't find it funny.

 

[Commander Troi]

I gave up on trying to be normal decades ago.

 

[cooleddie74]

This "normal" you guys speak of sounds like pure, unadulterated evil. There be dragons there.

 

[Tallguy]

Are... you saying dragons are normal?

 

[cooleddie74]

Well, the ones with minivans and mortgages.
