News Starfleet Academy Coming to P+

I’m interested to see what 32nd century Earth looks like. Will it still roughly look the same as today with future tech or are we looking at the new Coruscant?

Dunno.

But I predict 5x the shuttles flying by in the scenic shots over San Fransisco Bay (because it's in the FUTURE future).

And of course, the Golden Gate Bridge (with detached support struts & suspension ropes).
 
Where did you hear this?

The bridge certianlly wasn't as they used it during the Season 5 epilogue, which was filmed at least 6-8 months after filming wrapped.
Only 8 weeks passed to shoot the epiloge. And the bridge was the last thing standing. They already struck the rest by that time.
 
I'm inclined to think there will be new Starfleet uniforms and insignia. I wouldn't mind if they used the ones seen in the epilogue of DIS' finale (symmetrical at last!), but I wouldn't be surprised if they went with something different even from those...

Again, where are you getting this information?

Season 5 finished shooting November 2022, they were cancelled in March. That’s more than 8 weeks

Something like this, I should think.

This interview with Michelle Paradise reveals they were allotted eight weeks after the cancellation announcement was made to write and film the epilogue. Several of the show's standing sets had already begun to be torn down, though the bridge was left standing until the epilogue was filmed.
There were some significant guardrails around what they could accomplish. The production team had only eight weeks from when Paramout+ and CBS Studios signed off on the epilogue to when they had to shoot it. Fortunately, the bridge set hadn’t been struck yet (though several standing sets already had been). And the budget allowed only for three days of production.
 
Yes! Floating Golden Gate Bridge!:guffaw:

Ugh, no.
Because god forbid a Star Trek show be actually optimistic about the future as a whole.

Jesus Fuck Star Trek was invented after WW2, at the height of nuclear tension of the cold war, when EVERY OTHER sci-fi was doom & gloom! Don't tell me "Old Star Trek is too optimistic, because the current time is depressing we should only ever do depressing future - like every other sci-fi show, ever".

Jesus, how can you miss the unique selling point of your own product this much?

I have serious "Let's use X instead of Twitter, because it's more edgy" vibes.

Kurtzman literally says in the interview in the article that I linked that it will be an optimistic show.

"It’s an incredibly optimistic show, an incredibly fun show; it’s a very funny show, and it’s a very emotional show. I think these kids, in different ways, are going to represent what a lot of kids are feeling now.”

DId you actually read the whole thing?

Maybe reread the article?
So they’re the first who’ll inherit, who’ll re-inherit, the task of exploration as a primary goal, because there just wasn’t room for that during the Burn — everybody was playing defense. It’s an incredibly optimistic show, an incredibly fun show; it’s a very funny show, and it’s a very emotional show. I think these kids, in different ways, are going to represent what a lot of kids are feeling now.”

You really need to read and comprehend articles before getting your jock in a twist about it. Kurtzman says in various ways that SFA is about being hopeful for the future.
