Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

[Elodan]

Really enjoyed it.

Did they explain why Ortega ( the helmsman ) and the navigator ( forgot her name ) were wearing red instead of gold?

Not that I saw. Gold would typically be Command Track, while red would be Support. That's usually Engineering, but also includes groups like Security.

'Operations' I believe it's called. Command, operations, science.

Not sure what they're calling it now, so you may well be correct. According to my ancient "Star Fleet Technical Manual" it was referred to as "Engineering and Support Services." Not sure, but it appears to be from the first (Canadian) printing in 1975.

Nah, just correct.

The show is definitely better than DISCO.

 

[Umbran]

Nah, just correct.

You were both correct. It has been called both.

I just remembered one bit of Star Trek lore that they played fast & loose with; The Gorn. La'an Noonien-Singh said that she was captured by The Gorn and was the only survivor. Unless this was another "classified" incident The Gorn weren't encountered until the Enterprise's Cestus 3 incident.
