Star Trek: Discovery finds Captain Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) and her crew on an epic adventure across the galaxy, chasing clues and solving riddles in a race to uncover an ancient power. It’s a rollicking adventure that brings a lighter tone and loads of fun in the series’ final season. Recently, during an interview with the press, showrunners Alex Kurtzman and Michelle Paradise told SciFi Vision where they found inspiration for the crew’s final mission.

New episodes air Thursdays on Paramount Plus.
