The #StarTrekDay
panels are here! I'll be updating this thread with any exciting information that pops up. I'll also include my thoughts or things that generally capture my attention along the way. As Captain Pike would say...

YES, this is a very important hashtag today! #StarTrekUnitedGives

That exclusive trailer was AMAZING! I'm shaking!!! Lots of exciting new footage. I can't wait to learn more about David Ajala's character! #StarTrekDiscovery

I love that his name is Cleveland "Book" Booker because instant #TheOldGuard feels! #OldGuard #StarTrekDiscovery

"[Booker's] going to bring something special to Michael Burnham, and she's going to do the same thing to him." Oh, I can't wait for the drama and romance! My heart NEEDS IT! #StarTrekDiscovery

I can't wait to watch this over and over and over again! #StarTrekDiscovery

Adira (appearing in Episode 3) and Grey (appearing in Episode 4). Grey is a Trill, and Discovery will be diving into Trill mythology!!! Oh, I can't wait for this! #StarTrekDiscovery

That's the end of the #StarTrekDiscovery
panel. It went by so quickly. Many thanks to Alex Kurtzman and Michelle Paradise for dropping all of these amazing nuggets today! #StarTrekDay


I can also tell David Ajala (Booker) is going to be my new favorite character, haha! #StarTrekDiscovery

The official Star Trek account grabbed all the great quotes I couldn't because I'm super rusty at live tweeting! #StarTrekDiscovery

I love how Ethan, while in the grocery store, called Anson after finding out they were getting a show and was like, "Dude, this is crazy!" Haha!

Pike knows the circumstances surrounding his fate, and it involves a promotion. I'm super curious to see how this character will mentally and emotionally deal with this because he has to accept that promotion. MY EMOTIONS! #StrangeNewWorlds

Going back a bit, Anson's story about Alex Kurtzman eating an apple while telling him, "Yeah, we've got a show," brought tears to my eyes.
#StrangeNewWorlds


They'll be returning to an episodic style, but character arcs will be told throughout the episodic format. And according to Akela Cooper, there's be times when "one plot will be sprinkled through until they get to that point." #StrangeNewWorlds

I would LOVE a crossover between #StrangeNewWorlds
and #LowerDecks! I don't know how they'll make that happen, but I'm all for it. #StarTrekDay


That was such a great panel! I was tearing up towards the end there, especially when Akela Cooper was talking about how when she saw Uhura and Sisko growing up, it meant Black people made it into the future. And here she is now writing #StarTrek
stories. #StrangeNewWorlds

Really loved this moment with Akela Cooper and Davy Perez. (And how Akiva was wiping his eyes!) These are the kinds of voices that should be working on Star Trek. #StrangeNewWorlds
