3 years agoI’m super glad we have new Trek and that it’s this good. Trek can be a lot of things to a lot of people. Sometimes it’s just fun, and that’s perfectly fine. And sometimes it affects us deeply by providing us a story about us. About our humanity, our struggles and faults, and our strengths. Thank you for sharing with us how it made you feel, and for sharing a bit of your story.
They work just like they did in TOS, where everything is made up and the stardates don’t matter.
For real tho. The TOS season 2 writer’s bible (which you can find online) basically says the stardate number is a complex calculation that depends not only on time, but your location in the galaxy. I would not be surprised at all if the showrunners/writers are aware of this and are purposely doing it as an homage.
