    They confiscated the portal tech and shipped it away in crates marked classified and with the Daystrom Institute logo.

    Wesley said Solum needed to invent that tech so that the Protostar could be sent back in time. So the Federation clearly didn’t have anything like it yet.

    What are the odds this is the precursor to the portal tech stolen and used by Vadic in Picard season 3?

      Holy shit. All so that eventually all the young folks turn on the older officers on their ships. Wesley finally getting his revenge for the way he was treated growing up. He was playing this 4D chess all along

    That space and time comment kind of rubbed me the wrong way. By the nature of planetary bodies and ships moving at incredible speeds things have to move through space anyway. Episode 19 at 11:54 had a minor animation mistake going on Bribble with some weird clipping. I’m glad that other Val N’Akat supported Gwyn in that climactic battle. It was starting to feel like the dad and the BBEG were the only ones on the planet between the time duplicates in the earlier episodes.

    I felt the synergy between this show and Picard went a little stronger than needed. Especially considering the first season was a little weaker than the others. It also felt a little late.

    I’m still looking forward to any sequel though. I like the hook of slightly unsanctioned exploring.
