Is it fair to assume that, by showing the Klingon turning Disco, that the implication is that Discovery exists in a reality almost identical to the Prime Timeline, but with differently evolved Klingons?
If so, it begs a question. Is there a Mirror Universe for every reality? Or do they all share one?
Oh my god, I can’t believe I’m about to have such a pedantic correction… But the company that make the Hotjo mugs used on DS9 is Highwave, not Hotwave.
The best agent Bajoran TSA ever had.
Speaking as humble cop, it’s a good ticket, but the Brunt of their support comes from other Combses. The Weyou-negotiate an election needs a broader base. Look at the Agi campaign of 2020; people said after the debates Agimus-t shore up his support, instead it Shran-k. So far the Combses have run a good campaign but hardly the crème-de-la-Krem; they need to Plek-ate their critics. Anyway, I Tiron this subject, better get back to busting that sci-fi writer Benny’s chops. Yours, Officer Kevin Mulkahey
We saw 4 minutes of Tom Paris the father!
That’s a half-myth it seems. There was a write in campaign from the fans to rename the then tentatively named Constitution (in recognition of the 200th anniversary of the ratification of the US Declaration of Independence), to Enterprise. At the same time, Gerald Ford had the final say, and he himself served aboard the famous WW2 aircraft carrier, the USS Enterprise (CV-6). It would appear that there is a confluence of two wishes to lead to the test vehicle being finally officially named the Enterprise. Certainly of recent years, NASA has seemed happy to not dispel that story though.
Some interesting tid-bits here though. The NCC-1701 was early on going to be named the USS Yorktown. Yorktown-class was the ship class of the CV-6 Enterprise. While we all know that the ship class of the NCC-1701 was the Constitution-class.
So, it’s my belief therefore that, in our timeline and Star Trek’s timeline, American men of a certain age seem to be obsessed with the symbolism of three particular names; and no matter what, the Shuttle would have been Enterprise in both.
A decent point, but each of those ships were from realities where the Cerritos is that class. Just as there are Klingons who never left Quo’nos or never evolved past proto-Klingons and those crews and ships were affected by the reality waves to reveal them.
I think there is a reality within which the Klingons evolved slightly differently and developed a slightly different culture, but remain close enough that we don’t see major changes to the events of the Prime timeline.
