Product Details
The sixth live-action series set in the Star Trek universe,
Star Trek: Discovery was released on 24 September 2017
as a single serialized storyline rather than previous series’
weekly destination-based adventure format.
The series continues to reflect Star Trek creator Gene
Roddenberry's optimistic vision of the future, together
with his allegories of the human condition and
high-concept science fiction.
Set in the 23rd century, about 90 years after Star Trek:
Enterprise and 10 years before Star Trek: The Original
Series, Star Trek: Discovery deals with hostilities
between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon
Empire.
Star Trek: Discovery is notable for minority characters,
taking a color and gender-blind approach. Its diverse crew
includes First Officer Michael Burnham, a female
Commander with a traditionally male name and the first
African-American woman playing a lead character in a
Star Trek series.
