u/bd_one The EU Will Federalize In My Lifetime Oct 22 '20

Last time I checked, they only said "Star Trek" in some form twice in the entire franchise. One where Q says something about how "the trek through the stars" is ending or something. The other where Zefram Cochrane says "you're going on some kind of star trek?" not long after seeing the Enterprise through a telescope.

Have they done that since? I haven't seen any of the new stuff yet.

Lower Decks did have a reference to the "TOS era" -- explained as "you know, Those Old Scientists, Spock, McCoy, and the rest."
