Unveiling Mind-blowing Star Trek Revelations: Uncover 8 Exclusive Questions From Prodigy Season 2 Clip!

Summary

New footage from Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 reveals the reunion of the young heroes and their mission under Admiral Janeway on the USS Voyager-A.

The Doctor unexpectedly shows up and casually refers to Admiral Janeway by her first name, causing viewers to wonder about his own first name. Many mysteries remain unresolved, such as Gwyn's location, Asencia's comeback, the mission to rescue Captain Chakotay, potential returns of characters from Star Trek: Voyager, and what will happen to Voyager-A in the wormhole. Fans are eagerly anticipating the second season and its new streaming platform.

New footage from Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 raises intriguing questions about the future of Admiral Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and her ragtag crew. During STLV: 57-Year Mission, Prodigy's executive producers Kevin and Dan Hageman, Aaron J. Waltke, Jennifer Muro, and composer Nami Melumad unveiled a four-minute clip from the season 2 premiere. This tantalizing glimpse captivated the dedicated fans of Star Trek: Prodigy.

In the season 2 clip, the characters Dal R'El (Brett Gray), Zero (Angus Imrie), Rok-Tahk (Rylee Alazraqui), Jankom Pog (Jason Mantzoukas), and Murf (Dee Bradley Baker) reunite at Starfleet Academy. They are still striving for admission, hoping that the opportunity to serve under Admiral Janeway on a new mission will persuade the Academy to accept them as Starfleet members. Surprisingly, it is not Janeway who escorts them onto a shuttle, but The Doctor (Robert Picardo) from Star Trek: Voyager. The Doctor guides the young heroes to the new USS Voyager-A, a Lamarr Class science vessel that Admiral Janeway will command on a mission to rescue Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran) through a wormhole. This intriguing setup in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 presents significant questions for the storyline.

8 Will Prodigy Season 2 Link Up To Picard Season 1's Backstory?

Star Trek: Prodigy's first season, set in 2383, followed the adventures of the young heroes who took control of the USS Protostar and traveled from Tars Lamora in the Delta Quadrant to Earth, the headquarters of Starfleet and the United Federation of Planets. The season 2 clip of Star Trek: Prodigy indicates that not much time has passed since the conclusion of season 1. Dal, Rok-Tahk, Jankom Pog, Zero, and Murf are still striving to be accepted into Starfleet Academy, with Jankom receiving some grooming and all the kids wearing various Starfleet Cadet uniforms.

However, the 2380s are a tumultuous period in the Star Trek universe, as revealed in the backstory of season 1 of Star Trek: Picard. The Romulan evacuation is already in progress due to the impending supernova of their sun, with Admiral Jean-Luc Picard leading the rescue mission that the Federation will later abandon. In 2385, a devastating attack by androids on Mars results in the death of 92,000 people and prompts the Federation to prohibit all synthetic life forms. Depending on the duration of its own timeline, season 2 of Star Trek: Prodigy may touch upon these events.

7 What Is The Doctor's First Name?

6 Did Gwyn Make It To Solum?

The Doctor slyly refers to Admiral Janeway as Kathryn when speaking to the Protostar kids, resembling a callback to an earlier interaction in Star Trek: Voyager. At that time, Captain Janeway remarked, "I didn't know we were on a first-name basis." Nevertheless, this raises the question: Has The Doctor acquired a first name since then? In Star Trek: Voyager, The Doctor experimented with various names and identities, with the EMH from the future timeline in the series finale opting for the name Joe. Hopefully, The Doctor's chosen first name in Star Trek: Prodigy is more fitting than Joe.

It is hoped that Gwyn (played by Ella Purnell) has now become the "Queen of Solum." In the season 1 finale of Star Trek: Prodigy, Gwyndala made the decision not to join her friends in applying for Starfleet Academy. Instead, she chose to visit Solum, the home planet of her species known as the Vau N'Akat, in an attempt to promote peace with the Federation during the critical period before the disastrous First Contact made by Starfleet. However, it remains unknown whether Gwyn has safely arrived on Solum and what her fate holds in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2.

5 Will Asencia Return In Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2?

4 Will Janeway & Voyager-A Rescue Captain Chakotay?

Asencia, also known as The Vindicator, remains at large in an undisclosed location within the galaxy. She is among the group of a hundred Vau N'Akat, who embarked on a time-travel journey to the past with the sole purpose of seeking vengeance on Starfleet. In the late 24th century, Asencia arrived and assumed the identity of a Trill Starfleet Officer aboard the USS Dauntless, infiltrating Admiral Janeway's mission to locate the missing USS Protostar. Although Asencia managed to evade capture at the conclusion of Star Trek: Prodigy season 1, the possibility of her return is ever-present. It is conceivable that Asencia awaits Starfleet's attempt to utilize the wormhole and enter Solum in the 25th century, with intentions of hitching a ride back to her place of origin alongside the Vau N'Akat's Vindicator agenda.

The core adventure of Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 revolves around the mission to rescue Captain Chakotay. Chakotay, who was the original Captain of the USS Protostar, had planned to return to the Delta Quadrant and rectify the consequences of USS Voyager's journey back to Earth. However, the Protostar unexpectedly time-traveled to Solum 52 years into the future, where Chakotay and his crew fell into the hands of the Vau N'Akat, a group that despises Starfleet. Although Chakotay managed to send the Protostar back to the 24th century to prevent it from falling into the Vau N'Akat's control, he has remained a captive ever since. Admiral Janeway's endeavor to save her beloved Chakotay is bound to be a complex and challenging mission.

3 Does Voyager-A's Crew Have More Surprise Star Trek Returns?

The return of the Doctor brings up an interesting question: will any other familiar faces from Star Trek: Voyager join Admiral Janeway's crew in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2? It's possible that Voyager-A could also include Commander Tuvok (Tim Russ), Lt. Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill), Lt. B'Elanna Torres (Roxann Dawson), or even Harry Kim (Garrett Wang) – who hopefully has been promoted from Ensign. Both Tuvok and Paris have made appearances in Star Trek: Lower Decks, and there were plans to introduce Captain Kim in Star Trek: Picard season 3, although this didn't happen. However, since Star Trek: Prodigy has always been a sequel to Star Trek: Voyager, season 2 might deliver on that promise in an even more significant way.

2 Will Voyager-A Get Lost In The Wormhole?

Could history repeat itself despite the new Lamarr Class Voyager-A not being the original vessel? Just like Captain Janeway's Intrepid Class USS Voyager which got lost in the Delta Quadrant for 7 years, Voyager-A might face a similar destiny. Upon traveling through the wormhole created by the destruction of the USS Protostar, it would be quite ironic if Admiral Janeway's Voyager-A ended up trapped 52 years in the future, specifically in the year 2435, which is approximately 34 years after Star Trek: Picard season 3. Furthermore, this future timeline would undoubtedly be hostile.

1 Will Star Trek: Prodigy Season 2 Find A New Streaming Home?

Star Trek: Prodigy, the popular animated series, has left fans wondering about its future streaming home and the release date for the next 20 episodes. Despite its cancellation by Paramount+ in June 2023, season 2 is still in production and being actively pitched to other streaming services. Kevin and Dan Hageman, the show's creators, have expressed optimism, stating that they are "99% certain" that a new streaming distributor will be found for all 40 episodes of seasons 1 and 2, and potentially for future seasons. With the exciting developments in Star Trek: Prodigy season 2 and the unanswered questions it presents, fans eagerly await its release, hopefully in the near future.
