This week's episode of Star Trek: Discovery is an exercise in duality as Starfleet and Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) find each other at odds at one another trying to do what's right.

This week's Star Trek: Discovery hinged on two storylines. First, Discovery's newest crew member in Adira (Blu del Barrio) comes on board from a very different earth from expected in the future.

Now that the third season of CBS All Access' Star Trek: Discovery has gotten the band back together (with Saru now commanding the bridge), it's time to find some answers as to why the Federation no longer exists in 3189 and what exactly happened that caused the Federation to be no more- replaced by something […]
Star Trek has some of the most eclectic storytelling in fiction. The irony behind much of its fan base is how rigid aspects of the series can be.
