Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Season 1 Finale "Rubincon" Preview

It all comes down to this. Here's a preview for the Season 1 finale of Paramount+'s Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, S01E10: "Rubinson."

It's all come down to this, folks. The season finale of Paramount+ and Showrunners/EPs Alex Kurtzman & Noga Landau's Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. Heading into S01E10: "Rubinson," it looks like Braka (Paul Giamatti) is holding all of the cards. Having cut off Athena from the Federation, it's up to Nahla (Holly Hunter) and a crew of cadets and instructors to pull off the impossible: free themselves from Braka's trap and save the Federation. Now that's a set-up for a season finale – and we have an official overview, images, trailer, and sneak peek for you to check out below:

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Season 1 Episode 10: "Rubincon" – When an old enemy resurfaces as an existential threat to the Federation, Nahla must outwit a vengeful foe with a personal vendetta against her — as our cadets and instructors undertake a dangerous, seemingly impossible, mission to save everyone and everything they hold dear.
