Character arcs are largely under wraps, but early footage has shown the return of reptilian bad guys the Gorn, and Pike, Uhura, La'an, and Chapel being turned into Vulcans. Fascinating. A fourth season of "Strange New Worlds" has already been confirmed by Paramount+, while "Starfleet Academy", a 32nd century-set "Discovery" spin-off, is also on the way.

He'll also have a new Doctor Who companion in the TARDIS, as Varada Sethu — who played a different role, Mundy Flynn, in "Boom" earlier this year — embarks on a series of adventures in space and time as Belinda Chandra. "Snowpiercer"'s Archie Panjabi is confirmed to play a Doctor Who villain, while former "EastEnders" and "Strictly Come Dancing" star Rose Ayling-Ellis will be "the lead in one episode," says showrunner Russell T.

That was a perfectly pitched "Star Trek" pastiche in which an embittered tech boss (played by Jesse Plemons) turned his colleagues (including "The Penguin"'s Cristin Milioti) into unwilling avatars in his total immersion spaceship simulation. Expect something significantly darker than "Galaxy Quest."

While the first two seasons have, at times, felt like a 20-episode exercise in scene-setting, by the end of Foundation season 2 this spectacular interstellar "Game of Thrones" (with added megalomaniac clones) was ready to explode into life. It's the sort of TV show that makes you crave a bigger TV set.

A recent spacecraft flyby over Mercury has experts believing that the planet closest to the sun has “frozen water” on its surface — and they’re excited to get a closer look in the years to come. The sixth BepiColombo mission, European Space Agency and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency — was able to examine a series of deep craters near Mercury’s north pole.

"Section 31" looks set to be "Trek"'s answer to James Bond, as Georgiou — now back in the 23rd century courtesy of the Guardian of Forever — is recruited to work for the Federation's best known secret organization.
