Hit the holo-books and don’t get caught in the turbolift without a hall pass when Paramount+'s "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy" opens the semester to present its promising collection of bright, ambitious cadets all trying to become officers to serve the Federation’s “peacekeeping and humanitarian armada.”
Delivered by showrunners Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau, this fresh spinoff of "Star Trek: Discovery" is set in the 32nd century and concerns the lives of six main candidates and the interstellar drama of their education aboard the teaching vessel USS Athena under the command of Captain Nahla Ake and her university staff.
