“Calypso” SHORT TREK Teaser Hints at the 33rd Century

˙

The second Star Trek: Discovery short debuts November 8 on CBS All Access and Space, and today we have our first (somewhat) extended look at “Calypso.”

This new Star Trek: Short Trek, starring Aldis Hodge as a new Trek character called Craft, the story depicts him awaking “onboard a deserted ship, and his only companion and hope for survival is an A.I. computer interface.”

In the new teaser released first through IGN today, there’s an unexpected twist: the Federation starship Craft finds himself on isn’t just abandoned — but it’s also apparently 1,000 years forward in time from the era of Star Trek: Discovery, a point in time far in the future of nearly all other elements of Star Trek storytelling to date.

The Crossfield-class starship depicted in the teaser does seem to be the USS Discovery, but there’s no sign of how the ship got 1,000 years ahead in time.

Is the dusty ship “our” Discovery, a copy kicked out of the mycelial network, or perhaps some kind of simulation — and what does this mean for Craft, the Federation, and the galaxy at large?

We’ll find out on Thursday, November 8 when “Calypso” — written by Michael Chabon (story by Sean Cochran and Chabon), and directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi — airs at 9PM ET on Space and 9:30PM on CBS All Access.
