Fun episode. I lost track of all the references but I’m particularly delighted that they brought up the NX-01 and her crew, and that the NCC-1701 crew (what even comes after the dash?) is gushing over them, like we all are gushing over all the different Trek crews.

I deeply appreciated seeing some on-screen Enterprise love, because I feel like Enterprise gets a bum wrap.

To be fair, since it’s been on it got an Easter egg reference in the Kelvin-verse and has been mentioned or referenced in most of the new shows from S1 of Dis on. Not only did they name drop Archer in that, they actually expanded on the MU episodes of Ent.

And let’s not forget the NX-01 herself shows up onscreen in Picard Season 3.

Yep, I thought they may resuse the Star Ship museum asset from Pic then realised it probably didn’t exist yet on SNW era.
