Star Trek: Prodigy

Star Trek : Prodigyis far more than just a religious successor toStar Trek : Voyager , as the reanimate show serves as a comparatively subdued sequel to the 1990s spinoff , and the former is full of detail that imposingly pay up homage to the latter . As well as severalStar Trek : Voyagercharacters returning inStar Trek : Prodigy , there are other more pernicious nod to the adventures of Captain Janeway(Kate Mulgrew ) and her crew aboard the USS Voyager - one of which is a direct canonical reference toStar Trek : Voyager ’s conclusion .

Mulgrew played her ship ’s unfearing drawing card throughoutall 7 season ofStar Trek : Voyager . Janeway ’s gang ’s tenacious and dangerous journey habitation was fill up with strange goings - on that tick almost every box in the sci - fi TV category . TheStar Trek : Voyagercastwas rarely expose to time locomotion , although they did have a handful of time - bending storyline . Star Trek : Voyager ’s " Endgame " brought the show to its finis with just such an adventure , andStar Trek : Prodigyquietly acknowledge one ofVoyagerfinale ’s smallest predictionsabout Starfleet ’s time to come .

Starfleet’s Combadges In Star Trek: Prodigy Match Future Janeway’s From “Endgame”

Admiral Janeway in “Endgame” had a never-before-seen combadge design

Starfleet uniformsandcombadges are often earned run average - dependent inStar Trek , although they can and do also differ between ships . The Starfleet uniform inStar Trek : Prodigyare , understandably , a unequaled design . However , the officers ' combadge design in the show first appear onscreen in 2001 . When an alternate version of Admiral Janeway travels back from the future tense to change story in " Endgame , " her combadge conception differs from that of her temporal similitude and the rest of the Voyager work party . bright , Star Trek : Prodigyhas brought back the design , establishing Future Janeway ’s combadge as the standard in the long time that espouse " Endgame . "

Star Trek : Prodigycould merely have kept a more recognisable design in romp , as the show only takes place five years after " Endgame , " and combadges are n’t always updated quite so often .

Star Trek : Prodigy ’s Janeway wear the same badge as her future ego from " Endgame " is an excellent piece of rooter service . The show could easily have ignoredStar Trek : Voyager ’s predictionand amount up with its own design for the Starfleet combadges . Alternatively , Star Trek : Prodigycould just have kept a more recognizable design in bid , as the show only takes place five class after " Endgame , " and combadges are n’t always update quite so often . Future Janeway was also much older than Mulgrew ’s eccentric inProdigy , so the enfranchisement still had a while until it had to acknowledge the badge change .

Star Trek: Prodigy’s New Combadges Could Be The Result Of A Causality Paradox

Future Janeway’s badge now never existed (& yet inspired a design in the past?)

The combadges inStar Trek : Prodigyare a small bit of a headland - scratcher . In the original timeline , that Future Janeway travel back from , the badges will have organically been redesigned over time , with no intervention or influence from other point in theStar Trektimeline . That perhaps is n’t the case now , thanks to Future Janeway ’s intervention . After her worldly handling , the first time the combadge design evince up from a chronological standpoint is in " Endgame , " rather than in Future Janeway ’s native time . So , Prodigy ’s combadges could be tell to have been inspired by a invention that never actually be .

Although Robert Picardo is most known for playing the EMH aboard the USS Voyager , he has portrayed other version of the EMH Mk I through the class .

It ’s possible Future Janeway ’s combadge design was roll out across Starfleet in testimonial to her . While this would mean softly lionize the Temporal Prime Directive , Present - Day Janeway would likely have enough pull to convince Starfleet to do so . instead , one theory could avoid the paradox altogether . The new combadge design may have already been prepared and was about to be put into fighting utilisation in " Endgame . " BecauseStar Trek : Prodigyis set so presently afterStar Trek : Voyager ’s finale , the changeover between badge may have been almost immediate , which would explain why Future Janeway had the same one .
