We could be about to study the reply to one among Star Trek‘s best mysteries. Like all nice sci-fis, Star Trek is as a lot about questions as it’s about solutions: the Enterprise’s first mission assertion was at all times about exploration, however exploration isn’t essentially about eradicating house for religion. Which means leaving open sure mysteries, and most Star Trek reveals have ended with one thing unresolved. The only tends to be “what comes subsequent”? What occurred to the Founders after Deep Area 9? What grew to become of the Borg after Picard Season 3? What precisely are the Q as much as? Or Wesley Crusher, for that matter?
And arguably the largest of these tales issues what occurred to Benjamin Sisko after the top of Deep Area 9. Within the present’s 1999 finale, “What You Go away Behind,” the commander sacrificed his bodily kind within the Fireplace Caves of Bajor to cease the Pah-wraiths, changing into a non secular entity with the Prophets within the wormhole. Earlier than vanishing, he seems to his spouse Kasidy Yates, promising to return “sometime.” Whether or not he did has remained an virtually romantic thriller, however the next Star Trek show, Starfleet Academy is lastly going to have interaction with the query. Hidden within the present’s first trailer, we see Kerrice Brooks’ Sam in entrance of a show that reads ‘The Destiny of Benjamin Sisko: Confronting the unexplainable. The destiny of Benjamin Sisko, Emissary of the Prophets. Captain Sisko’s destiny: Did he die within the Fireplace Caves of Bajor? Did he reside on within the Celestial Temple?’
Sisko’s Destiny Could Nicely Be Revealed in Starfleet Academy
It will appear that Sisko’s destiny has change into a part of Starfleet Academy’s curriculum; and the suggestion that his destiny stays unknown within the thirty second century would appear to counsel that he didn’t return to his spouse. However wouldn’t a lesson that merely says “we don’t know, really” be a wasted lesson for cadets? Crucially, there’s extra of a touch that we’ll study extra of Sisko’s story, as Starfleet Academy’s govt producer Noga Landau instructed ScreenRant lately:
“I believe we’ve honored every little thing that’s come earlier than us, the 60 years of legacy that got here earlier than us in so many various methods. One is with the folks we’ve introduced to hitch these superb people. We now have Robert Picardo, who’s taking part in The Physician, the identical Physician from Voyager. We now have a number of forged members becoming a member of us from Discovery. And you understand, if you have a look at the wall of heroes in our atrium, our big set, you’ll see us honoring so most of the individuals who got here earlier than us, who confirmed us what heroism is, and who confirmed us what the values of Starfleet are.
And there’s additionally mysteries. Be careful for Benjamin Sisko! We get to do some actually cool stuff that hasn’t been executed in a very long time, that I believe actually honors the followers who’ve been ready to see what occurs. So we positively know who we’re and the shoulders that we’re standing on at this time.”
That final half sounds loads like we’ll get to see the present really deal with Sisko’s destiny and his future past the top of Deep Area 9. It doesn’t really feel like he’ll return (as nice as that may be), however we’ve a interval of 700 years between his disappearance and when Starfleet Academy is ready, so there may be greater than a small likelihood that he dropped in for visits. Even Wesley Crusher did that.
