Children of the Comet - Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Children of the Comet (Teaser)

While on a survey mission, the USS Enterprise discovers a comet is going to strike an inhabited planet. They try to re-route the comet, only to find that an ancient alien relic buried on the comet’s icy surface is somehow stopping them. As the away team try to unlock the relic’s secrets, Pike and Number One deal with a group of zealots who want to prevent the USS Enterprise from interfering.

This audio is a short sample of a much longer discussion that Clay and I had about the Star Trek: Strange New World’s second episode, “Children of the Comet”.
