We send off the crew of the USS Cerritos and salue the completion of the five-year mission of “Star Trek: Lower Decks.” This show expanded what “Star Trek” could be—in several dimensions. And yet it was also utterly, completely a “Star Trek” series. We try to find the special alchemy that brought it all together.

"Star Trek: Lower Decks"

Jason Snell with David J. Loehr, Moisés Chiullán, Scott McNulty and Joe Rosensteel
