There may be one giant query that wasn’t replied in season 1 — is the Undertaking nonetheless round and, if that is so, who is flying it?
Undertaking-D — the send Picard and his team fly in all seven seasons of Star Trek: The Subsequent Technology — was once destroyed towards the top of Star Trek: Generations. The Undertaking-E was once presented in Star Trek: First Touch and survived till the top of the general TNG-era movie, Star Trek: Nemesis. Picard‘s first season takes position twenty years after the occasions of Nemesis and there is no point out of a present Undertaking. We do not know if the send remaining observed in Nemesis continues to be in provider, if it is been changed with a more moderen Undertaking, or if that send name has been retired for some reason why.
The one clue can also be discovered within the 2019-20 prequel comedian e-book mini-series Star Trek: Picard — Countdown. Going down all through the evacuation of Romulus — prior to the Federation pulls out and Picard resigns – Star Trek: Picard — Countdown #1 features a scene through which Picard and Geordi L. a. Forge proportion a cryptic change concerning the Undertaking‘s new captain however, whoever it’s, they are now not discussed via name all through the dialog or for the remainder of the collection. Like maximum Trek comics, Countdown is not regarded as canon. Then again, it kind of feels odd to drop this type of large trace and fail to refer to it once more except it has some bearing at the display.
