Well, gang, here we are. Captain Burnham says, “Let’s fly,” and while it has taken since September 24, 2017 to get to this point, time and her journey have flown, indeed. This week ends Star Trek: Discovery with its tenth episode of the season, “LIfe, Itself.”
Trapped inside a mysterious alien portal that defies familiar rules of time, space, and gravity, Captain Burnham must fight Moll – and the environment itself – in order to locate the Progenitors’ technology and secure it for the Federation. Meanwhile, Book puts himself in harm’s way to help Burnham survive, and Rayner leads the U.S.S. Discovery in an epic winner-takes-all battle against Breen forces.
“Life, Itself” was written by Kyle Jarrow and series co-showrunner Michelle Paradise. Series regular Olatunde Osunsanmi directed. Jarrow wrote last season’s “The Examples.”
The season and series finale drops this Thursday, May 30. In the meantime, check out two images from “Life, Itself,” and stay tuned for a new episode of the Daily Star Trek News podcast, in which we’ll look back at all things Discovery. Syfy Sista Subrina Wood will be joining us!
