Like San Diego Comic Con and virtually all other in-person fan events this year, the annual New York Comic Con celebration set for October was cancelled — but as that convention moves to the online space, the Star Trek Universe panel that’s been held for the last several years has gone digital with it.

On October 8 12 PM ET (9AM ET), the one-two punch of Star Trek: Lower Decks and Star Trek: Discovery will beam to the virtual NYCC stage as the season finale of the animated series rolls out — and as the Season 3 premiere of Discovery will be just days away — to focus on the latest behind-the-scenes news from each show.

Here’s the official announcement, released by CBS today:

CBS ALL ACCESS UNVEILS NEW YORK COMIC CON LINEUP

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Sept. 16, 2020 – CBS All Access, ViacomCBS’ digital subscription video on-demand and live streaming service, and CBS Television Studios invite fans to enter the “Star Trek” universe and be the first to experience the upcoming limited event series THE STAND during New York Comic Con’s Metaverse, taking place virtually Oct. 8-11 at YouTube.com/NYCC and FindtheMetaverse.com.

Panels will include a back-to-back block of “Star Trek” programming to kick off opening day of New York Comic Con’s Metaverse on Thursday, Oct. 8, featuring cast and producers from STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY and surprise guests, plus the inaugural panel for cast and producers of the highly anticipated upcoming limited event series THE STAND on Friday, Oct. 9.

Thursday, Oct. 8 at 12:00 PM, ET/9:00 AM, PT: STAR TREK UNIVERSE

Exclusive Conversations with Casts of STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS + STAR TREK: DISCOVERY and SURPRISE GUESTS

The beloved panel returns to New York Comic Con with a special virtual edition, featuring exclusive back-to-back conversations with casts and producers from the “Star Trek” universe on CBS All Access, alongside a few special surprise guests.

Join the creator of STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS, Mike McMahan, and series voice cast for a special edition of CBS All Access’ official “Star Trek” after-show, “The Ready Room,” as they dive into the season one finale with host Wil Wheaton. Voice cast appearing include Tawny Newsome, Jack Quaid, Noël Wells, Eugene Cordero, Dawnn Lewis, Jerry O’Connell, Fred Tatasciore and Gillian Vigman.

Be the first to learn the latest about STAR TREK: DISCOVERY before season three premieres on Thursday, Oct. 15, exclusively on CBS All Access. Join series stars Sonequa Martin-Green, Doug Jones, Anthony Rapp, Mary Wiseman and Wilson Cruz; new cast members David Ajala, Blu del Barrio and Ian Alexander; and series co-showrunners and executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Michelle Paradise, for an exclusive conversation on what’s in store for the U.S.S. Discovery crew. Moderated by Sarah Rodman of Entertainment Weekly.

We’ll be paying attention during the live event, of course, and will feature running commentary on our Twitter feed with a follow-up recap of the event to bring you all the latest news and reveals that those of you who can’t watch live may miss.

Along with Discovery and Lower Decks coverage, it certainly seems like we’re going to learn more — perhaps a lot more — about the forthcoming Star Trek: Prodigy kids’ show headed for Nickelodeon next year, as several writers from the series (Aaron Waltke, Julie Benson, and the showrunning Hageman brothers) strongly hinted on social media that we should be watching the event.

If you’re able to ‘attend’ the event on October 8, you’ll be able to watch at online at  YouTube.com/NYCC and FindtheMetaverse.com.
