Just like for Season 2, the newest season of Star Trek: Discovery is getting an updated opening title sequence to reflect the upcoming storyline — and ahead of tomorrow’s Season 3 premiere, the new opening is available for you to watch now!

Along with a number of new images — including a group of funky-looking robots, updated 32nd century Starfleet badges, and a futuristic phaser weapon — the new title sequence also features a wireframe render of the time-travel wormhole that carried Discovery to the future.
The generic female form, seen from the lips down, is now clearly actress Sonequa Martin-Green, and we also get a look at the ship piloted by Cleveland “Book” Booker, the Nautilus, which Burnham slams into after exiting her time-travel wormhole.
Seen as green in Season 1 and Season 2, the floating dilithium crystals that orbit the Discovery in the opening seconds are now colored red in the Season 3 titles — perhaps a change that will be connected to this season’s new adventure?
We’ll find out when Star Trek: Discovery debuts tomorrow with “That Hope is You, Part 1.”
