Tomorrow brings the penultimate episode of Star Trek: Prodigy‘s lengthy first season, and today we’ve got an exclusive first look at a clip from “Supernova, Part 1” — where the young crew of the USS Protostar has to evade Admiral Janeway’s Dauntless while surrounded by a mighty Federation armada.
Dal and the gang finally made it to Federation territory in last week’s “Mindwalk,” only to find the last thing they wanted — a fleet of Starfleet vessels unknowingly within range of the dangerous Living Construct weapon aboard the Protostar, ready and waiting to infect the starships.
With Akira, Sovereign, Defiant, and Centaur-class ships circling them, the Protostar must outrun the Dauntless and the other vessels’ weapons — while Gwyn and Rok-Tahk must keep Dal from finding out that genetically-modified Augments like himself can’t join Starfleet service.
Check out this exclusive clip from “Supernova, Part 1” below:
In addition to this new clip, which for the first time illustrates the size disparity between the Protostar and those other well-known Starfleet designs — including the USS Centaur (NCC-42043) itself — we have several new images from this week’s episode to share.
SUPERNOVA, PART 1 — Surrounded by the Federation armada, the crew attempts to stop their ship from destroying all of Starfleet.
