Star Trek: Discovery began as a Star Trek prequelset in the 23rd century, but in season 3, the crew time-traveled 900 years into the future. That series ended in 2024, and Starfleet Academy is a direct follow-up with a few crossover characters. In the 32nd century, the United Federation of Planets is still rebuilding a century after being shattered by The Burn, a disaster that cut off warp travel and destroyed most of the Federation fleet. Restarting the Federation’s mission of exploration and diplomacy is key to its recovery. That involves reopening Starfleet Academy after more than 100 years, with classes taught both on Earth in San Francisco and aboard a new starship, the USS Athena.
