Starfleet Academy explores the mystery of Sisko in Deep Space Nine’s finale

Starfleet Academybreaks the mold of Star Trek shows by focusing on students studying to join Starfleet in San Francisco, rather than the elite crew of a starship exploring the galaxy. But even as it forges a new path, it also celebrates the franchise’s history. That dichotomy is on full display in episode 5, “Series Acclimation Mil,” which follows a student working on a school project on the groundbreaking ’90s series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
