Star Trek: Discovery started in 2017, the creators of the new CBS All Access platform needed something else to fill the gaps in between ST:D seasons. So, before the announcement of Picard (and all of the other series that will follow), fans got Star Trek “Short Treks,” a series of mini-episodes set in the time of Discovery. Sometimes these stories tied into a current Discovery theme, and later, they would not.
