Star Trek: Discovery season 5 will be the show's last, and it will bow out in 2024 having contributed so many good things to the Star Trek franchise. Star Trek: Discovery season 5 promises to launch Captain Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) and the crew of the USS Discovery on a quest to find "the greatest treasure in the known galaxy." Discovery's climactic voyages are bound to continue to positively add to Star Trek's canon.
Discovery is the only Star Trek series to completely shift its setting in the Prime timeline. Originally a prequel set in the 23rd century, Discovery reset itself 930 years in the future in season 3. Discovery is also the first serialized Star Trek series made in the streaming era of prestige television. Controversial since its inception, Discovery nonetheless re-ignited the dormant Star Trek franchise, launching an entire universe of new series on Paramount+. When Discovery ultimately warps into the final frontier, it will leave Star Trek better than it found it. Disco's legacy will be one of progressive values and positive changes to Star Trek, as well as the following good things.
