The trailer for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 2 hints that Lt. Erica Ortegas (Melissa Navia) fought in Star Trek: Discovery's Klingon War. Strange New Worlds is a spinoff of Discovery, which changed eras and jumped 930 years forward to the 32nd century in season 3 after the wildly successful reintroduction of Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount), Lt. Spock (Ethan Peck), and Number One (Rebecca Romijn). Strange New Worlds has been boldly carrying on in Discovery's wake, chronicling the five-year mission of Captain Pike's USS Enterprise in the mid-23rd century.
Star Trek: Discovery season 1 centered on the Klingon War of 2256-2257. The conflict began at the Battle at the Binary Stars, and the instigation of the war led Commander Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) of the USS Shenzhou to commit mutiny in order to stop the Klingons. But the feared warrior race was intent on asserting their identity and sparked a devastating conflict with the United Federation of Planets. Thousands of Starfleet personnel and Federation citizens died before the Klingon War was ended by Burnham, the USS Discovery, and the Klingon L'Rell (Mary Chieffo), who became the first female Chancellor of the Klingon Empire upon the conclusion of the war.
