Because who doesn't love courtroom dramas and time travel?
The day is finally here! The second season of Strange New Worlds has arrived with the season premiere, "The Broken Circle." But we're already looking ahead as Paramount dropped a cargo bay's worth of new images and episode titles from the next two episodes of the season.
"The Broken Circle"
Ahead of the season premiere, the good folks at starship Paramount dropped a few more shots of today's episode.

“Ad Astra per Aspera”
Strange New Worlds' second episode of season two is now confirmed to be the highly anticipated trial of Number One, and without spoiling anything, this is one of the all-time great episodes of Star Trek and won't want to be missed.
The images also give us a name for the character Yetide Badaki is playing: Neera. Based on the conversation between Captain Pike and Una in 201 and a couple of the images below, it seems Neera is the person Pike traveled almost three days to see and represents Una during her court martial.

“Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow”
Images from the third episode of season two give us another look at what is a Kirk/La'an time travel piece. What could go wrong there? And is that Pelia...in a shack? It sure is.
