The Captain Kathryn Janeway hologram clearly expected to find a Federation crew to train. Instead, she finds six aliens who’ve never even heard of the Alpha Quadrant. And yet here they are, in charge of the USS Protostar. While the hologram must also control the necessary ship’s functions for survival, can she also train a small group of kids to become a great crew? Watch Star Trek Prodigy‘s Hologram Janeway assess the situation in the clip below.:

Some of this begs a question, though. If this hologram is as fully interactive as, say, Star Trek: Voyager‘s original Doctor, is she really Janeway? By the end of his show’s run, the Doctor was certainly no longer Lewis Zimmerman, the man on whom his template was based. So there’s a very good chance that by the end of this mission, the AI will not be Janeway in any real sense at all. Fortunately, she will retain Kate Mulgrew’s voice, so she’ll always be worth watching, no matter what.
