Great episode... and they hit on some really interesting things we didn't get to when we interviewed Mike. I am liking this
#StarTrekUnited
idea a little more every day. (Plus it was fun to hear about the Enterprise episode with Dean Stockwell.)

Bob here. I just can't shake "Terrarium." It was so good, and the ending completely broke my heart. I've griped about being asked to empathize with villains, but this was an exception. Definitely one of my all time favorite

episodes. Thank you to everyone who brought it to life.

"Terrarium" was one of my favorite episodes of Strange New Worlds, with an empathetic take on a classic TOS story. It would've been great without the TOS reference but still, it was a pure Star Trek story and utterly heartbreaking. Can't say more without spoilers.
