  So these kids will be going out in the galaxy on real missions before they’ve even graduated. I love the enterprising spirit that shows.

  Say, have they revealed the name of the ship yet?

    I can see going on simple missions as part of their training in their final years.

    I think that kind of happened in the kelvin movie and I forget exactly the plot, it something similar happened in prodigy.

      We’ve definitely seen cadets serving on ships a few times, and The Wrath of Khan featured a training voyage (though they didn’t seem to be going to anywhere in particular).

      So I agree there’s precedent. I was really just stretching for a way to cheekily suggest the name.

      Ah, so I just missed it. There goes my little theory.

    It seems like doctors. 4 years of classes, 4 years of hands on residency in hospitals.
