Now we know how Freeman ended up in charge of Starbase 80 in the alternate universe.
Loved seeing more of the Cetacean Ops crew, plus those ENT unis
Kinda confused by the ENT uniforms, since she said it hadn’t been updated since the 2260s, which is TOS era. Those uniforms were 100 years old even then!
My only theory is they were kind of as prolific as the TOS film uniforms and lasted into the 2240s and were getting rare but still seen occasionally in the 2260s.
