The course of study will be tough, the instructors will be the best in their respective fields, and those who are admitted will live and study side by side with students of all species. Today we encourage those who share our dreams, goals and values to become a new generation of cadets as they take their first steps towards creating a bright future for us all. Ex Astris, Scientia!
As anticipated, the production of Starfleet Academy will begin in 2024, and will feature a group of young cadets who, under the guidance of strict instructors, will discover what it means to be a starfleet officer, also facing more common challenges , such as friendship, rivalry and first loves. From what has been anticipated, it seems that this series is aimed at a teenage audience, thus expanding the target audience of the franchise.
