Fun episode. I lost track of all the references but I'm particularly delighted that they brought up the NX-01 and her crew, and that the NCC-1701 crew (what even comes after the dash?) is gushing over them, like we all are gushing over all the different Trek crews.
I deeply appreciated seeing some on-screen Enterprise love, because I feel like Enterprise gets a bum wrap.
To be fair, since it's been on it got an Easter egg reference in the Kelvin-verse and has been mentioned or referenced in most of the new shows from S1 of Dis on. Not only did they name drop Archer in that, they actually expanded on the MU episodes of Ent.
And let's not forget the NX-01 herself shows up onscreen in Picard Season 3.
Yep, I thought they may resuse the Star Ship museum asset from Pic then realised it probably didn't exist yet on SNW era.
The ship surely exists in this time so the asset could be used however the fleet museum as we saw it in PIC definitely did not so its asset could not. Canon is that it is the original Spacedock that was towed to its current location and converted into a museum. Problem is - where would they find an NX-01 at this time period? All the way back at Earth maybe? In the VOY finale, I believe, they said that Voyager was a museum piece in San Francisco but in the new timeline its at the museum we saw so maybe the ships were originally stored there on Earth or in orbit (or maybe over the ocean, I guess since SF doesn't really have space for whole starships to just sit around?) but were moved to the new location later (Athen Prime, if memory serves). I believe in "Relics" from TNG, it's said that a Constitution class was a museum in San Francisco so I guess that would add to it.
I read in a thread and heard on a podcast people saying they were worried that we would revisit the museum again and I shouted at the radio in my car "It doesn't exist yet!"
