From what I see on the internet, it's going to be set during 2150ish, during a war between humans and Romulans. In the original timeline, that's right about the time of the first warp ships. I'm not sure how I'll feel about that, as I found Enterprise it lacking compared to TNG or Voyager because of it's more primitive ship and technology. No transporters, no holodecks, and forget about trying to outrun or overpower an enemy. It also limits the cast to humans and vulcans, and limits the enemies to Romulans. No Klingons, Borg, Q, androids... all of which tended to be my favorite species. That also means that there can't be anything super surprising, many times Data was ordered to search all of Starfleet's records to events similar to [insert anything here.] I too wonder if they're going to start a new timeline and ignore the events that unfolded "after" it.Ryan_m_b said:It will be interesting to find out if the series will be in the old Star Trek universe or the movie reboot.

Ryan_m_b said:I'd like the new series to be after voyager (thus having QS-drive and other cool tech) but the reboot with the films and the complication off all the post voyager books makes it seem very unlikely.
Why does warp destroy subspace? I don't remember that from the shows, or the few books I've read.
Bah!MacRudi said:TNG Season 7 episode 9
After this Episode they have to drive with only WARP 5.
[ref: Trek nerds extraordinaire!]Warp speeds above warp 5 were routinely used after 2370, without mention of the harmful effects, suggesting a solution was found, even though it was not mentioned on-screen. (Star Trek Encyclopedia 2nd ed., p. 187) See also: Variable geometry pylon. As the "speed limit" probably also limited potential future storylines, it seems that the concept was quietly done away with, shortly into the next season. Brannon Braga has noted that, "When you limit warp drive, the rug is being pulled out from under Star Trek." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 294)
Ryan_m_b said:Given that the issue was never mentioned in DS9 or Voyager explicitly or otherwise, nor in any of the 10 or so post-voyager books I've read I think we can safely say it would be ignored by future writers. Maybe they'll have a throwaway line stating that clean warp drives were invented and/or the damage wasn't as bad as predicted.
MacRudi said:In Voyager they said, that they have solved the problem. But WARP speed is not fast enough to fly into other galaxies

"Star Trek, the 6th generation" refers to a hypothetical continuation or reboot of the popular science fiction franchise, Star Trek. It is not an official term or title used by the creators of the franchise.
As of now, there are no plans for a 6th generation of Star Trek. The most recent installment, "Star Trek: Picard", premiered in January 2020. It is unknown if or when a 6th generation may be developed.
Again, there is currently no official 6th generation of Star Trek in development. However, if a new installment were to be created, it is likely that it would involve a new cast and crew, as has been the case with previous generations.
It is impossible to say for certain, as there is no official 6th generation in the works. However, the creators of the franchise have been known to explore different timelines and parallel universes in previous installments, so it is possible that a 6th generation could do the same.
If a 6th generation were to be developed, it is likely that it would stay true to the core themes and values of the original series, which center around exploration, diversity, and the human experience. However, as with any new installment, there may be updates and changes to keep the franchise fresh and relevant.
