#StarTrekProdigy Spoilers for S2E4! Yes, that is ME teaching Temporal Mechanics 101! Writing and teaching are my two greatest passions in this universe, so to get to be a Ms Frizzle/Science Guy-like educator AT STARFLEET ACADEMY is beyond an honor. I love this show with my deepest soul. I always had fun working with the writers in both seasons, and I appreciate them all letting my little Voyager-obsessed freak flag fly. Of course I also want to single out Keith Sweet II who wrote episode 4 and is one of the best humans. I'll write more about this timey-wimey season and its science in the upcoming days but I want to give folks more time to get through the show. Hopefully this didn't spoil anything major for you. With my whole heart, THANK YOU all for your love and support. Trek family forever. P.S. How did I get into this universe? My favorite theory is that I'm a Q (an "omnitemporal being") or a Lanthanite (like Pelia), but I also like the idea that at some point I'll pull a Dr Gillian Taylor and get taken to the future!

No way!!!! I love watching prodigy with my son, he’s 8. I was trying to explain it to him after episode 3 last night. Can’t wait to tell him I know the woman who is teaching us/ Del❤️
