‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Showunners Talk 32nd Century Setting And How The Ship Is Part Of The School

So these kids will be going out in the galaxy on real missions before they’ve even graduated. I love the enterprising spirit that shows.
Say, have they revealed the name of the ship yet?
I can see going on simple missions as part of their training in their final years.
I think that kind of happened in the kelvin movie and I forget exactly the plot, it something similar happened in prodigy.
We’ve definitely seen cadets serving on ships a few times, and The Wrath of Khan featured a training voyage (though they didn’t seem to be going to anywhere in particular).
So I agree there’s precedent. I was really just stretching for a way to cheekily suggest the name.
It seems like doctors. 4 years of classes, 4 years of hands on residency in hospitals.
USS Athena
Ah, so I just missed it. There goes my little theory.
