Star Trek: 10 Things You Need To Know About The Lost Era

...I'm far more distracted by a different discovery: Georgiou is standing with a young Rachel Garrett (Kacey Rohl).

That's how, in his article 'The Future of Star Trek…' on 27 March 2024, senior entertainment writer for Variety Adam B. Vary dropped the plasma bombshell of news that the Lost Era will (finally!) be hitting the screen in its own right. We've already done a full breakdown of the article but suffice it to reiterate here that it appears Garrett will be more of an Easter Egg for fans than central to the plot. The rest, however, will surely be Lost Era history for the making.

Captain Garrett and the Enterprise-C also featured prominently in the Lost Era novels. The fourth book in the series, Well of Souls, set in 2336, is dedicated to them. Garrett also appeared in the previous installment The Art of the Impossible (alongside the likes of Colonel Worf and Curzon Dax). Set between 2328 and 2346, that novel covers everything up to and just beyond the Battle of Narendra III which we first learnt about in Yesterday's Enterprise.

Garrett died in an alternate version of 2366, as did and had (most of) the crew of the Enterprise-C back in 2344, thus preventing (another) war with the Klingons. There is alternate Yar and daughter Sela to consider, of course, but they are practically a lost epoch unto themselves!
