Star Trek: Picard - 16 Huge Details Everyone Missed In The Trailer
14. Old Uniforms, New Com Badge
A small blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment as Picard approaches Starfleet Command, but it appears as if they've ditched the Grey/Black overalls and gone back to the more vivid and colourful Yellow/Blue/Red look. This adds a real slice of familiarity for long-term viewers, as well as echoes of The Next Generation TV series.
The more interesting element of this is, of course, the combadge. A classic piece of Star Trek iconography that, in universe, serves as a communication device, universal translator, and location tracker. Pretty sure they made them explode in an episode of Voyager as well. That's had a refresh, contrasting to the shot of Picard's old badge in the beginning of the trailer.
One for the real nerds amongst you, the combages on display look an awful lot like the design that is routinely featured in future versions of the prime timeline. It's been seen during the final episodes of both Voyager and the Next Generation, both of which featured events taking place around the years that Picard is set.
