Ok, at the risk of sounding like a filthy casual, it's only now when I'm digging into Memory Alpha that I realized we're finally getting visualization of what Pike was so miserable about in TOS the Cage. I was like, why does Rigel VII sound so familiar...

This is the kind of retcon I live for!!

I've been watching Trek since I was basically a baby but don't have anywhere near the depth of knowledge of most people posting here. We are still valid!

I like that the original away mission failing wasn't some weird magical thing - it was just a mission that went bad in a fairly mundane way.
