Of course exploring subspace should be adults only. Can you imagine how irresponsible it would be to hand a Starfleet ship to a bunch of half trained kids?

New series idea!
I remember there being something like this already. The final mission happens as they say “this is the final training for you”. The enemy (aliens) behave differently than expected in this final simulation because they are not immediately aggressive and are waiting while defending their location, but the child successfully eliminates them. And later learns that was the actual aliens and not the simulation. And the aliens were just trying to find a place and protect their new generation, or sth.
I think that was Ender’s Game.
Yup, looks like that movie. Thanks, I didn’t remember the name.
The book is much better. Translating genius to the screen is difficult at best, and they (the director and producers,) didn’t seem to understand the objective.
The first one was great, the rest of them not so much
The 2nd one was pretty good too. 3 and 4 went kinda off the rails. But then the Bean series was interesting again.
In the books, they didn’t understand we were individuals at first, and when they did they were horrified. They were never going to send a third wave, they wanted to find a way to communicate, but humanity just kept cutting a swath to the home world where all the queens lived.
By the final battle, they had managed to connect with Ender, but he was a warped child genius collapsing under the pressure. In the end, they basically accepted their fate out of guilt, and left a baby queen imprinted with their monitors hidden in stasis on one of the colony worlds they had taken
Star Trek Prodigy.
And it’s bloody brilliant.
It was an accident rather than intentional, but this matches Warframe lore.
Imagine having to make up an entire series of math lectures just to cover up your search history.
Body writing and puppy play is the only way to properly experience mathematics!

If you’ll excuse me, I have to go try that.
Or it’s just a Star Trek reference.
