"Ad Astra Per Aspera" is also the state motto of the state of Kansas in the United States. Kansas fought a long struggle against pro-slavery forces from neighboring Missouri during the period leading up to the Civil War (and during the Civil War) including several terrorist attacks by groups like Quantrell's Raiders. So the motto symbolizes reaching "the stars" (a higher place, a better life, our better selves) through "difficulties" that included directly fighting the forces that wanted to drag us down into fear, greed, evil, and the degradation of the human spirit. It's a very appropriate recruitment slogan for Star Fleet.
It is also funny that as the state with the motto "Ad Astra Per Aspera", Kansas is also home to the Cosmosphere, a Smithsonian associated Space Museum, in Hutchinson (NW of Wichita). It's the home of the Mercury Program's Liberty Bell 7, Gemini 10, and Apollo 13 CM Odyssey. It also exhibits authentic WWII German rocketry and various Soviet Space exhibits. It is an INCREDIBLE museum of space artifacts and is definitely worth a visit.
Finding out that you become the inspiration for your organisation generation's in the future has to br a humbling thing, but she still shows her appreciation to both Mariner and Boimler. That's why this is the greatest crossover in ST history!

I love how Number One gets offended at the thought of it being a "pinup poster" given Rebecca Romijn's early career as a model. Feels very meta there (also wonderful acting on Rebecca's part). Speaking of meta, having her husband playing Jack Ransom with him making lewd comments about her on the poster, def great meta! I will say though, the moment she learns she's become the poster-woman for Starfleet has become one of my favorite trek moments. From the drama she experienced with her court case and almost being kicked out of Starfleet for being an Illyrian, I imagine she was struggling with her relationship with Starfleet. So knowing that she was recognized to represent the ideals and best of Starfleet to recruit new officers is insanely validating for her, and it came at a time right when she needed it most.
In The Ready Room for this episode Jack Quaid talks about how he watched a bunch of Lower Decks episodes and worked to get a lot of Boimler's mannerisms in, including the run, the Section 31 power walk, and of course the Boimler scream.
I love Rebecca Romjin as "Number One" so much. This scene really makes me love the character of Una so much. She spent her entire life having to hide her true self...who she really was, for fear of being mistreated and not having a career. To go from being from a race of people who were shunned and ostracized, to fighting for her place in Starfleet...to finding out she's the literal poster girl (er, poster woman, thanks Boimler) used for Starfleet recruitment was just so touching...seeing it register to her...knowing she will touch the lives of so many in the future (not just for Illyrians, but all people) really made me tear-up. I love SNW so much (and Lower Decks).
Rebecca Romijn was a very famous swimsuit model in the 90s before she transitioned into acting. She was on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, and stuff like that.
@@503leafyMultiple times. They really amped it at the end, with Ransom seeing the poster and commenting on how hot Una is. Ransom is voiced by Rebecca's husband Jerry O'Connell.
That was the first of a "double whammie" Boimler recieved in that scene. He also got a "Live Long and Prosper" from Mr. Spock before transporting down to the planet.
I find it funny that Mariner, someone who doesn't exactly shy away from discussing sexual and vulgar topics would be confused by the idea of a pin-up poster. Let's be honest, if she could get one of Jennifer, she would.
I interpreted it as, the phrase "pin-up" doesn't exist in her time. It's like when I say "keep on truckin'" and young people have no idea what I'm referring to.
its one thing to discuss sexual and vulgar topics -- its another to meet a man who has a poster of you near his bunk and you think he masturbates to that poster
It’s also hilarious, that these characters have already become so well beloved that we can ignore the fact that Tawny Newsome is 5‘10“ and Jack Quaid is 6’1”; totally out of proportions of their 2D character animations.
It really says something that a show that started as just a comedy Star Trek show ... can pull out some of the finest and most real Star Trek moments out of the entire franchise. You have a gag running through the episode about the poster ... and then the reveal twist that Una is in fact the *literal* recruiting poster of Starfleet. That the Federation acknowledged her struggle for equality and how poorly she was treated by them in the future by pointing to said struggle as the core of what Starfleet is at its best. Probably thirty seconds of dialogue explaining it and Una being utterly stunned and beyond touched that her struggle in the present has been recognized by the future iteration of Starfleet in such a way... The idea that you could have a crossover between Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds and that it would have THAT impactful a moment ... these writers GET it. They really, really get it.
For those who don't know, Spock's pet sehlat features heavily in Ep 3 of 'Star Trek: the animated series', in which Spock is sent back in time through a mysterious portal.....
If you didn't know Ransom is her irl husband. Met him while waiting to meet una and chapel. He just popped out of nowhere and hung out with the needs. Genuinely wanted to meet everyone and visit. Was so nice.😂 I didn't realize he was the fat kid in "stand by me"
I never knew that they drew Lower Decks characters in the image of their voices. I am far too used to seeing the character and the voice being visually different.
From what I heard it wasn't actually intentional, it just kinda was. To be honest, most of us wouldn't have cared anyway. Animation is only meant to vaguely mirror reality.
They seemed to have done very little with Number One in season 1 just to give us that great cliffhanger. And then they followed that up with 2 great episodes. Very well done! 🤩
Now that i saw Mariner and Boimler back in the past, on the Enterprise, i kinda wish to see Pike and Spock in the future on Cerritos 😂 The crew would've fainted 🤣 Carol would loose her sh*t after she learnt that Mariner already know Pike and Spock 🤣 Same goes for Tendi and Rutherford 🤣
If they decide to do a reverse crossover (SNW to LD) I hope they include Lt. Ortegas going to the future. From this episode I feel she'd be right at home on the Cerritos as a lower decker.

The title of this video really confused me, because Ad Astra Per Aspera is the title of a Strange New Worlds episode from earlier the same season as this crossover episode, Those Old Scientists. Oh, now I really want to check out the 2019 movie Ad Astra! Greg Bryk as Captain Harr Karas (+ two uncredited women playing Orion extras) is the only Canadian actor in this Strange New Worlds episode local to its Toronto filming location, when all of the primary actors of Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds are American except for the Australian Jess Bush and the British Christine Chong. Greg Bryk has acted in some other films that co-star American actors filming in Toronto like The Incredible Hulk and Saw V, and Julie Benz and Carol Kane have another acting connection of Jawbreakers, before Julie acted with Greg in Saw V and Carol acted with Greg in Strange New Worlds. Ad Astra marks an interesting milestone for Greg Bryk's career because it is the first time he travels down from Toronto, Canada to act in a major film production in the United States. I am not sure what got him noticed for Ad Astra in Santa Clarita, California when he does not even go there, but it might be the fact that Liv Tyler acted with Greg Bryk once before in The Incredible Hulk.

"You're the literal postergirl slash woman for Starfleet." This wasn't just important after Una's trial, as in character development. This was important for the character as she fit into the franchise. Number One being omitted from Star Trek because of the corporate executives' demands was a travesty of the times, and even after "The Menagerie" aired and, following that, "The Cage" came out, very little grift was given to her as a character. Coming back and working her to being the very image of Starfleet was a testament to how important the character should have been in the history of Star Trek.
I wonder how I'd feel if it was me and a young Majell Barrett gave me that wink. Don't get me wrong, Mrs O'Connell is mighty sweet, but there's nothing like the original #1 even though she only appeared in the pilot...
Ad Astra Per Aspera is thousands of years old and was/is used by many institutions throughout the world. As a motto for Starfleet, I like the vulcan saying more "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations" Ad Astra Per Aspera is a bit too...serious? Grim?
J Q & R R playing at S U comics on a S T N G series. They DO need better writers, the displays are kewl, but the jagged ideals need quite the imporvements. so sayth a baby boomer watching an un paralled odd exchange tween series buffers.
Does anyone else think that it's kind of weird that Boimler is avoiding Una so... carefully? This man is a assman. He lives to kiss up to authority and people of higher standing. Why is Una the exception? Kind of feels like we are dealing with characters that could change the future (Boimler's future).
@@Synthonym for a guy with such a "clever sounding" name, you sure do lack vision. Have you ever seen the show? Have you seen the special even? In no moment does Boimler run away from anything or anyone on that ship. He has star trek figures of Spock, Kirk and even Pike maybe. He doesn't shy away from meeting someone he is emotionally attached to. Why Una? She is just a person on a poster. However I will say that you could be right and the writers of the episode are just dumb and didn't do this planning on purpose. There is the possibility that : This is just Boimler being a shy little boy running away from an attractive woman.

The title of this video really confused me, because Ad Astra Per Aspera is the title of a Strange New Worlds episode from earlier the same season as this crossover episode, Those Old Scientists. Oh, now I really want to check out the 2019 movie Ad Astra! Greg Bryk as Captain Harr Karas (+ two uncredited women playing Orion extras) is the only Canadian actor in this Strange New Worlds episode local to its Toronto filming location, when all of the primary actors of Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds are American except for the Australian Jess Bush and the British Christine Chong.
Greg Bryk has acted in some other films that co-star American actors filming in Toronto like The Incredible Hulk and Saw V, and Julie Benz and Carol Kane have another acting connection of Jawbreakers, before Julie acted with Greg in Saw V and Carol acted with Greg in Strange New Worlds. Ad Astra marks an interesting milestone for Greg Bryk's career because it is the first time he travels down from Toronto, Canada to act in a major film production in the United States. I am not sure what got him noticed for Ad Astra in Santa Clarita, California when he does not even go there, but it might be the fact that Liv Tyler acted with Greg Bryk once before in The Incredible Hulk.

I love how the both walk like cartoons
Per ardua, ad astra!
Ad Astra Per Aspera To the Stars Through Adversity it was the slogan of Apollo I
To be fair, I would also panic if i met Rebecca Romijn
he even walks like the comic
At none of them pulled a Sisko and got an autograph
Commander Chin-Riley should be honored to be the poster woman of Starfleet because she encouraged others to join Starfleet.
Spocks SELAAT, was on the 70's cartoon.😂😂😂😂😂
Boimler always seem to be on the verge of hyperventilation. 😂
Some of these comments remind me who Star Trek's greatest villain is: the fans.
"You're the literal postergirl slash woman for Starfleet."
This wasn't just important after Una's trial, as in character development. This was important for the character as she fit into the franchise. Number One being omitted from Star Trek because of the corporate executives' demands was a travesty of the times, and even after "The Menagerie" aired and, following that, "The Cage" came out, very little grift was given to her as a character. Coming back and working her to being the very image of Starfleet was a testament to how important the character should have been in the history of Star Trek.
Ad Astra Per Aspera ... Primus Aut Nullis (Battle of Buena vista.)
I wonder how I'd feel if it was me and a young Majell Barrett gave me that wink. Don't get me wrong, Mrs O'Connell is mighty sweet, but there's nothing like the original #1 even though she only appeared in the pilot...
Since she’s the poster girl for recruitment, Una is the most famous face in Starfleet?
So, will we get to see Captain Boimler when ST:Legacy comes to fruition?
Now, as for what happens on the holodecks based on that poster...
That's why they have to change the holodeck filters so often.
Or Scotty from Geordie.
She reminds me of Dax from Deep Space 9
I'm here for middle-aged Rebecca Romijn.
A pin-up. She is Rebecca Romaijn afterall.
You know what I can't get over?
The nagging feeling that my aunt is literally one of her.
Which one though? :P
girl the wink doesn't help your case
That actually wasn't a horrible episode. "it's a poster that is pinned up am...are we saying the same thing?" hahahaahahh
Isn’t it normally through hardship to the stars or Per ASPERA Ad Astra? Not the other way around.
To the stars, through hardship. (Also the state motto of Kansas?)
Per Ardua
sync off?

😂😂😂😂😂😂
Pin up 😋😋😋😋
Shouldn't it rather be? Per aspera ad astra.
Why doesn't Hughie just teleport home?
Ad Astra Per Aspera is thousands of years old and was/is used by many institutions throughout the world. As a motto for Starfleet, I like the vulcan saying more "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations"
Ad Astra Per Aspera is a bit too...serious? Grim?
It does make sense, since it is a poster of her saying her favorite latin phrase.

These guys sounds like star Trek lower decks crew?
They are, it's a crossover
J Q & R R playing at S U comics on a S T N G series. They DO need better writers, the displays are kewl, but the jagged ideals need quite the imporvements. so sayth a baby boomer watching an un paralled odd exchange tween series buffers.
This isn't Ad Astra Per Aspera. It's Those Old Scientists.
The title refers to the scene, not the episode
@@Synthonym Well, since I don't have access to the script, there's no way to know that. All the same, it was confusing.
@@larrysmith2638 You can look that up on Wikipedia or the Star Trek Wiki.
is it me, or is Jack Quaid the 24th century version of Sheldon Cooper?
Sino namang gwaping yan?
Does anyone else think that it's kind of weird that Boimler is avoiding Una so... carefully?
This man is a assman. He lives to kiss up to authority and people of higher standing. Why is Una the exception?
Kind of feels like we are dealing with characters that could change the future (Boimler's future).
I mean they literally covered it in the episode
@@Synthonym for a guy with such a "clever sounding" name, you sure do lack vision.
Have you ever seen the show? Have you seen the special even? In no moment does Boimler run away from anything or anyone on that ship. He has star trek figures of Spock, Kirk and even Pike maybe. He doesn't shy away from meeting someone he is emotionally attached to.
Why Una? She is just a person on a poster.
However I will say that you could be right and the writers of the episode are just dumb and didn't do this planning on purpose. There is the possibility that : This is just Boimler being a shy little boy running away from an attractive woman.
