Star Trek: Picard

The series is set in 2399, 20 years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis (2002) (which was set in the year 2379). Using the TNG-based Stardate format, this would place the start of the series just after Stardate 76000.

In more than one episode, Commodore Oh is seen wearing sunglasses. Vulcans, having evolved on a harsh desert planet with very bright sunlight, have developed an inner eyelid to protect against bright light. However, Oh is revealed to be half Romulan, and Romulans developed sensitivity to light from evolving to live on the dark side of the planet Romulus.

The opening credits feature a piece of the sky cracking off and floating through various locations from Picard's life before finally used to reform Picard's profile.

The elements in the title sequence vary depending on the season and its events:

• The first season features a Borg cube and the planet Romulus.
• The second season features a Borg ship, a wormhole and hourglass, and the Borg Queen's silhouette.
