While grappling with the fallout of her recent actions, and what her future might hold, Burnham agrees to represent the Federation in an intense debate about the release of politically sensitive - but highly valuable - Burn data.

Commentary

A name we first heard attached to a Vulcan ship in Enterprise now belongs to the Vulcan-Romulan homeworld: Ni'Var. The word was originally coined in the 1968 fanzine Spockanalia to mean “two forms,” and Leonard Nimoy later described it in his introduction to a collection of fan stories as “two who are one.” A fitting name for their new shared home.
