Why Klingons Look Different From Discovery To Strange New Worlds

The first two episodes of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 work like a dual premiere. Spock “borrows” the USS Enterprise to rescue La’an and prevent war with the Klingons. Meanwhile, Captain Pike recruits an Illyrian lawyer to defend his First Officer, Una Chin-Riley, from serious criminal charges related to genetic modification, something also outlawed by the Klingons. In fact, genetic modification can explain why the Klingons in Star Trek: Discovery look so different from the ones who show up in Strange New Worlds.Una is on trial because of Star Trek’s greatest villain, Khan Noonien Singh. The Federation outlawed genetic modification because of Khan’s crimes; however, as the Star Trek: SNW Season 2 premiere showed, the Klingon Empire is not a part of the Federation. That’s not news, but what is marks a return to form for the Klingons, literally. Discovery created Klingons who looked far more alien from any other iterations of the species in Star Trek. Of course, both sets of Klingons are different from those introduced during The Original Series, which takes place in the Star Trek timeline after this episode.RELATED: Why Star Trek Makes Humanity More Prominent Than Aliens
