Summary[]
Log entries[]
- Personal log, Commander Michael Burnham, stardate 1029.46
- Any rational explanation for the seven signals that have appeared across the galaxy continues to escape me. And with it, perhaps, any chance of a relationship with my brother Spock. What did he see in them that I can't? My failure to understand feels like a failure to reach him at a time when he might me need me most.
