Seven of Nine is a beloved character in the Star Trek universe, but she recently reached an exciting new milestone as the Captain Seven of Nine on the USS Enterprise! Find out why this move was so shocking!
It took other popular Star Trek Captain, years to earn the top spot in the Starfleet hierarchy! If you remember Captain Kirk (William Shatner), Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), and Captain Worf (Michael Dorn) had long waits! The time spent on their respective Enterprise versions took years!
The Seven of Nine USS Enterprise rise is the fastest in the Prime Timeline, a new twist for fans of this universe, including those who have followed Seven of Nine Voyager to Seven of Nine Picard. In just two years! After Jeri Ryan's Seven of Nine received a field commission in the Star Trek Picard Season 2 finale, she continued serving aboard the USS Titan. But what was different for the Star Trek Captain Seven of Nine? That came one year later. It wasn't as straightforward as receiving the rank after years of Starfleet service, which can seem quite surprising! It took several years, a field commission for Seven of Nine (a very important aspect), and some of her Seven of Nine experience serving as a Seven of Nine Fenris Ranger to get there.
Captain Kirk Seven of Nine might actually have been quicker to ascend to the ranks! Captain Kirk, played by Chris Pine in the Star Trek Kelvin Timeline, started at Starfleet Academy, and was Captain by day's end, due to some special circumstances and quick decision making on Starfleet's behalf, an exciting chapter in the Star Trek Prime Timeline!
If we do a Star Trek Captain comparison between Captain Seven of Nine, Kirk, and other popular captains, including Captain Kirk Seven of Nine, who's in the alternate Kelvin Timeline, and Picard, there is quite a time disparity. Even Captain Jonathan Archer (who starred in Star Trek: Enterprise, served over a decade before he captained the first Star Trek Enterprise, a big difference!
Check out the chart. You'll see how long each Captain has had a title in Star Trek. A few have been serving for 36 or more years, including Captain Jean-Luc Picard! Seven of Nine comes in with two years, a remarkable rise, even considering how Seven of Nine character took a very different path to her promotion!
With a stellar Seven of Nine Starfleet career and such fast ascension to the role of captain, Seven of Nine has earned a lot of respect in the Star Trek universe, where it's often more about experience than specific Starfleet roles! This can make for incredible scenarios, especially if you've been watching since Seven of Nine Voyager. Fans should definitely be on the lookout for how Seven of Nine legacy will unfold and what her Seven of Nine career will bring next!
