What Season 3 of Star Trek: Lower Decks

Season 3 follows the support crew of the USS Cerritos, a modest Starfleet ship, in 2380. While the bridge makes the big decisions, Ensigns Mariner, Boimler, Tendi, and Rutherford handle their daily duties and try to keep their social lives on track. The season opens with Mariner rallying her friends to clear her mother, Captain Freeman, who is accused in a military court of destroying the planet Pakled. From there, episodes mix rivalries with the Delta Shift and missions that take the crew to very different planets and bases. Science fiction anomalies shake up the ship and disrupt its routine.
