Set phasers to fun, because we've got some delightful news for the Trekkies out there. Following the critically acclaimed first season, which saw the belated return of Patrick Stewart's beloved Jean-Luc Picard, ViacomCBS has revealed the official trailer for the forthcoming second season of Star Trek: Picard, which centers on the titular captain in his older years, following on from the events of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The new trailer teases all the intergalactic action one can expect from a Star Trek installment, with gorgeous space-based visuals of distant worlds, and a trip back in time to save the universe as we know it. But one moment particularly tugs at the heartstrings: the reunion of Whoopi Goldberg's Guinan with Stewart's Picard, the two characters having not met since The Next Generation's original run. Notably, Goldberg was among the first crop of celebrity fans to take a role on the show, so it's unsurprising that she'd return for the new series.

For Season 2, Stewart, Alex Kurtzman, Akiva Goldsman, Terry Matalas, Heather Kadin, Aaron Baiers, Rod Roddenberry, Trevor Roth, Doug Aarniokoski, and Dylan Massin serve as executive producers. Cast members include Stewart, Goldberg, Alison Pill, Jeri Ryan, Michelle Hurd, Evan Evagora, Orla Brady, Isa Briones, Santiago Cabrera, Annie Wersching, and Brent Spiner. Furthermore, John de Lancie makes a special guest appearance as the iconic Q.
