In any given season of\u00a0Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/a><\/em>, the vast majority of episodes are pretty self-contained. That said, the two previous seasons each had some interconnected character arcs, and generally, a big season finale teased by previous events. And now, with Season 3, Strange New Worlds<\/em>\u00a0is getting ready to do something similar: Set up a bigger storyline that will almost certainly come back later.<\/p>\n Here’s what to know about Strange New Worlds<\/em>\u00a0Season 3, Episode 4, “Through the Lens of Time,” including the release date, when to stream, and what to know about the plot. No spoilers ahead.<\/strong><\/p>\n Star Trek: Strange New Worlds<\/em> Season 3,\u00a0 Episode 5, “Through the Lens of Time,” will be streaming on Paramount+ on Thursday, August 7, 2025. This is the fourth week of new episodes, but the fifth episode overall because Strange New Worlds<\/em>\u00a0Season 3 debuted with two episodes back on July 17.<\/p>\n Related: Exclusive: ‘Star Trek’ Star Hints at Classic Captain Kirk Vibes in Hit Paramount+ Show<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n As with other Paramount+ shows, Strange New Worlds\u00a0<\/em>drops new episodes at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time, which is 3:00 a.m. Eastern Time. So, Season 3, Episode 5, will arrive very early on Thursday morning, or late on Wednesday night, depending on how you look at it.<\/p>\n The official synopsis for “Through the Lens of Time” is the following:<\/p>\n “Chapel and Korby’s quest leads the Enterprise <\/em>to ancient ruins that are hiding a dark secret.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n The “quest” being referenced here is just the fact that Dr. Korby (Cillian O’Sullivan) is an archaeologist interested in ancient alien tech that may or may not have allowed people to live forever. This foreshadows the fact that in The Original Series <\/em>episode “What Are Little Girls Made Of?”,\u00a0<\/em>this character eventually moves his consciousness into a robot body.<\/p>\n At this point, Strange New Worlds<\/em>\u00a0is happening at least six years before any of that, so Korby’s short-term fate is unclear. But, make no mistakes, these ancient ruins will be a game-changer, and one you won’t want to miss.<\/p>\nStrange New Worlds <\/em>Season 3, Episode 5 Release Date<\/h2>\n
