Thought you’d had enough Star Trek: Strange New Worlds this week? Think again. To not leave fans who didn’t directly beam into San Diego Comic-Con feeling left out today, Paramount has made the surprise move to drop the latest episode of the series—its highly anticipated crossover with Star Trek: Lower Decks—for everyone right now.

Yes, as of 4pm PT/7pm ET today, “Those Old Scientists,” the seventh episode of Strange New Worlds’ sophomore season, is streaming on Paramount+, after fans got to see it a little earlier today during the Star Trek universe panel in San Diego Comic-Con’s Hall H.
