Comparatively, Lt. Spock was only 29 in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 1. Spock was born in 2230 on Vulcan, and he is about 36 in Star Trek: The Original Series when Spock is portrayed by Leonard Nimoy.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds introduced Lieutenant James T. Kirk (Paul Wesley), the younger version of William Shatner's Kirk in the Prime Timeline. Lt. Kirk is about 26 years old in Strange New Worlds' era (2259 onward), and James was promoted to First Officer of the USS Farragut in Strange New Worlds season 2.
Leonard Nimoy's Spock Sets Boundaries for Strange New Worlds
The differences are easily explained as the creation of an alternate universe, letting Quinto find his take on Spock without having to emulate Nimoy. Peck faces the same challenge, but without the benefit of being a variant.
Spock would have been in his mid-30s during the events of The Original Series. In human years, he would be roughly in his sixties. However, Vulcans have extremely long lifespans compared to humans and it isn't unusual for Vulcans to live to 200 years of age even though humans and Vulcans mature at about the same age.
Spock is 29. His date of birth hasn't changed. With Pike, it depends on his date of birth. He is supposed to be in his early 30s in The Cage, meaning he should be in his late 30s or even 40 in SNW.
Why is Star Trek Strange New Worlds SPOCK so much Different than Classic SPOCK?
How old was Spock in Strange New Worlds?
Comparatively, Lt. Spock was only 29 in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 1. Spock was born in 2230 on Vulcan, and he is about 36 in Star Trek: The Original Series when Spock is portrayed by Leonard Nimoy.
As Spock explained to Kirk in Star Trek: TOS, his union with T'Pring was "less than a marriage but more than a bethrothal." Indeed, Spock was meant to finally undergo the koon-ut-kal-if-fee marriage ritual with T'Pring in "Amok Time" before she invoked her right to have Spock fight to the death for her.
Michael is about 4 years older than Spock, but curiously, Sybok was already gone when the young Burnham moved to Vulcan. Sybok is never mentioned in any of Michael and Spock's flashbacks to their childhood on Star Trek: Discovery, but was Burnham aware that Spock had an older half-brother?
So, Spock is older than Kirk, but only by 3 years. I don't know about you, but much past college I'd stop noticing a 3 year age difference, however you are technically correct (the best kind of correct). Kirk entered Starfleet Academy in 2252, and graduated only a year or two later in 2253 or 2254.
Every seven years, Vulcan males and females experience an overpowering hormone imbalance known as pon farr. Once triggered, a Vulcan must have sexual intercourse with someone or the chemical imbalance may cause insanity, loss of self-control, and death.
The beloved Vulcan's full name is officially S'Chn T'Gai Spock. The name actually comes from a popular fan work-turned novel for The Original Series in Barbara Hambly's Ishmael which was published in 1985.
The adult T'Pring was played by Arlene Martel in Star Trek: The Original Series and Gia Sandhu in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and Star Trek: very Short Treks. Although no reference work notes the name of the girl depicted as the young T'Pring, she was played by Mary Rice.
Who was the youngest captain in Starfleet history?
Kirk became Starfleet's youngest starship captain after receiving command of the USS Enterprise for a five-year mission, three years of which are depicted in the original Star Trek series.
Sam was the older brother of James T. Kirk, who was the one who gave Sam his nickname. When James was given command of the USS Enterprise, he, along with his family, were present when James left on his five-year mission. (TOS: "What Are Little Girls Made Of?")
Sadly, Spock died without ever siring an heir, and in Star Trek canon, neither Kirk nor Spock got to have descendants to carry on their adventures and save the galaxy.
He entered the alternate reality at age 157 and stayed alive for 5 years (http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Spock#Involvement_in_the_alternate_reality) and he died due to natural causes.
In order to demonstrate how close they truly were, and how much Kirk had “humanized” Spock, they would have him use the diminutive of James, which is Jim. This is a name used by those close to the Captain or in intimate moments of friendship.
Did Spock have a half-brother in the original series?
For a time, he grew up alongside his older half-brother Sybok, until the older brother was cast out for rejecting logic. In Star Trek: Discovery, it is revealed that Spock has a human, adopted sister, Michael Burnham.
Spock made a tough decision to keep his adopted sister a secret to protect the galaxy in "Star Trek: Discovery." Spock's history of keeping personal matters private helps explain why he never mentioned Michael Burnham.
Spock has always had a complicated family dynamic, but his older half-brother Sybok is especially troublesome. While Sarek, Amanda, and Michael Burnham are all heroes, Sybok tends to be more villainous. Audiences were first surprised by Sybok's existence in the film Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.
Star Trek: The Original Series writer David Gerrold, has also spoken about K/S slash sometimes. In 1985, Gerrold commented: One of the truths I've been telling lately is that Kirk and Spock are not lovers ... they're not even boyfriends. They're just good friends.
Did Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock ever kiss? Very much no. If they had, it would have created ripples that likely would have made the creation of any new Star Trek series impossible until right about now, and Star Trek Next Gen has been out for over 30 years.
Uhura's first name was not used in Star Trek canon until Abrams's 2009 film. The mystery regarding Uhura's first name is the subject of a running joke in the film, as Captain Kirk repeatedly tries to find out what it is, before finally hearing Spock call her "Nyota" in a moment of intimacy.
