As much as I'd like to laugh, I've only seen the first two episodes of Voyager, so it's not my place

When Kirk takes the ship out for trials do you think he'll go back in time to get Spock?

I kinda feel sorry for the guy.
With a name like that, he'll never make it beyond Captain.

He won't be commanding CVN-65, as she has been decommissioned. If he's still in the navy twelve years from now he might command CVN-80.
