The StarBase 118 universe is richly populated by both familiar Trek favorites such as the [[Vulcan]]s, [[Trill]], and [[Andorian]]s as well as newly introduced species encountered by our ships such as the [[Laudean]]s and the [[Kubarey]]. Numerous other species that were only mentioned offhand onscreen such as the [[Dokkaran]]s and the [[Rodulan]]s have also been fleshed out in our universe.

Although this version of the future was ultimately prevented from happening in the course of the episode, because we have seen the double-barred combadge design consistently throughout "future timeline" episodes, from "All Good Things..." (TNG) to "The Visitor" (DS9) and "Endgame" (VOY), it would seem this combadge was destined to be deployed by Starfleet. With our game now passing the events of even the alternate future seen in "Timeless," the new combadge design is now showing up across our fleet gradually.
