The Kobayashi Maru is referred to in other live-action and animated content, and characters also use the phrase " Kobayashi Maru" to describe no-win or desperate situations generally. A holographic version of Spock advises Dal that "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few," and Dal realizes he needs to listen to his crew more often. Every attempt ends in his ship's destruction, adding to his despondence. Dal, who is struggling as the starship Protostar's captain and is not familiar with Starfleet's test, repeats the simulation many times.
The test is also depicted in the Star Trek: Prodigy episode "Kobayashi" (2022). The 2009 film Star Trek shows an alternate timeline's version of Cadet Kirk defeating the Kobayashi Maru test. Later in the film, Kirk reveals that he beat the Kobayashi Maru as a cadet on his third attempt by reprogramming the simulation to make it possible to rescue the ship, and that he does not actually believe in the idea of a no-win scenario. Kirk replies that a starship captain might face an actual "no-win scenario". When Saavik says the test is unfair because there is no way to win, Admiral James T. With the bridge crew dead and the ship badly damaged, Saavik orders the crew to abandon ship and the simulation ends. The crew loses contact with the civilian ship and three Klingon vessels attack. They receive a distress call from the Kobayashi Maru and enter the Klingon Neutral Zone to rescue it.
The test is introduced in the opening of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, with Lieutenant Saavik commanding her crew on a bridge simulator. Kirk is the only character credited in live-action Star Trek with succeeding in the Kobayashi Maru test. The term is also sometimes used to invoke Kirk's decision to "change the conditions of the test."ĭepiction William Shatner as Captain James T.

This unknown period in Kirk's life will provide Wesley with plenty of material to sink his teeth into as an actor, as the character develops into the Kirk that audiences know from the very early days of Star Trek. This is a sensible approach, not least because he's playing a younger version of the future Enterprise captain. It's unclear exactly how Kirk factors into Strange New Worlds season 2, but Paul Wesley has stated his intention not to do an imitation of Shatner and Pine's portrayals. It's a different spin on the Abrams movies' Kirk and Pike relationship, with Pike now being cognizant of Kirk and Spock's importance to the future of the Federation. Pike was shown this potential future as a means to convince him to accept his tragic Star Trek fate by handing the Enterprise over to Kirk. He memorably made his debut in Strange New Worlds season 1 finale, which provided an alternate version of the classic TOS episode, "Balance of Terror". Paul Wesley is the latest actor to take on the role of James T.
