Season 4 lands as a 10-episode run, dropping weekly every Thursday rather than as a single box set, so fans have a fresh instalment to look forward to each week through late September.

This season, we've already seen big swings from the creative team and the potential for a Star Trek spin-off – and there's lots more to come.

The premiere, titled Valles Marineris, arrived on Thursday 23 July 2026, kicking off a weekly rollout that keeps the season in the conversation right up to the finale.

Here's everything you need to know about when new episodes of season 4 will arrive!
