Agree completely. This is exactly the kind of thing I want to see from Star Trek. (I've been reading an essay about queer Star Trek fans this morning and it's talking about the campaign for queer visibility... on TNG. I can't believe it's over two decades later and we're still having to ask, and still getting fobbed off with the same answers. Including queer characters should just be what Star Trek does.) And yes, exploration and adventure and hope, those are key.
