CBS has finally unveiled an official premiere date for its highly-anticipated “Star Trek: Discovery” series, following a troubled production process which led to several delays, reports Variety.

Originally scheduled to begin airing in January 2017, “Star Trek: Discovery” will now bow on September 24, with the first season to be split into two parts. The first eight episodes will run through November, while the remaining seven episodes are slated to air early 2018.
