Star Trek How Old Is Janeway During Prodigy

Star Trek: Prodigy features a holographic Kathryn Janeway as part of its crew, but how old is the Voyager captain when the show takes place? In the new Star Trek show, a group of young aliens in the Delta Quadrant discover an abandoned Starfleet ship, the USS Protostar. They must learn to work together as they try to take the ship to the Alpha Quadrant.

The Star Trek: Voyager captain last appeared as a vice admiral in the film Star Trek: Nemesis. Before that, Janeway and the rest of the crew of the USS Voyager spent seven years stranded in the Delta Quadrant before finally returning home. Star Trek: Prodigy featured the first appearance of the Delta Quadrant since Star Trek: Voyager concluded. Kate Mulgrew returned for the first time since 2002 to the Star Trek universe in her holographic appearance in Prodigy.

In the context of the Star Trek timeline, Star Trek: Prodigy takes place in the late 24th century, specifically the year 2383. Previously, Voyager ended with the ship returning home in the year 2378, placing Prodigy five years after the events of Voyager. While there’s no canonical confirmation of Janeway’s age, information from various episodes and books puts her in her mid- to late-30s at the start of Voyager, most likely around 35 or 36. When the Voyager returned seven years later, she would have been in her early forties, about 42 or 43. That means that, given that Star Trek: Prodigy is set five years later, the real Kathryn Janeway would be in her late forties, about 47 or 48 years old.

Another question regarding age is how old Captain Janeway was when the Starfleet hologram of her in Star Trek: Prodigy was recorded. At this point, the only information known for sure is that the emergency training hologram was created sometime after her return to the Alpha Quadrant in 2378. If the creation of this hologram was as intensive as the creation of the Emergency Medical Hologram shown in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Voyager, the process would likely have taken at least a year. It also would have taken time to implement on the USS Protostar before it disappeared pre-2383. Using this information to estimate, the hologram was most likely created sometime between 2379 and 2381. In this case, the version of Janeway the hologram is based on would have been around age 45.

If Star Trek: Prodigy’s alien crew ever met the real Kathryn Janeway, she would be a little bit older than the hologram version of her they’d known. At the start of the new show, Janeway in the Alpha Quadrant is almost 50. If she’s still active in Starfleet, she would be an admiral. Whether or not this version of the Voyager captain appears, the hologram version appearing in Star Trek: Prodigy is a fun twist on an interesting character.
