However, they now have a good idea of where they went. Tilly has Zora adjust the viewscreen for the Lorentzian coefficient and high-energy spectra, revealing an aperture in front of the ship that keeps opening and closing. Stamets explains that it's a wormhole of sorts and Discovery just couldn't see it until they recalibrated their scans. Stamets and Tilly believe ..
