CBS debuted the stunning first trailer from the ambitious CBS All Access sci-fi series during its Upfront presentation in New York City on Wednesday -- and it will leave you speechless.

It opens with Georgiou telling Burnham, who has served under her for seven years, that it's time for her to lead her own ship, before the two are transported to another world.

The action ramps up as their ship engages with their most formidable Star Trek foe: the Klingons. "I'm trying to save you," Burnham insists to her crew during a dramatic moment in the trailer. "I'm trying to save all of you."

CBS has also released brand new photos from the new series, revealing the expansive world in which Discovery will take place.
