Corrected entry: As the hologram of Captain Maddox walks toward Burnham, it steps up the steps, complete with reflections on the floor. Maddox would be in a hologram projection chamber with no steps, let alone a reflection, and no steps.

Genres: Sci-fi
The War Without, the War Within - S1-E14
Other mistake: In dialogue, Starbase 1 is described as "100 AU from Earth," which is over three times the orbital distance of Neptune, but still within the Solar System. But the onscreen graphic shows the starbase next to a planet that can be visually recognized as Earth; portions of North America, including the Florida peninsula and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, are visible.
Trivia: Paul says to Dr Cruz that they will take a trip to La Boheme. That is an homage to Paul's role on Rent, where he sings La Vie Boheme.
Such Sweet Sorrow: Part 2 - S2-E14
Question: Jumping to the future to preserve the sphere data was meant to be so that Control couldn't get hold of it. But Control is neutralised before the jump, drones all dead in the water, it's utterly destroyed. So what's the threat? Why jump at all?
Answer: Perhaps they didn't want to take the risk that Control - a tactical and strategic analysis program - would choose to place its entire core programming into a single fragile human body (Leland), despite previously demonstrating the ability to decentralise, duplicate and transfer itself to numerous computer, cybernetic and organic systems. If any trace of the Control program still existed, it could make another attempt to seize the sphere data.

Correction: First of all, there is nothing in the show that indicates "projection chambers" are used. The holograms appear to be generated from bridge so any interaction would match the room they are in. As for the reflection, the hologram doesn't produce the reflection. The floor is reflecting the hologram.
