    It’s the same amount of Vulcan science officers! (Maybe even 2½, if you count Burnham’s upbringing)

      ‘Hi we’re Starfleet, and we recruit our captains from among the best and the brightest on 150 member worlds, spread over 8,000 light years! But the vast majority of the time, when it’s not Jean-Luc Picard, we just get them from this one particular country that accounts for about 4% of the population of Earth. Weird, huh?’

      Wait, are you counting T’Pol and Spock? What about Tuvok? He was a science officer on the Excelsior.

          Well he should count for half like Michael. :D

          I see after your edit that you posted a pic of Enterprise B. I was talking about when he made tea for Sulu on Excelsior.

          There was a flashback to Tuvok on Excelsior, as well. It is incredibly confusing.

          If this was Star Wars they would have “Special Editioned” in some Vulcan ears (on Enterprise B) by now.

          Yes, and during one episode he has flashbacks to the excelsior where he served with sulu. On the excelsior he was a junior science officer.
