Summary[]
- Blurb
- Join the crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos as they seek out new life and travel where people may, or may not, have been before!
- Based on the hit Paramount+ animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks, Mariner, Boimler and all their friends offer advice and insider knowledge to new crewmembers.

Background information[]
- When the book was first introduced with preview pages, it accidentally spoiled Brad Boimler's promotion to Lieutenant junior grade as it had been revealed prior to the season starting.
- T'Lyn is erroneously listed as an ensign.
- With the mentioning of Ferenginar preparing to join the United Federation of Planets yet the appearance of a "Badgey 2.0" instead of the more heroic Goodgey suggests the handbook was made between LD: "Parth Ferengi's Heart Place" and LD: "A Few Badgeys More".
- The book mentions the USS Dauntless, marking the first usage of Star Trek: Prodigy in the Lower Decks setting.
