Nah there's definitely different universes/timelines in star trek. The series just have the one main timeline they follow.

spoiler

In TNG theres the dark Romulan war timeline in which Yar doesn't die in that confrontation with the evil tar pit guy and goes on to prevent war with the Romulans, switching us back to the main timeline where the war doesn't happen but Yar's descendant is a Romulan warlord.

I think this is the same timeline in DS9 where evil Kira and all of them exist. It's mentioned in DS9 that the Kirk in this timeline also switched places with the Kirk in the main timeline at some point but I didn't watch TOS so I cannot confirm.

The final season of Lower Decks was also a huge step into multiverse theory. So perhaps there is more to come.

Yeah! Until lower decks there was only ever the "mirror universe" (and a few alternate timeline shenanigans that were never clearly a different universe, just a different 'time line'.)

I want lower decks back 😞
