      Archer is a dog loving goofball who just is confused that he has the job.

      Burnham is from some weird non-canon antifan fiction.

        Jonathan only has the job because his dad built the engine. Nepotism rears it’s ugly head once again.

          Was Johnathon the second choice until the first choice guy died in a test flight, or did that appear to me in a dream?

            Jonathan Archer and AG Robinson were both in the NX test pilot program. AG was the prime candidate for captaincy but was passed over for Jonathan 6 months before launch date. AG died afterwards while climbing a mountain. He was going to be captain of NX-02 Columbia but died before she launched.
