Star Trek: Discovery season 5 features a treasure hunt for the powerful Progenitors' technology. The Progenitors' technology sounds very similar to the Genesis Device in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan in its implications. However, the Progenitors' technology sounds more precise and more diverse than the Genesis Device. In turn, this would explain why they left behind the message seen in Star Trek: The Next Generation's "The Chase" and access to their technology, so that they could live on through the many species they created. The energies of the Genesis Planet also resurrected Spock (Leonard Nimoy), accelerating his rebirth to adulthood. The Progenitors couldn't just seed the oceans of planets to create humanoids in their image, but they could also redesign entire worlds.
