there's a pretty good new trailer and poster up from CBS AA today:

the VFX are looking particularly refined here, plus lots of spock.

Lots of new dialog and footage in this one:

Quick random thoughts:

The VFX are looking pretty nice. Not thrilled by it being another galaxy wide threat to all life, though. And I'm confused/annoyed by everyone seeming to know what Section 31 is. (Isn't it super duper ultra maxi level top secret?)

Ugh...I don't feel confident about this season now.

1. The "end of all sentient life in the galaxy" line shows they're needlessly upping the stakes again. It's a prequel - we know the worst-case isn't going to happen. And upping the stakes through the "almost destruction" of all life in the multiverse and the "almost bombardment" of Earth did nothing for Season 1. THIS ISN'T A MOVIE - IT'S TV. TREAT IT LIKE A TV SHOW!

2. Georgiou openly talking about Section 31 - and Pike, Burnham, and Tyler knowing about it - brazenly conflicts with what Trek has said about the organization in the past.

Ending life in the galaxy again, Angels already known. Wow where was all of this stuff for the next 100+ years?

It isn't that, it is "where do you go next?" First, it was the end of the Federation. Next, it is the end of all sentient life. How can you possibly one-up that? We've seen what happens to Trek in the films when they go from "the end of everything" to a small mission. People simply don't show up for it.

Oh, they still don't seem to understand how speed of light works.

Don't forget that in Vaulting Ambition Stamets causally dropped that the death of the mycelial network would cause the end of all life as we know it in the entire multiverse. There's no way to top killing all life throughout time in an infinite number of alternate universes. That's an infinite number of deaths!
 

We see the spots of light in seven distinct areas of the galaxy. It would take the light hundreds or thousands of years to reach telescopes in Federation space. Much like the Sarek seeing the light from the Klingon ship from light years away.

They could be subspace signals, that's how the Beacon of Kahless worked.

It's more the fact that Pike knows these Angels have been around a while, so before season 1 or even years. The red holes always showing up on sensors galaxy wide. How was that never heard of before?

It's less dumb than that was, because Sarek affirmatively tells Burnham there's a new star in the sky. We have no evidence yet from this trailer that the red anomalies are actually visible from Federation space.
