Red alert has been Star Trek's shipwide emergency signal since the original series, ordering the crew to battle stations. This version comes from Star Trek: Picard season 2, which premiered in 2022, aboard the USS Stargazer under Captain Rios. Picard revived the Stargazer as a modern Starfleet vessel and updated familiar bridge sounds for a new era. Clips of the alarm spread through fan edits, gaming videos and meme posts, where its instantly recognisable warning now signals any sudden danger or dramatic failure beyond Star Trek itself.
Über diesen Sound
The updated red alert klaxon from the USS Stargazer in Star Trek: Picard season 2, used for starship emergencies, danger scenes and sci-fi edits.
This is the modern red alert alarm heard aboard the USS Stargazer, with a urgent electronic klaxon that rises and repeats to signal a shipwide emergency. The tone is sharper and more layered than the classic series alarm, mixing a pulsing siren with bridge warning tones that feel tense and high tech. It instantly tells viewers that the crew is in danger and battle stations are imminent. Even without visuals, the sound creates pressure and urgency, making a normal scene feel like a crisis unfolding in deep space.
