Star Trek Discovery

In your opinion.... Other like both this design and the one from Planet Of The Gods. Don't asume that because you have an opinion, it becomes fact.
The greatest sin in the star trek universe, is being forced to ride in an ugly ship. Khan Noonien Singh had that indignity with the Miranda class.
There are literally HUNDREDS of concept ships that look better than that monstrosity, for the sake of all that is good just and holy in this world, spare us that hideous hulk.
If they wanted a science/discovery type cruiser, they should have gone with a modified reconnaissance class
Or something like this with the pod stripped off the top would look a thousand times better:
Does NO one working at CBS care about beauty in the world anymore ?!?!??!??!??!??
The Miranda class is awesome, they're like the VW Beetle of Starfleet.
I like the title Star Trek Discovery.
Discovering new worlds and new civilizations...
Fuller said that Janeway was his favourite captain.
Who knows, maybe the captain of the Discovery will be a woman. That would be really fantastic.
I like that saucer section of the Discovery. The drive section, between de nacelles is a bit large, I have to get used to that, but I'll wait and see what the ship will look like in the pilot.
Still really looking forward to this new series.

I think the internet has just made the whole world more polarized. You can see it in politics, sports, and even movies. It's getting ridiculous.
The ship was never used in Trek. It's new, as promised.
Yeah, heaven help us if they don't pick a design you like, personally.
I am dumbfounded by how bad this ship is. Heaven help me; I hadn't noticed that I'd started to hope they'd finally get something right. It's like a B-movie design they would have tossed out before deciding to go ahead with ENT. The design is not only cheese, but rusty cheese. And by that I not only mean that it looks like it's cheese that was found in vending machine on Babylon 5 (for how real I feel this is actually a massive ship in actual outer space), but for how totally devoid of anything new has to bring Star Trek, circa 2016/17. There are more realistic and original designs in the Trek Art section of this site or on Deviant Art than there are apparently at CB freaking S.
What a steampunk rejected-McQuarrie worse-than-its-own-GalaxyQuest-satire desiccated piece of shit this is.
Oh, and PS: that it takes place in the "Prime" Universe (oooooooooh) means so little seeing this latest lackluster - shitluster - contribution to it. I don't especially care about the Abramsverse, and they could have created yet another 'verse to put this in for all I care, but that they don't have the whatever to play with their own latest toy is also a little repugnant.

From the ship alone, I'd say it was set post-TOS pre-TNG. It has the TOS-movie era phaser emitters, the TOS-movie era deflector dish, Ambassador class style warp nacelles (rather than the spinning turbine like bussard collectors of TOS or the TMP collectors).
As for the NCC-1031, the USS Constellation had NCC-1017 and lets not forget that a lot of ships underwent a major refit (which is what the phase 2 design was going to be).

No such thing as bussard collectors in TOS or TMP.
A nod to or hint at Section 31 maybe?
How do you figure? Canon said nothing about what we'd find out were Bussard Collectors (regardless what fans conjectured) until canon called them Bussard Collectors.
Even that piece of excrement, isn't this piece of excrement.
Exactly! The Arrowhead or Delta insignia, which represents Starfleet, has a SECTION split off it. Is someone hinting at a Section 31 story? NCC-1031?
Looks interesting, cant wait to find out more about the show, not 100% sure about the ship but it's test footage!
Nooo ... not another prequel! And that ship looks ugly as hell! I feel so disappointed ...
I love the look of the ship, but I agree with your sentiment about another prequel. Hopefully if (big IF as well) this is the route they are going, it could be something wonderful! They have a totally different creative team behind it, and don't have the same sort of pressures that ENT did on a network.
Amen to that. I expected something cool or interesting. But not only is it a bad looking, the effects look like it was done by someone who just discovered 3D rendering software a month ago.
I mean... just look at this low-polygon horror:
In terms of how the ship looks at the moment, it's still early days yet. I imagine the rough shape will stay the same but there's plenty of time to finalise things and make it look special. I'm biased because I already love it I think.
Also bear in mind that they wanted to show the progress of the show so far at comic con, even if that meant doing a quick knock-up for the benefit of giving us an idea of what it's like.
