I've seen a photo. It was supposedly filmed with her in shot, then cropped when someone realised it looked more mysterious and high tech if we just saw his gestures.
USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?
- Thread starter EJD1984
- Start date
So ... the version the audience saw was intended to demonstrate advanced tech?
One could definitely argue that.
Isn't that all we do around here anyway?
Plus there's some question of whether the character could even have seen Spock's hand movements from where she sat.
This is her, supposedly:

She looks so pissed off. Like she knew her moment of button-pressing glory would be expunged to make Spock look a little more high-tech.
I wonder if he's been compensated for that.
Well it was a deleted scene, the name and registry could have been temp, or they moved it from the TOS Connie to the other ship.
We don't know when in development they decided to remove it.
I've seen that photo too, but I've never been able to find it when I go looking.
I suppose an interesting scenario is what if they do one of those episodes which they've done in everyone of the spin-off shows set in the 'near future' relative to the show's present. There were the future scenes in 'All Good Things', there was the holodeck scenes on 'These are the Voyages' and so on. Imagine if they did one of those for DSC? Of course they'd probably set it post TMP.
When they did it in ENT, they showed exact replicas of TOS interiors (technically dragged to the show's present from said near-future, but still). Perhaps redoing that would be too repetitive to start with?
Milking TMP interior themes for greater visual worth without doing 1:1 replicas, the way they toyed with TOS elements on the Kelvin, might be cool. Especially if they dared do the moustaches and hairdos, just like Rogue One had the guts to do. (Mind you, the regulation sideburns look amazing on Chris Pine. Good call.)

I think that gimmick's time has passed. It was always kind of cheesy when other shows did it, anyway.
I wish they'd do 'Yesterday's Enterprise' style alternative future story and get Shatner as old Kirk. Not gonna happen, but it would be glorious!
I really want to see Pike's Enterprise. I like Bruce Greenwood but wish they didn't cast Pike older so that a whole gen thinks of him as Kirk's father figure. I think Hunter's Pike and is one of the best characters in Star Trek. Like a younger, more flawed Picard. Number one opens up a whole world of Spock/Data behavior. There's also something about having a completely different "family" walking the same decks of ol' 1701.
I'd also watch this. Maybe Number One is Spock's lost sister
I was really hoping Burnham was Number One. She still could be. They do have to explain how a human got into the Vulcan SA. She'd have to have a brain like a computer to keep up with the more advanced Vulcans.I'd also watch this. Maybe Number One is Spock's lost sister
