That's the way it should've been to begin with.Funny how it was so essential that they clutter up the original Enterprise to make it look “realistic,” but when they want to show “futuristic,” as the Enterprise design originally intended, it’s right back to the smooth, minimalist hulls.
It's funny to me because these hulls don't look futuristic so much as organic.
So... not Star Trek looking at all. Like a cheap sci-fi show that’s trying to ripoff Star Trek![]()
To each their own. I think they look just fine. Nice to see more variety of shapes in Starfleet than just nacelles and saucers.Honestly, they look like they were 3D printed with cheap plastic.

I like nacelles and saucers too. But there is more to ships than that.I like my nacelles and saucers, but that's what I got Star Trek Online ships for. In the 32nd century, Starfleet ships just have to look wildly different from what we know. We already got that with the Universe-class looking familiar but intentionally ridiculous, and chronologically later the Wells-class having an alien shape with a mixture of old and new recognizably Starfleety features.

*groan*If you look closely at the Angelou-class USS Maathai on the CBS promo image, you can see its bridge.

I was afraid nobody'd get it.*groan*
you kind of see briefly, but not that well.Season finale is out!
Only thing I learned from scouring the interwebs so far isVoyager gets name-dropped twice, and a Ni'Varan fleet turns up but I don't know if we see it.
Do we learn anything more about the other Starfleet ships? New names, new registry numbers?
Admittedly, I had to google a lot of the names but I got a warm, fuzzy feeling from each one. As a foreigner, I appreciate the conscious thought of ship-naming non-US activists and explorers.Just got to say how awesome it is that the forest ship is named after Wangari Maathai, who started the Green Belt Movement. Quite a fitting name.
