Couldn't remember what it was reminding me of but this is it thanks. I thought that that generations crest was gonna be the badge when the movie posters came out and was disappointed so if they use them now
Reminds me of the 30th anniversary logos.
Yep he sure would
I met the Voyager combadge once in a pub. She was a real arsehole had a terrible personality where as the TOS combadge was a real gent at the conventions and always hung round after to chat to the kids
They have inoculations against that.I would hope they would also invent 5000 SPF sunblock to protect people from the radiation coming out of that thing as well.
Very nice! These look cool, but I'm actually seeing them a little differently. Will be interesting when we'll get a clear look and see who's less wrong.I guess, for me, the thing that's most noticeable with these badges (or rather noticeable because it's not noticeable...) is the Starfleet arrowhead / delta symbol: it very much looks like it will be all but completely lost against the background ellipse when seen from anything other than pretty close-up or, just possibly, when seen from exactly the right angle for the light to catch the various polished and matt surfaces of the new badge
All the other variants have pretty much maintained and emphasised the primacy of the arrowhead emblem as the main feature of the badge, regardless of the shape or features of the background.
Again, there may be a specific plot point here... maybe they're deliberately trying to downplay the overt "Starfleet" look of the badge in response to whatever the new political reality is in the future they have entered; it may be that these actually are the Starfleet badges from that time period. We just won't know this for sure until season three plays-out.
So far, we have seen Burnham wearing what appears to be a gold badge on her blue/silver Sciences uniform and Culber and Pollard wearing silver badges on their white/silver Medical uniforms. I'd be curious to see if they choose to use the full range of gold / silver / copper badges to match the department / branch colours they have previously established for the Discovery-era uniforms.
To expand on my last sketch, here's a quick image to give some idea of what the broader range of badges *might* look like...
You could well be right!
It certainly looks like a relatively tall, slim badge with a much longer vertical axis compared to the horizontal.
I've been compensating slightly for the fact that the only pics so far are from relatively oblique side angles, which will distort the true shape somewhat. I have a feeling that when we see them properly "face-on" the overall shape will have a slightly fuller width -- but it's all just extrapolation and guesswork at this stage.
Like the original Disco badges, they seem to have a mix of matt (or at least "satin") and polished surfaces. Looking again at the Burnham pic, I suspect that I have over-emphasised the 3D depth of the arrowhead relative to the background. Indeed, it may even be that the symbol is just etched surface on an otherwise plain, polished, slightly domed ellipse (and the same etching for the rank marks). Looking closely at Pollard's badge, there's just a hint of a protrusion beyond the rim of the ellipse, suggesting that end of the longer limb of the delta does indeed stand slightly proud of the edge of the background, whereas the views of Culber's and Burnham's badges (seen from the other side) have a smooth edge to the ellipse, suggesting that the short limb of the delta ends at or within the rim of the background.
We'll see...

I’m sure my attempts aren’t all that close!
They look vaguely Bajoran, maybe Bajor is one of the six stars on the Federation flag.what they look like to me so far
URSA Major?
Auto correct is not my friend, Major was supposed to be Bajor.
I figured but couldn't resist the joke.
