Star Trek: Starships Model/Magazine Subscription

[NCC-73515]

It's the only ENT-era SF ship I have, because it's the only one I like

I’ll take a photo of the relevant magazine page tonight.
In short, Star Trek Genesis (no dots or hyphen) was to be set in the 23rd century aboard the USS Genesis, a ship with 6 nacelles arranged in a halo.

Edit: Here we go:

They were just coming up with any old show idea

I am curious though.

What the heck was this project?
That's one ugly starship design though. It's like a kid playing around with a starship maker for fun.

Crazy that they were commissioning concept art for a show that no one has even heard of. They really were shitting out money in the early days of CBS All Access.

Yeah, the Genesis thing seems to have been farther along than a lot of the other pitches of which we heard at the time, so it's especially odd that news of it never leaked.

That Genesis ship does not look like a 23rd century Federation ship. It's so out-of-place.

When was it pitched? Was this something pre-discovery? Wasn't there an idea for anthology series to be set on a different ship with a different crew? Maybe this was a ship from the future lost in the past? An ugly ship from the future...

I had assumed it was from that period around when DISCO first started when they started talking about additional shows, but now that you mention it, maybe it actually is from when the idea that each season of Discovery was going to take place on a different ship and era. Memory Alpha says the artist, Scott Schneider, worked on the first season of DISCO.

 

[Tomalak]

I thought the anthology idea died even before Fuller left? Would be nice one day to get the full inside story of the chaos around Disco Seasons 1 and 2.

Hi peeps!

Just purchased the Master Replicas SNW 1701-Enterprise!

Looking very forward to this, as I didn’t manage to get the EM one the first time around.

Huzzah!
