Man I seriously want a whole story or series on this ship now! Like, it won't be the kind of Star Trek we're used to. This would be like Star Trek: Event Horizon. I want to see that first contact that caused them to go from explorers to survivors. What race do we think they came across first that ended in near disaster? Also depending on the kind of drive they used, how far their first warp or jump took them.

Everyone loves Pike's hair so now it is a ongoing challenge to find a new haircut that can top it. So far Pike's hair has taken on all challengers and sent them all back to the barber shop in humiliating defeat.
Interesting:So I wanted to be able to confirm that the XCV-100 is the same model as the XCV-300 series, and it seems like they aren't the same at all. It seems like the XCV-100 "Scavenger" was actually about 2-3x the size of the concept XCV-330 Enterprise series. So basically what I'm seeing is that the XCV is the series of class of models, and that the number designations at the time determine whether its the older larger classes, or the smaller newer classes, if UESPA was a thing prior to Cochrane's Starfleet. One way to determine is with the front of the hull we saw: The XCV-100 had what looked like rows of decks with TINY windows, like windows you'd see on a Starbase small. This XCV-100 albeit similar, is NOT the same ship: XCV-100
XCV-330:
It's just fan-made stuff, but I had developed some 3d models for an RPG that we ran on a 3d world based on the early post-FC years. Our hero-ship was the XCV-102, Hypatia. Oddly enough, we didn't discuss XCV-100 but said something bad happened to it.
Anyway the images are here. It's the only record left of it, sadly:
The Ships of 2081
I thought I'd try and show some images that come from an rpg me and a few others create on a virtual world. Mostly it's interactive storytelling set a couple of decades after first contact when humanity is really first getting into the stars. For this post I'll try not to show characters and...

We don't know that she was right. Events in the episode indicate that she wasn't.
And being so relatively junior, higher ups would be right to slap her, and Spock, for going along with it, down hard.
1960s beehives and Beatles haircuts are weirder at this point.
At least she didn't have the Berman era bowlcut.
Heh, I have a 40-year old wired telephone that still works fine* - so I'm 10% of the way there.
* = I keep it as an emergency backup in the garage (wired phones are powered by the phone line itself, so they'll still work if the rest of the power goes out, as long as the phone lines themselves still work)
That's cool! This XCV-100 though looks like it could've been more used for an ark ship or something, not a crew of just 10. Someone might have more time to break down how big the ship would've been and how many decks it had, because I can't see that ship only crewed by 10 at the time.Interesting:

Hawai'i got nuked off the map during WWIII and Vermont seceded from the US and became a Canadian province in 2040.I think some eagle-eyed fan already pointed out that the flag has 50 stars, although TNG: The Royale said that the US flag got 52 stars in 2033. That means that the ship launched before 2033, yet Pelia says it launched in the aftermath of World War 3, which would put the launch in the late 2050s or early 2060s.
OH NO! Continuity error! WORST EPISODE EVER! Trek is ruined, I tell you, ruined!!!!!
Continuity repaired!

Doh! I stand corrected.
Damn! That was good! Nothing really to add to what folks have already said.
I got to say, in this episode Paul Wesley did a good job evoking Shatner without impersonating Shatner. A tricky thing to do, especially with an actor like Shatner who is difficult to avoid doing an impersonation of.
Just to be clear, as I understand it, the ring ship had a form of warp drive which was the ring. It seemed to be Vulcan derived tech since they used the same warp rings. It was the Phoenix which used the first human tech warp, but if the Ringship predated the Phoenix where did the ring warp get the tech?
It had to have had some interstellar drive otherwise the timing doesn't work. Using space-normal drive the ship couldn't have gone very far from Sol in that time, let alone have time to breed and build up to scavenger level.
If the ring wasn't an interstellar drive but just some sort of space normal system then the ship had to have encountered of those convenient wormhole/spacial anomalies which seem to hover around our solar system waiting for a ship to create displaced story with...

There was no warp ring on the XCV-100. The episode goes out of its way to say that the launch was in the 2050s when there was no warp drive on Earth. Whatever powered the ship (my guess would be nuclear fusion reactors that provided sublight velocities) it wasn't a warp reactor of any size or sophistication.
That just means the crew cabin and fuselage were similar or the same, but there were no warp engines attached to it.
You got that backwards. Also the Enterprise was 330 not 300.
They said in the episode the ship disappeared. I think the implication is clear.
