Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

[ITDUDE]

Looking at your cap, it's still not clear. I'd say a 5 or 6...8 is out. Probably is a 5, but they didn't do a lot to separate the lower part to make it visually clear.

It's definitely NCC-75710

But then again Rios said "no record of the ship exists"

Pretty hard to pretend a 700 meter long capital ship level starship doesn't exist, does it?

How long is Discovery including nacelles? That ship never existed either

You stop that

Top one is the First Contact CG model

Are there any orthographic views or behind-the-scenes images of the First Contact CG model?

The secondary hull more than resembles the Crossfield class.
(except for the tail bone)

So does the sovereign in silhouette, I posted a comparison last page.

 

[Racefuel]

On the outline from the episode you can kind of make out the raised areas where the impulse drive vents are on the Sovereign outline too.

 

[Gonzo]

Come on folks its pretty obvious that its a Sovereign class refit.

I recognised it as soon as I saw the picture that was first posted.

Nice write-up already on memory-alpha: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/USS_ibn_Majid
Supposedly, maybe, it's a four nacelle ship based on this thing:

But the Sovereign secondary hull has a curve going back, on this one the edges are straight.

Ah, okay, that's the paintjob and configuration from First Contact / Insurrection, but it's not one of the screen-used CG models. I think the outline is not completely identical to the one seen in the movie, but it's close enough.

 

[Dukhat]

I’m almost positive that silhouette is supposed to represent the Emmett Till-type ship. It was already designed for the Deep Space Nine documentary, and Eaves has a habit of reusing his designs.

 

[Racefuel]

Hm...okay well now I'm swayed to that argument.

Sovereign stylings aside, it's likely this ship was the basis for it.

Seems we are generally coming into agreement about that.

It's a Emmett Till Class starship design by John Eaves.
There were talks and rumors that that class of starship suppose to make a appearance on Star Trek Picard, months before the first episode stream on CBS All Access.
