USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

Well they went even further in the original design of the TMP Enterprise...
Originally they wanted the energy glow between the nacelles to actually arc across the space, but that didn't happen either.

I was wondering if the Enterprise bridge would be a redress, as a few people speculated before. Now I'm starting to think it won't be. I think they built a new set for it. I think they'll go the extra mile to showcase their version of the Enterprise.

I also think Kirk in the illustration above looks kind of like John Travolta.
 
Reminds me of the energy arc that's projected by the engine systems of the I.S.S. Charon in the DSC Mirror Universe arc. If I'm remembering the energy beams correctly. I just know that Emperor Georgiou's flagship harnesses a manmade singulariy enclosed within an energy field and it's visible on the outside of her vessel.

That was actually a huge ball of energy projected from a tower below the main body of the ship and between the Charon's nacelles...

There wasn't any obvious energy flowing from the nacelles.


The ship actually very much reminds me of a Romulan Dideridex ...

Obviously, the MU Empire conquered the Romulans and stole their starship designs.
:cool:

I don’t think those are the nacelles.

The nacelles are at the front of the ship, you can see the bussard collectors in some shots.

It looked VERRRRRY inspired by richmerk's take on the XCV-330 (google to see it sometime)

A ship so ridiculously big it has a tiny star and Halo habitat ring but we only see the castle on the topmost level before it blows up. Shame.

I googled, but nothing specific came up, just general images of tbe XCV-330. Got a link?

That's what 8 million dollars an episode will get you.

(That and mirror universe uniforms that look like layered cardboard.)

Yeah, that ship design isn't really one of the Mirror Universe's greatest and most shining moments in the franchise. It's not as bad as the hypersensitivity to light that seems to have gone away by "Mirror, Mirror(TOS)," but hey, it's still plenty "meh" in its own right.

Lorca clearly learned to manage it so it can be manageable.
 
Clearly the unprepared and accidentally-displaced senior officers of the I.S.S. Enterprise did when locked inside our Enterprise's brightly-lit brig. ;)

Now now.
It’s clearly layered foam.
Like cosplayers use.
A bone was thrown.
 
A shame they couldn't have dropped the piss-poor MU plot development of every Terran now having Mogwai light sensitivity so that more of that huge budget could have been used for brighter lighting on those elaborate (and kinda cool) sets.

I'm still convinced that the Lorca eye thing did not originally have anything to do with the MU and was just a thematic choice. "Light sensitivity" was just what the new creative team came up with when they had to cook up something semi-coherent from the ingredients left behind by Fuller.
