USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

I'd hope they add the little balls on the ends of the nacelles.

I'd hope they'd add some balls somewhere, to something.

Although to be fair we never heard about the Klingon War of 2256-57 period until DSC. And it wasn't until 2001 that we learned there was a Starfleet ship named Enterprise prior to the NCC-1701.

Heck, we didn't even know until 1982 that James Kirk was a Daddy.

Took us to 1989 to learn Spock had a brother

And? Expensive? Isn't this supposed to be Star Trek were resources and money are less of a consideration?
...

I dunno... is there money in the Federation? It's a question I've always wanted to know the answer to. It would be interesting to devote an entire thread or two to such a topic.

Half brother.

Gosh, it's like they're making it up as they go along.

Making up fiction..... No way lol

...not made up.

It's divinely inspired, from the god of confusion.

Remember in 1992 when we learned Frasier Crane was a Starfleet Captain even though Cheers never once mentioned that he had a time machine and that Lillith desperately wanted to make love to an alien?

Good times, yo. Good times.

That would be the ancient Norse god, Ikea, then. Makes sense.

I think Ikea is a woman.

Another decent fan recreation of the Enterprise

I'm surprised we didn't get anything more official from CBS. A beauty shot and some orthos would be pretty sweet.

Agreed. These guys have been stingy bastards.

I wasn't going to post this, except the thread has been revived, but we were talking about those triangles on the bottom of the saucer upthread and how the fan-made version(s) made them more square. In this video, @00:23 the view is straight on the port side triangle shape, and it's definitely a triangle. I only really noticed that 1 second view recently.

I say it's the shadow that does a triangle shape. If you look at the fan-made model we saw, source of light could easily make triangular shadows.

Thing is, the "triangle" changes location depending on the angle of the ship. If it were an actual triangle that shouldn't happen.

Well we have at least a right side and top view from Eaglemoss' poster at Destination Star Trek, so that's pretty close to official as they're given the CG files.

CBS won't put out anything official. I don't think they realize that it's even a thing that someone wants them to do.

See, they were actually triangle shaped on the TOS Connie, so as much as they have tinkered with the design, I think they are still triangle shaped areas (or landing strut covers, etc.).

But like @Belz... said, if they'd give us an official ortho, the argument would be over

 

[Tuskin38]

just wait for Eaglemoss to release their's, they are given the CG models used on the show, so that is pretty damn official.
