[Update] Star Trek Show Reveals Full Title And (Possibly Ralph McQuarrie Inspired) New Ship In Teaser

There is a fair amount of excitement surrounding Star Trek coming back to TV. It was announced a while now, but has remained mostly elusive.

Well, we got two key details in a new teaser for the show. First of all, the show's full title is Star Trek: Discovery. Secondly, if you watch the video, you will get a look at the new ship. It certainly isn't like anything else in featured as the show's previous main ship, but I quite like its angular look. It is, efficently, called the USS Discovery NCC-1031.

Take a look here.

Interesting tid-bit, this is quite similar to an early Ralph McQuarrie drawing for the ill fated Star Trek: Planet of the Titans. I assume that isn't an accident.

[Update] Just a quick detail I missed fromt he panel: This series is set in the Prime timeline, but showrunner Bryan Fuller refused to say exactly when it will take place.
