Some starships look like cruise ships. Others look like warehouses with nacelles. Either way, Star Trek would not be the same without the myriad vessels shown over the past 50-plus years. Star Trek: Discovery has given us great new designs and updated one of the franchise’s most iconic ones: the USS Enterprise NCC-1701.
In this episode of The Edge, hosts Liam Smart, Brandi Jackola, and Nick Collinson discuss the hero ships of Star Trek: Discovery, including the Constitution (USS Enterprise), Crossfield (USS Discovery and USS Glenn), Nimitz (USS Europa), and Walker (USS Shenzhou) classes.
