Star Trek: Discovery had design continuity issues from the beginning, and the U.S.S. Enterprise only complicated matters.
Production is expected to begin in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for more Enterprise-ing details of Star Trek: Discovery Season 2.
Questions of design also came up in an earlier Discovery episode, as images of Enterprise sister ship U.S.S. Defiant showed heavy modifications to the original design.
The task started with the guideline that the Enterprise for Discovery had to be 25% different, otherwise production would have most likely been able to use the original design from the 60’s.
