New ‘Star Trek’ series to be called ‘Discovery’
The Star Trek franchise has always been about seeking out new worlds and adventures in a time that is better than our own, and Discovery is a needed breath of fresh air in the midst of the turmoil gripping our own world.

Other Star Trek alumni participating in the panel included Next Generation’s Brent Spiner, and Michael Dorn, as well as Voyager’s Jeri Ryan and Enterprise’s Scott Bakula.
A teaser for Star Trek Discovery was revealed at the panel, which showed a ship labeled as the USS Discovery launching out to space. You can see the new ship in a teaser below.
Alex Kurtzman, Bryan Fuller and Rod Roddenberry have been announced as executive producers, with Nicholas Meyer (director of The Wrath of Khan and The Undiscovered Country and co-writer of The Voyage Home) is serving as a writer and consulting producer.
The first images of the starship U.S.S. Discovery (which appears to be our main character vessel for the new show) hit Comic Con yesterday with the intriguing numerical designation of NCC-1031.
It snowballed into a cultural phenomenon in the 1970s and 80s, making household names of the late Leonard Nimoy, who played the half-human, half-Vulcan “Mr Spock”, and William Shatner, who played Captain James T. Kirk.
“We’re telling stories in a brand new way, not so much episodic”, he told a rapt Comic-Con audience. But beyond that, he revealed little else. For starters, the executive producer admits that the design of the Discovery was based on the 70s designs for the Enterprise, done by Ralph McQuarrie, though he says he can’t comment further on that until legal constraints have been eliminated.

“It is in the prime timeline”, Bryan said. “We’re telling a 13-chapter story in this first season”. The concepts of the ship are totally what we’re going for and they’ll be honed up until, I think, the day we deliver.
