The "1701-D" thing was pointed out by Trekyards... However they seem to have completely missed the total lack of the big blue arboretum windows behind the shuttlebay.

Doubt the hologram actually is of the Enterprise 1701-D (which would be long disassembled after it's crash on Veridian III). More likely whoever used whatever model to create the hologram effect, simply forgot to remove the label. Probably just a generic Galaxy Class, possibly refitted after the Dominion War (which explains the lack of arboretum, and the mirrored shuttlebays on the neck).

I think some people are trying to find anything to "nitpick" about at this point. 11 years ago, when the first teaser for the JJ Trek was released, I remember the outrage online, because the ship didn't have the right FONT... Nevermind the fact that the teaser didn't even have the right SHIP :P

Speaking of TrekYards, here's two comparison pictures from their video on the Romulan BoP

lookit all the patch panels on that BoP.  the Roms are really having to scrape the bottom of their old barrels to stay alive.

So the preview for Issue 1 of the Picard Prequel comic coming out this week confirms a couple things
https://ca.startrek.com/gallery/preview-idws-star-trek-picard-countdown-1/star-trek-picard-countdown-1-511

Spoiler: show
Picard's humanitarian mission is connected to the Supernova what wipes out Romulus, Riker and Deanna are still on the titan, and the Enterprise-E is still in service under a new captain, all as of 2385.
Also the bridge of Admiral Picard's flagship is based off the Odyssey Class from Star Trek Online. But I'm not going to take that as a confirmation that the ship class will show up in the show, it could be artistic licence, or CBS didn't give the artist a new design to use

So who's in command of the Enterprise? Following the storyline of the previous Countdown comic, or someone else?

Spoiler: show
Also, wasn't the Odyssey Class NEW in 2409 (according to STO) ? Should not exist as an active ship in 2385.

They're ignoring the ST09 Countdown comic for the series, so maybe someone new. It won't be Data we know that for sure.

Spoiler: show
STO isn't canon, so the Odyssey can exist whenever the comic writer/CBS wants it to exist. They don't need to follow the game's storyline (Which they shouldn't IMO)

Might wanna include, "She said YES!"

A lovely moment onscreen, but clearly it was preplanned before. So it's pretty much confirmed, she'll be in Season 2.

So I watched the first episode...

I like it had a startrek feel desipite the change made to "the federation"
Spoiler: show
(the change is the isolationism or atleast thats how i interpreted picards remarks in the interview)


I cant wait for the next episode (didnt think id say that about trek these days :) )

I saw the second episode of Picard yesterday. It was interesting and fun to watch. I look forward to seeing some of the new starships, or at least seeing some of the great ones. Perhaps the Enterprise-E is still in service?

So far I'm loving it!
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.
