I just found this little nugget of gold on (surprisingly enough) Wikipedia: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3b/Star_Trek_%28film%29_bridge_panorama_.jpg

Its on the Blu-Ray release.  ;)

Thought you had the film on Blu-Ray?
Can't wait for 2014 to start.

It was also on the movie's website for quite some time, and may still be up. ;)

Also, consider this.  The "black holes" created by the red matter are artificial in nature.  There is also on-screen evidence that aforementioned singularities aren't permanently fixed.  Example: When the Narada arrives in 2233, the singularity is visible behind the ship.  However, when the battle begins in earnest, the singularity is apparently gone, something that is confirmed by the wide shot after the Kelvin's suicide run and the shuttles are escaping the Narada.  The singularity is nowhere to be seen in that shot.

However, the singularity that swallowed Vulcan may indeed be permanently fixed.  Why?  When the Enterprise flies away from the collapsing planet, in Vulcan's place is a dark void through which no stars are visible.  Now, this may have just been a goof on the part of ILM, but I don't think so.

Well I think that is because the black hole that brought the Narada didn't get nearly as much fuel as Vulcan did, so that black hole will last longer because Vulcan provided much more fuel

That makes sense.

Here's somehing I kind of thought about...where and when did the remains of the Narada go? Something had to have came out the other side.

I think it was mentioned earlier that the Narada (when intact) contained technology that made it able to survive the black hole. As we saw, the Narada got sort of squished up si presumably that black hole surviving technology was lost in the black hole so no Narada bits coming out the other side of the black hole.

There's a fleet chart on Bernd Schneiders site. Might come in handy for modelers.

Hotlinking to Ex Astris Scientia never works. Image uploaded. The only problem with that picture is that it only shows the early stages of the ship design and they all look to be roughly the same size anyway.

USS Mayflower looks pretty much like Miranda.. which it probably is. but there are slight difference in saucer sizes according to those pictures. I guess that the smaller ones used Kelvin-sized saucer and the rest used constitution-size..

Why is one red?

Its brown actually. Also the reason given was that it was a stand-in/placeholder for a diffirent class that never made it into the movie. The name alone should be a dead give away that that exact ship would never be. Though it is interesting that they removed the rollbar on the Mayflower(though its possible reg/names were moved around) for the movie maybe because it  looked too Reliant/Miranda like and most likely they decided to remove it for that reason.

I like the design for the newton! Although didn't it have more of a saucer in the movie rather than the semi circle?

Looks red to me.

And those ships are only like that cos it was "early concept" designs.

Incorrect.  The black hole that brought the Narada, by that logic, should have theoretically lasted a long time because it was devouring a supernova, not just a planet.

Those are pretty cool concept designs, even though they ended up slightly different in the movie.

Just looks like a blur to me.

...Probably not, but the number I get(379.6m) could be considered ?original intent,? a term that I think I will be using from now on, and ?canon? be damned.

That is a really bad screencap.  No offense.  It just doesn't show what you intended it to show very well. :P

Might be that it's from a dvd-rip. :P
