First pic hasn't been proven to be official yet, but I think it is. The ship's name seems to be "U.S.S. BIDDEFORD," which is a city in Maine. The registry is the same as the Newton-type ship seen in the same movie.
The second pic is of a display in Marcus's office. There's a lot of info, but for the S&T part, we see four top-view diagrams of ships; two are the nuEnterprise type in two different sizes, one is similar to the Excelsior, and one is a more curvy, futuristic-looking ship, although it has what looks to me like the same bridge module as the NX-01.

Is the first photo from a cut scene? Because I'm pretty sure it's not in the final film.

Yep, it's supposedly a deleted scene.

Is it just me or does the USS Biddeford look like an old Constitution Class starship to me?
Are the screenshots from the second link visible in the movie, too? In which scene?

Double post.

Yes it is. And that's just damn peculiar. The Kelvin already demonstrated that the timeline was screwy, and so to have a classic Constitution at all even/especially with a low registry is just odd.
And it isn't like it can be passed off as a deleted scene stand-in, I wouldn't think, given the apparent work done to it (e.g. the registry).

Here's the thing: If this was indeed a deleted scene, it was deleted for a reason, and I think I know what that reason is.
This "0718" thing is obviously someone's in-joke. Another ship has that registry, and the bald science officer cyborg-y dude's name was 0718. This Connie with the same number is just another instance of this (which is why I believe the shot is real). But I'm sure someone just knew that us Trekkies would go apeshit if we saw this in the film, so they wisely cut it out, because it would have just been too much even as a joke. Unfortunately it surfaced somehow. But it wasn't in the finished film, so at most it's just an interesting curiosity and nothing more.

I think the first photo is fake. The ship looks like it's been superimposed over the footage.
Posted by Guardian 2000 (Member # 743) on :
I am reasonably certain that no one except those of us here would ever cut a scene because the spaceship wasn't quite right in the continuity.
Posted by Dukhat (Member # 341) on :
My theory was that the scene was cut because of the ship's in-joke name and registry, not because of the ship itself.

Someone over at the TrekBBS figured out that this ship was actually a fan design based on the Makin Class from FASA, with the NX-01 superimposed on it. Kinda nifty.

It also looks like this fanon design called the Atraiu as well.

I dont know what to think about this- on one hand, someone is certainly the detrektive(TM) for catching it...on the other, it's very nice outside with girls and sunshine and velociraptors and such.

The big blue room is scary. Whoever controls the thermostat is incapable of leaving the setting alone, there doesn't seem to be an exterminator, and even the overhead light goes out daily.
