Or perhaps the tech on our Enterprise's new spikeless nacelles is more environmentaly safe - hardly an issue for a warmongering empire.

Or they just didn't give a shit about making them retractable.

Yeah, if the phasers are out and the torpedo launchers are offline, you can always impale your enemy on those spikes. We bad!

Maybe they vibrate, too? Then they'd double as both a weapon AND a sex toy, a perfect fit for the Mirror Universe?

Hmm... Seems the mirror ship is consistently the spiky-scoop, high-dome version after all.

And I dig the two-tone Halka. If' they'd just CGI a slightly more believable scar for mirror Sulu...

I'm a little surprised no one has mentioned the other blatant feature of the pilot Enterprise -- the large-radius sensor dish.

There are also no 'balls' at the back of each nacelle.

I'd kind of accept that as a "duh" as they have the front spikes, both of which nacelle versions had no balls at the other end. [Wink]
