It seems likely (judging by the battle scenes) that Fed ships fire red beams, while enemy ships fire blue beams (whether they are phaser beams or some other sort by the 26th century is another matter). So, that would make that particular ship an enemy one.

A generation is approximately twenty years. So,the Enterprise in question would be a ship which predates Capt. Kirk's ship and postdates Capt. Archer's ship.

Okay, so assuming they're not lying about the E-J, it is then the same Enterprise - just three generations later from an alternate timeline (thinking DS9 "Children of Time" here). This explains at least one of the crew. Damn, I'm good.

Though I consider 20 years too early an age to be interested in children (after all, if people are living longer by then, why not postpone having a family?)... Hmmm... Let's say 30 years instead, then it could be the NCC-1701 under Robert April.

And apparently it's more complicated than that, according to TrekWeb, from whom TrekToday took it.
quote: Of the upcoming episode "E2" Berman confirms speculation that the NX-01 will encounter a future Starship Enterprise. Apparently the ship will be three generations from the future, but itself involved in some sort of time-travel hijinks. In an appearance on ON AIR WITH RYAN SEACREST today, Jolene Blalock made reference to playing T'Pol 200 years-old and with prosthetics, perhaps a spoiler for this episode.
A 200-year-old T'Pol when she's supposed to currently be around 60-70 would make it from 130-140 years in the future...

Windows on DS9 were ovoid.
The indentions on the walls, the monitor displays and the 'interface', the distant door, the colour and that round sticker on the right of the window all look Cardassian-like.

Maybe the "three generations" are the same sort of generations that put Archer's great-grandfather in the Eugenics Wars.

Everyone knows that a full head of hair is soooo 24th Century.
Next episode: in the left corner, we have a NCC-1701(?) Enterprise that we might actually care about and trust! In the right corner, we have the underdog NX-01, whose existence will finally be validate by a future Enterprise! Leeeeeeets get ready to rumble~!

Yes, the thought crossed my mind too. But wasn't it Archer's grandfather, rather?

I'm assuming the graphic of the Ent-J behind archer and daniels was an external graphic and not a MSD. My idea for the foward secion was that it was the same material the Wells-Class ship was made of. (Wierd thermal-texture like material)
