Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I love that above image, created by Gabe Koerner, who you may remember as being one of the central figures of the Star Trek fan doc TREKKIES. It's a beautiful image, something that would be impressive to see on the big screen.
So, I love it and I hate it. We've been getting it emailed to us for what seems like years. Because it is so well done, everybody thinks it's from JJ Abrams' movie. It is not... and it's possible Abrams' final version won't be as nice as Gabe's work, but it's not from the flick.
Every few months or so the picture pops up and we have to respond to those who email in with it with something like what I've written above. Now it's on Digg and we're getting a large number of emails about it. We appreciate the readers sending us information and that information is what gives this site its identity. We just want to make it clear to everyone that the above image of the Enterprise is not what we'll see in JJ Abrams' STAR TREK.
