We chat about why people love starships, why the design of the Enterprise endured, how the new designs seen in the Kelvin movies and Star Trek: Discovery fit, and designing a unique visual language for alien ships.

We also touch on the news that the new Picard series will take place in 2399, which is a stone’s throw away from the early 25th century were Star Trek Online takes place.

During the show Thomas mentioned the work of senior concept designer Hector Ortiz. A sampling of his impressive work can be seen at Hector’s portfolio.
