We ’re getting closer and nearer , at long last , to Star Trek : Discovery ’s arrival , and that signify more and more glimpse of the show ’s shiny new take on Star Trek past times . Yesterday we gota new - and - improved lookat the titular ship , but now we have a heavy feeling at the show ’s raw - old take on Star Trek ’s iconic technical school .
Ahead of the show ’s appearing at Comic - Con this week , the Discovery Twitter account has been releasing abbreviated snippets that give us some very close looks at the tech Starfleet ’s finest will wear during their boldly going on the show . First up was the delta badge ( earlier just the badge of the Enterprise , but now retroactively shoot as the general Starfleet logo ) , which , you live … looks like a badge .

And then , today , we get our tone at the Hellenic Phaser , which probably let in the most significant changes from its Original Series predecessor ( or successor , I reckon , given Discovery ’s early place in the Trek timeline ) .

Texturally , it ’s definitely a lot more varied than theoriginal phaser pistol — sacrifice some of the simplicity of the original for a more varied -looking design while save most of the Graeco-Roman pattern elements . But the bountiful change is in the existent cask of the phaser itself . Gone is the little nib , put back with three asymmetric piston chamber that make the new phaser almost bet like an old - timey photographic camera . possibly they ’re for unlike mount of phaser volume ?
While it decidedly evokes the iconic original , it feel in a sight of ways like thephasers designed forUSS Kelvin personnel(but not actually visit ) in the 2009 Star Trek movie . The other tech shares a interchangeable aesthetic , which makes a certain amount of sense , regard that Discovery is arrange in a like period to when the Kelvin was operating — before , you know , that whole parallel macrocosm thing sound off in .
Star Trek : Discovery finally radiate to television receiver and CBS All Access on September 24 .
