Last night on the official Star Trek: Discovery social media channels – both Facebook and Twitter – a new show logo debuted, updating the now-familiar ‘broken delta’ design to a more period-appropriate shaping.
The new sculpting of the Starfleet delta still remains ‘split,’ but now overlaps rather than showing a large gap between each section.
The familiar Trek design, typically used as the USS Enterprise ship’s symbol in the era during which the show is to take place – approximately a decade before Kirk’s tenure – was first seen on-screen on Captain Pike’s crew in “The Cage.”
There’s still no word on the meaning behind the split delta design – but now that the show’s in production up in Toronto, hopefully more detail on the show’s premise will arrive soon.
