The "Enterprise" appears in "" (2017–present), and it will appear in the upcoming series "." Both spinoffs occur about a decade before the events in the original "Star Trek". John Eaves, Scott Schneider, and William Budge redesigned the "Enterprise" for "Discovery". The designers had an unusually long time to work on the ship: April to October 2017, whereas they usually had only a few weeks to design a ship. Other than a few small notes, they were given no explicit direction about the ship's appearance; Schneider called the redesign project the trio's "golden hour".
