First Photos From Special Sets Built For "In a Mirror, Darkly" (SPOILERS)

Features

By Steve Krutzler / 17:31, 25 January 2005 / Enterprise

As previously reported, "In a Mirror, Darkly" will take STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE into the mirror universe first visited in ST:TOS's "Mirror, Mirror." Many fan films in recent years have revisted the classic TREK era and now ENTERPRISE is about to venture back to the future itself. Large portions of these episodes will involve action on the U.S.S. Defiant from the TOS episode "The Tholian Web," which apparently arrived in the 22nd century mirror universe when it vanished in the classic episode.

As a Constitution Class ship, the Defiant was identical to the classic Starship Enterprise, and the ENTERPRISE production team has been tasked with recreating many sets. The episodes began production this week at Paramount and SaveEnterprise.com has published several photographs fresh from the lot.

For the full gallery, visit this page or this page.

SaveEnterprise urges all fans to express their support for the fifth STAR TREK series in letters to UPN and CBS president Leslie Moonves, and to contribute to the group's efforts to raise money to place a USA Today ad showing fan support for a fifth season of the show. You can write Moonves at:

Mr. Leslie Moonves
Co-President, Co-Chief Operating Officer
Viacom International, Inc.
c/o CBS Television City
7800 Beverly Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90036-2112

Visit this page for more information on the letter writing campaign, and EnterpriseFans.com for info on the USA Today effort.

In all the Mirro-Universe books and novels they explain that "Federation/Terran Empire" ships are closer in design to Klingon Dreadnoughts than science vessels.

In "Dark Mirror" it explained that the ISS-Enterprise ICC-1701-D was closer to being a Dreadnought-class than a Galaxy-class...

...so all of this would actually make sense...also too, Scotty made a statement in "Mirror, Mirror" that the phasers on the ISS-Enterprise ICC-1701 were extremely powerful...

having advanced technology would bring leaps and bounds into weaponry for the Empire.

Also, captains in the Terran Empire pretty much keep what they have. Mirror-Captain Kirk stole the Tantalus Field from a scientist and was not available to anyone in the fleet...so one never knows, Commander Archer could possibly keep this vessel till god knows when...

...but more likely I go with the fact that Terran Empire vessels LOOK like Federation starship..yet their fire power is immensely more powerful...
