Several weeks ago, AICN posted a image claiming it was the first picture of the redesigned U.S.S. Enterprise from J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek movie. But then CGI artist Gabriel Koerner confirmed this was actually one of his designs and not the Enterprise from the movie.
Then, the first real pic of the new Enterprise was revealed online, showing the saucer being built, but people are still thinking that Koerner design is the new ship from the movie.
"Star Trek (Reborn) is getting emails from people that think 'In the Harsh Light of Fate' is the script--or at least part of the script--for Abrams film; and the only reason they think that is becuase they also think Gabe's design is the Enterprise in the upcoming movie." said Jeremy Grunloh, creator and writer of the online fan series Star Trek (Reborn), which uses Koerner design as their starship.
"I think they're quite beautiful. A lot of nice work." Star Trek movie co-writer Roberto Orci told TrekMovie.com about Koerner design and images "You just can't deny the SHAPE of the ship, which is so great - so elegant."
Finally, Koener wrote the following message at TrekWeb message board :
"I am not involved in Paramount/Bad Robot Star Trek feature film directed by J.J. Abrams in any way, material or immaterial."
"My speculative designs and artwork have been mistaken for official production art because they share in concept the design assignments to the art department of this film."
"However, they are not, nor planned to be, nor ever planned to be, used by the production as official redesigned interpretations of Star Trek spacecraft, and there are not plans for this to change."
Well said, Gabe.
So, there you are. TrekWeb hopes this puts an end to this rumor.

"Oh well, at least we have yet ANOTHER link to that STR site posted here... Pssh."
What the hell?
For the two years 'Star Trek (Reborn)' has existed, Trekweb has featured a grand total of one full news-item referencing it: this one (although there was an early 'Tribblet'). And while I dont remember what it was about, the only other time a Trekweb news-item included a link to ST(R) was because there was a story involving Gabe's design, and there's pictures of it there.
Further, I dont even have a banner-link to ST(R) in my signature, unlike your free ENT game...which means you blatantly advertise it with every post you make.
"This isn't "news."
Yes, it is. Because it's a story that concerned an increasingly popular--though false--notion about the new film (which pertains to the interests of fandom).
"You might as well make a news headline that says "people still think the moon landing was faked."
Actually, that would be a story worth covering, as well as people that believe 9/11 was an 'inside-job', because a good number of folks actually do believe such things. The phenomena of people who continue to believe in demonstrably false ideas, in spite of evidence to the contrary, is a human interests story and would in fact be well worth a full expose on 60 minutes or Bill Moyers Journal.

The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on
my skin. But as the embers of the summer lost their
breath and disappeared, my heart went cold, and
only hollow rhythms resounded from within.

Like headlines reading "General Francisco Franco Still Dead".

"This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not Fate that butchers them or Destiny that feeds them to dogs. It's us. Only us."
