CNET: 'Star Trek: Discovery' is name of new Trek series, featuring a new ship, the USS Discovery

The title of the 2017 CBS TV series is revealed at Comic-Con, along with a new spacecraft for the Trek crew.

The future of the Star Trek universe will be full of Discovery...the USS Discovery that is.

The ship was unveiled as part of the Star Trek 50th anniversary panel Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con, where the name of the 2017 CBS TV series was also unveiled: "Star Trek: Discovery."

Showrunner Bryan Fuller said at a later event that the new series will take place in the "prime" timeline, which is the one broken away from by the 2009 "Star Trek" film.
