The U.S.S. Enterprise. You have to love her. She looks terrific warping, firing photon torpedoes, submerged in water, and even on fire, doomed and crashing. What a girl. How many ships can do all of that and look amazing doing it?
With the arrival of Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) who could possibly have imagined the seeds of a story by Carey Wilber and the legendary Gene L. Coon (1924-1973; the other great Gene) captured for the Star Trek: The Original Series Season One episode Space Seed (February 1967) would endure and span more than forty-five years? Like Star Trek itself, those are inspired ideas and characters that have truly stood the test of time.

The old gal is certainly one of the best aspects of the new film, alright.
Amen. I want to see it again just to watch all of the special effects. Now that is CGI done right. WOW!
