IIRC it's not moving at all, but anyway in universe that ain't the Falcon (it's probaly the model of the Falcon, but...)

So, First Contact DVD owners which direction is it flying?
To the left, at breakneck speed. I couldn't get a clearer image, though.

Considering the Sector 001 Battle has at least four new never-before-seen ship classes, I dont' see the problem.

There are stories of Trek ships in some or all of SW movies as easter eggs
When Ben and Luke sell the speeder in ANH, the thing coming in for a landing is either a Klingon Bird-of-Prey or a Hapan ship. :P

Since the first BoP wasn't created til 1984, it's either the latter or something else

Err-the Hapans weren't introduced until much later than 1984 so I think we can assume it was something else.

No, in the Special Edition. A good deal of ships flying overhead were added to the Mos Eisley scenes.

Hmm, it could be the Falcon. But it also looks like the hull of a Miranda as well. The lump off the side that could be the Falcon's cockpit, could be a bit of the weapons role bar seen at the angle.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

John Knoll said that he put a CGI model of the Enterprise somewhere on Coruscant in TPM. That's the only Star Trek ship in a Star Wars film.
However, there is suppossed to be an Asgard ship slipped into the ROTS battle
