Confirmed: R2-D2 Finally Discovered In Star Trek
By Jesus Diaz, Nov 15, 2009

" At last, here's the droid we were all looking for. In this frame you can clearly see R2-D2's cameo in JJ Abrams' Star Trek. This time there's absolutely no doubt about it: It's been confirmed by ILM.

Can you see him floating there, on the left, right below the huge arrow that I also missed when I saw the movie? That's obviously him, a fact that has been confirmed to me by one of the movie's sequence supervisors at Industrial Light & Magic—the same guy who said this previous sighting was just the shuttle.

I don't know about you but, right now, I feel like what I imagine my dog Jones feels every time I take his collar off to scratch his neck. Oh yesyeyeyeyes. YES. Harf. Woof. "

R2-D2 is from Star Wars, a franchise very similar to Star Trek :dabs:

I have a feeling the folks at ILM (a Lucas owned company) sneaked it in the film.
