    Clearly if you turn the image upside-down, it is a Whale-Gnome-Dustbuster-Pharaoh in the architectural style of the Goa’uld/Ancient Ancients with a blowhole-mouth surprise.

      I’m definitely seeing that white light as a whale probe-style weapon.

      I bet the whales found no cetaceans on the ship so it was destroyed, with the crew taken for a menagerie - or to repopulate a planet the whale probe inappropriately cleared.

      Cerritos’ cetacean officers will save the day.

      Alternate hypothesis - the ship belongs to the clown-alien species of Voyager ‘The Thaw, because what could be more frightening than a clown ship?
