As you can see, R2D2 is floating through the debris field in a shot where the director obviously figured out that the audience attention would of course be on the giant Romulan ship, while completely ignoring this little robot floating gently to the left of the screen.
But here he is! Undeniable proof that R2D2 somehow was transported through space and time in order to witness the destruction of Vulcan.
I guess the chances are that he was then sucked into the black hole and sent far far away with all the debris from Vulcan...
*Update, although I found this a while back, it was the good folks over at Gizmodo who finally received confirmation from a source at ILM that this is the real deal. (thanks for the linkback!)
*Update, some people online are saying that this image is Photoshoped but I want to help prove that it is not. The best way to do this I have found is to play your copy of 'Star trek' with Media Player Classic and use the amazing frame advance feature to get the still... that's how I done it.
I am truly amazed that I seem to be one of the few people who spotted this, yay for me! lolz.

wooohooo, R2! thanks for doing this, I was curious about this easteregg, but would never make myself to do such thorough research :-D
Found it too! Appears at 47:39 into the movie. Awesome!
FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE ITS ALL FAKE I SCREEN ADVANCED AND DIDN'T SEE IT.
anyone know the time stamp of these frame captures?
Media player Classic -> Play -> Go to.. (Ctrl G)
00:47:40.606
R2 it's there!
On Blu Ray it is at 47:39
They arrive to the battle, encounter debris, evade the wreckage ship, that scratches ent. paint, spock turn around and there is for about 2 seconds rigth above zulu head, fron right to left. Not a fake. This little easter egg is the probe that the new ST makers are trying to dumb down Star Trek to the level of Star Wars. In the sequel science will be complete left over, phaser will be replace with light sabers and warp core is not longer need it, the ships will be powered by "the force". Cheers!
Sweet, I love star wars.
I found R2D2 on Blur-ray, time stamp is 47:39, So Cool! George Lucas would be proud! Took several digital photos of my TV screen.
