Maybe it was particulate space matter reflecting the glow from the warp nacelles?

That, or sub-atomic tachiardic cosmic rays being red-shifted into the visible spectrum by the high relative increase in newtonian velocity?

I believe the particulate space matter is the official explanation.

Since its slipping up over the front of the ship, its most likely from the loos in ten forward

Really? That’s boring.

It occurs to me that it could just be some of the millions of tiny needles that were launched into space in the 20th century.
