This may be from ST:TMP - where we see Science Station Epsilon 9
being attacked by V'ger. We see the station "patterned" (destroyed),
but then we continue to see V'ger afterwards. This also happened
earlier in the movie when Epsilon 9 was picking up video from a
Klingon ship being attacked by V'ger, and continued to receive
the images after the ship was destroyed.

This may be another one of those damn "inconsistencies" that
I hate to acknowledge.
