To which ship-class does this bridge design belong?

Y'know...I think that might be the Prometheus. Not that quad-engined (Sex-engined? Fun, but no...HEX-engined!!) abomination from "Message In A Bottle," but the Nebula-class one from DS9s2 "Second Sight." There was a scene or 2 with Sisko, Seyetik, & the ship's captain on the bridge...but I don't think the XO & "mission specialist" seats were there.

It could be the Ent-D as seen in Generations or All Good Things...
I know that in one of those two they added the stations on the side.

And what is wrong with the Prometheus?

Are there 3 stations/seats in the middle of the Prometheus-Bridge?

No. There's only one seat in the center of the Prometheus bridge.

Falls don't hurt. It's the sudden stop when you reach the bottom that hurts.

I cannot recall ever seeing a bridge with it's tactical console in that location... But there are three bridges that I've never seen. I have seen a schematic of the Nebula Prometheus, however, and that bridge isn't it. So I'll say it's either the Saratoga or the Odyssey.

Do you have pics of these 2 bridges?
 
Posted by Fabrux (Member # 71) on :
 
Nope. If I had pics I would have seen them, no?

It's not the Saratoga....ref. page 7 of "The Making Of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" by the Reeves-Stevens (AKA "The Wonder Twins"). There's a bunch of production drawings there for sets for the first 2 episodes; among them is the Saratoga bridge; not square or rectangular...it's atually rather..um, "head-shaped."

It's a question from a quiz, and I don't know exactly if it is realy squared. This could be a simplification.

I'd have to say this is the pitifully cramped bridge of the USS Sutherland from "Redemption". Remember, Data and his XO bickering? His XO was always just to the side of his chair. And those design sketches of the Nebula class were on screens on the sides.

Sorry, don't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Well I'll de damned... I never would have thought the Sutherland!

The Sutherland had stations on either side and in back of the captains chair, IIRC...I don't know if it fits the above diagram.

I've ask the quizmaster for the correct answer, and *aargh*. This guy took the design from a fan-site and thought it is a canon design.

Speaking of bridge designs, bought DS9s "The Jem'Hadar" yesterday, and I got some good looks at the Odyssey bridge. It definatly looks like a redress of the Saratoga bridge, with some Enterprise-D elements added on. The tactical station is a silver railing, nothing like the E-D bridge. Behind it are some big consoles, but in the very middle of these consoles (directly behind the captain's chair), the wall is moved back, and there are more consoles. This is where the dedication plaque on the Saratoga had been. Off to the left (from the Captain's point of view) is the turbolift shaft, which I believe Sisko went through when escaping the bridge when it was the Saratoga

Could someone point me to a view of the Sutherland's bridge?
