U.S.S. Enterprise Bridge | Deck 1 (2271)
This bridge followed many of the designs that came before and after it, with a few notable exceptions. The weapons and defense station featured a large translucent tactical dome, there was an internal bridge transporter station, and a more luxurious captain’s chair. Several other new pieces of hardware could also be seen around the bridge.
PRODUCTION INFO
Ship Model (Concept and Physical)
As portrayed in Star Trek: Phase II (Production Artwork, 1977)
Early development of the television series referred to as Star Trek: Phase II featured a refurbished design for the U.S.S. Enterprise by Matt Jefferies and designer Joseph Jennings. A 6’ model was constructed but never completed.
Bridge Set (Concept)
As portrayed in Star Trek: Phase II (Production Artwork, 1977)
Joe Jennings and Michael Minor reworked the bridge design for the planned Star Trek: Phase II television series. The sets were partially constructed but were ultimately reworked for Star Trek: The Motion Picture when the television series was ultimately scrapped. The Roddenberry Archive art team has used production art by Minor to show what that set might have looked like had it been completed.
