This Enterprise design featured a proportionally smaller saucer atop a triangular-shaped engineering hull with updated warp engines.

U.S.S. Enterprise Bridge Deck 1 | (2270)

This bridge design featured a larger space divided into two distinct levels. Accessible both by ramp and an angled translucent turbolift shaft, the upper level was the command platform, featuring the captain’s chair on a raised dais directly behind the pilot and navigator’s seats. Lining the perimeter of the lower level were banks of support control stations, each one having an unobstructed view of the bridge’s large, wraparound viewing screen. Affixed to the ceiling of the bridge was a holographic navigational chart.

Ship Model (Concept)

For the unfilmed production Planet of the Titans, production designer Ken Adam and illustrator Ralph McQuarrie developed designs for the U.S.S. Enterprise that differed from that of Star Trek: The Original Series in proportion and shape, including a secondary hull shaped like an arrowhead, reminiscent of the star destroyers from Star Wars. This design later inspired the starship design of the U.S.S. Discovery in Star Trek: Discovery.

Bridge Set (Concept)

As portrayed in Star Trek: Planet of the Titans (Production Artwork, 1976)

The interior of the U.S.S. Enterprise, including its command deck, was designed by Ken Adam. It bore resemblance to designs featured in the film Things To Come (1936), designed and directed by William Cameron Menzies. The Roddenberry Archive art team has created a visual rendering based on production art by Adam to show what the bridge set might have looked like had it been constructed.
