Ship's Operations | Detailing the operating practices of the USS Pandora. |
USS Pandora [ View Specifications » ] | |||
Main Bridge | The main center of ship operations, the bridge serves as the point from which the commanding officer manages the operation of the vessel along with the other bridge officers. | ||
Captain's Ready Room | The ready room is a private office reserved for the commanding officer's use. Here, the commanding officer can engage in administrative work with all relevant office equipment at hand without interfering with bridge operations. In addition, this room is usually the preferred place where the captain can hold private discussions and/or receive classified communications. | ||
Briefing Room | Senior Officers will congregate in the Briefing Room to discuss Starfleet orders, events, ship business, and missions. Meetings are generally called by the Commanding Officer or Executive Office, and will involve all Department Heads and Assistant Department Heads. | ||
Crew Quarters | Crew Quarters are divided into multiple decks of the USS Pandora: Deck 2 - Command Staff (CO, XO, 2nd Officer) Deck 3 - Senior Officers (Chief Officers, Guest Suites) Deck 4 - Middle Officers (Assistant Chief Officers) Deck 5 - Holosuites (temporary usage) Deck 8 - Junior Officers (Department officers) Deck 9 - Civilians (Service staff and passengers) Deck 15 - Starfighter Crew Sensor Pod - Lifeboat mode (emergency usage) |
||
Recreation Deck | Due to the Pandora's deep-space, long-haul missions, the vessel boasts an expanded Recreation Facilities Deck that encompasses Deck Five. Includes: - Pandora's Box, the ship's primary Mess Hall. - Crescent Cafe, a casual daytime eatery. - Luna Eclipse, the ship's primary Bar/Lounge. - Holodecks, for training and recreation purposes. - Gifted, an expansive gymnasium and fitness centre. - Daycare Centre, for the ship's many kids; from infants to children. - School & Education Centre, a school for primary and secondary students. |
||
Pandora's Box (Mess Hall) | Pandora's Box is the ship's main Mess Hall, dining area. It is an artistic, dramatically decorated room with interesting wall architecture and bold black and white furniture and tableware. | ||
Medical Deck | Sickbay is the main medical center aboard Federation starships. Sickbay was presided over by the chief medical officer (CMO), a senior staff member. The CMO was supported by various doctors and nurses. The area was also used for certain analyses of new lifeforms a starship might encounter, and for developing treatments for unknown diseases or illnesses. When rendering aid to a stricken planet or spacecraft, the sickbay staff treated and cared for the wounded. Med Deck also includes the Ship's Counselor's office, Research Laboratory, storage facilities, and a medical training room with library. |
||
Science Labs | The Majority of Deck 7 is dedicated to the Science Department of the USS Pandora. A science laboratory (for short, lab or science lab) is any area set-up for work in experimental or observational science. Areas like these are commonplace aboard exploration vessels such as Federation starships. | ||
Stellar Cartography / Astrometrics | Astrometrics was a specialized lab used aboard Federation starships for stellar cartographic purposes. Astrometrics was used for charting stars, planets, nebulae, and other stellar bodies. It contained a large wraparound wall screen which could display a stellar region three dimensionally. There were a series of control panels to manipulate the screen. The area below the screen and in front of the control panels could be used as a stage during presentations. Astrometrics also included three workstations on the side wall. | ||
Engineering Bay | Engineering's primary purpose is to be the central point for control of all engineering systems aboard a starship, especially those related to propulsion and power generation. The matter/antimatter reaction chamber (also known as the warp core) is located in Engineering. Engineering can also be used as a command and control center, overriding primary centers such as the Bridge or Auxiliary control. | ||
Transporter Room | A transporter room is part of an starship or space station which is specially outfitted to transport lifeforms and small inanimate objects. | ||
Cargo Bays | Cargo Bays are where equipment, supplies, personal items, and excess goods are stored for the duration of the Pandora's mission or service. | ||
Shuttle Bays | Shuttle Bays are where the Pandora's auxiliary craft are housed and launched during operation. The Pandora currently contains Two Shuttles (One an Emergency Medical craft) and one Runabout (the Captain's private craft). | ||
Sensor Pod | Luna Class vessels are adorned with an attached Sensor Pod, which are oval in shape, about 45 metres in length, and contain 3 standard decks. The Pods can be interchanged to a Weapons Pod with torpedoes if required. Due to her mission of scientific discovery and exploration, the USS Pandora is currently fitted with the Sensor Pod configuration, giving her advanced sensor attributes. The Sensor Pod is located above and aft of the top deck of the ship in order to avoid any electronic interference or sound disturbance from the vessel. The Sensor Pod contains three decks, which are considered Annex to the main ship's decks. |
