The decks of Constitution II-class Federation starship:


Constitution II class deck configuration

Constitution-class refit deck configuration

In a scene included in the script for Star Trek VI but not in the final version of that film, Deck 18 (referred to as "R Deck") was said to include science laboratories.

Background information[]

The following deck layouts come exclusively from the Star Trek Encyclopedia, by Michael Okuda and Denise Okuda.

A detailed partial cutaway sketch of the refit configuration

There is a discrepancy in The Making of Star Trek with the description of the primary hull as being eleven decks in height, but shown to be nine decks in height in a cutaway diagram. The secondary hull is stated to be sixteen decks in height, but shown in the diagram to be eight decks, with no exact locations given for the following features: fuel storage, supplies storage, main repair centers, water and waste reconversion, minimal quarters for engineers and star-drive personnel used only in the case of saucer separation and the hangar deck.

Captain Kirk's Quarters Signage

Captain Kirk's quarters door signage

A sign created for Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country showed Kirk's quarters on the USS Enterprise-A were on Deck 5, section 1, room 0179.
