Please expand on this article if you can.

The Main Bridge is located at the top of the Saucer section and is the command centre for the entire vessel. It is from here that the Captain and Senior staff take critical decisions and it is layed out as follows:

The Centre Chair is occupied by the USS Constitution's commanding Officer. To his left is a seat for the Ship's counsellor and to his right is a seat for the ship's First Officer. On either side of the seats are small stools which may be occasionally used by a visting senior officer to the Bridge .eg. the Chief Medical Officer.

In front of these centre seats are two consoles, to the left the Chief Operations Officer and to the right the helm officer who is currently also the Constitution's Second Officer.

The consoles to the left of the centre chairs are for Science Officers, meanwhile the consoles to the right of centre chairs are currently used by Security and Communications.

Tactical is run from the Bridge shaped console behind/above the centre chairs.

The consoles allong the back of the Bridge are interchangeable depending on the mission (eg on a science mission they may back up the science station but during a battle they may support tactical.) however at least one of them is designated as an Engineering console for engineers on the Bridge and usually environmental controls operate on another.
