STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE
TMP Enterprise Concepts
Landing Bay
2

Moving to the higher angle, we start with these items.

First, there are the cargo door details.  Because the upper level catwalks continue into the landing bay,
I came up with a segmented door that would fully open and still allow for that passage.  You can see that
the door support channels
, in this painting, don't equal the number of door segments.  Let's all pretend that they do.




The elevators move up & down mounted on side metallic vertical pieces exclusively.  They have no central
supports, allowing them to descend completely into the deck below.  The dividing piece between elevators,
(not visible here) is normally in it's 'up' position, supporting the inboard sides of the elevators.
During replenishment operations, it is recessed for easier cargo passage.


Taking a look at the catwalk running aft, you see how it narrows, conforming to the ship sides.
Unfortunately, I overlooked that angle detailing on the hanger level below.



Again, the angled WorkBee bays are evident here. 
Also notice the double doors for  pressure security, should the Landing Bay be open to space.
