Directly in front of the Carsi holographic avatar is the stations for the Helm on the left and the OPS station on the right. The Helm is usually manned by the on duty Flight Control Officer, while the OPS station is manned by the on duty Operations Officer. Directly in front of the Helm/OPS console is the Main Viewscreen.
To Carsi's 2-o'clock position is the main Science station. This is usually manned by the Science Officer on duty.
To Carsi's 3-o'clock position is the entrance to a small hallway leading to the Captain's Ready Room, the Observation Lounge, and the Briefing Room.
To Carsi's 4-o'clock position is the Bridge Engineering Station, for when the Chief Engineer transfers Engineering controls to the Bridge.
Behind Carsi at the 5 to 6-o'clock positions are the backup Science stations or Library retrieval units. They can be used for either purpose.
Just behind Carsi is the Command Chair, used by which ever Bridge Officer is on Command duty.
To Carsi's 7-o'clock position is the Environmental Systems Station.
To Carsi's 8-o'clock position is the main Security/Tactical console. This is usually manned by the Security/Tactical Officer on duty.

HC&C, (Holographic Command & Control) - The HCC, located on deck 2 just below the main bridge of the ship, is a system similar to the Holodeck and Astrogation Lab; however both systems have been joined. The duty Command crew can observe the situation they find themselves in from a 3D perspective: they can actually appear to walk through space and look upon unknown ships or spatial events or control Multiple vessels.
Admiral Kiel's Quarters - Normally stationed on Starbase 39-Sierra. Admiral Kiel will sometimes use the Ascendant to travel to important meetings and diplomatic functions. She has stored personal items such as some of her bowling trophies as well as full closets of her clothes and uniforms.
Admiral Kiel's Office - Admiral Kiel has an office built into the design of the Ascendant. This is a place that she can do her administrative work, while the Ascendant ferries her to her current destination.
Captain's Quarters - This is the quarters of Commodore Kristine Rardon. One section of her quarters has been converted into a small artist's studio where she can spend hours relaxing painting some of the fabulous landscapes on planet's she has been on. She also has a bookcase in her sleeping quarters with many old books that she enjoys.
Bowling Alley 2.1 - Admiral Kiel is an avid bowler. Since this is the Flagship of Admiral Kiel's 12th fleet, they put in a regulation size bowling alley for her recreation.
Holographic Computer Relay Systems - These are holographic computer controlled systems that provide service to the HC&C as well as to the Carsi avatar.

Chief Medical Officer's Office - The CMO's office shows the peculiar interests of Dr. Crescent. Contrary to his pasifistic nature the walls are decorated with an assortment of bladed weapons from various cultures. You can spot at least a Klingon Bat'leth, an Andorian Ushaan-tor and a Vulcan Lirpa among others. All neatly hanging on the walls or in stands.
