command deck
Captain's control center
The command deck is the primary control center of a spacecraft, starship, or large vessel—where the captain and senior officers direct operations.
The term appears mainly in science fiction: The captain strode onto the command deck.
It may also describe the bridge area of naval vessels or the operations floor of a facility.
