The bridge of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} is an Omega-pattern bridge<ref name="warfleetPOA">'''[[Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo|Halo: Warfleet]]''' - ''p. 24-25''</ref>, and consists of several consoles devoted to various functions. There is a large domed viewport at the front of the room which looks out into space. This was evidently meant to be armored before the ''Autumn'' 's mission but there hadn't been time. The navigation and helm control officers are suspended in this dome. There are six consoles which line the sides of the room, and two in the center. The Captain or Commander of the ship stands before a large tactical map which can provide a series of important pieces of information. The [[holotank]] for the ship's [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] is also located near the Captain's station. At the time of its arrival in the [[Soell]] system, the ''Autumn'' 's bridge was manned by fourteen officers.
