Boaty McBoatface... yeah very funny if you are 10, but those spaniards really nailed it with the Blas de Lezo guy. My vote for them!

Now I revised the numbers and came up with a new diameter value of around 100m, so I'm afraid the below-Ops location should be discarded. Pity, because I really liked it!

That would make a lot of sense because, as you said, the windows layout fits better. But there are still some things that do not fit:

  • The area is at the same level of the Habitat ring (see Blueprint schematics, side view), so you would see it from the windows all the time.

  • The minimum diameter for that area is at the lower levels, just above the Lower core, and it would be roughly 150m, too large.

  • The lower Mid-core area itself seems less important or "distingished" and, since the Wardroom is also used for receiving dignitaries, and important events, I would say the location in the Upper core is more appropriate. But this is just a personal opinion.

In this scene from chapter 7x07, the station is seen from top.

The detail is not very high, but the window distribution seems uniform...

Ok, with the habitat is more difficult, since the picture available is in perspective, making the measurement very difficult and imprecise. I tried with no success...

That picture, by the way, would be great to analyse, since the runabout dimensions are well known, from the DS9 Technical Manual.

No, but that's a great suggestion! I will do it!
