Bridge Long‑Range Sensor Console (Neutrino Detection)
A flush‑mounted, wide‑angled bridge console that integrates a bank of compact sensor modules and emitter/receiver nodes for long‑range electromagnetic, subspace, and particle (neutrino) detection. Glass and holo panels display pale gridlines, spectral traces, timestamped pings/fixes, particle‑flux graphs and compact diagnostic tables while clustered tactile controls, touch strips, and small amber and green indicator lamps provide hands‑on manipulation. The array hums and pulses when Wesley’s neutrino beacon registers; officers (notably Data, Picard, Worf, and Beverly) lean in to isolate, verify and act on the telemetry, which drives tactical/astrometric decisions during the episode "Booby Trap."

Purpose
To detect, isolate, and verify particle and energy signatures (including neutrino beacons) and deliver real‑time telemetry and diagnostic readouts to bridge officers for tactical and navigational decision‑making.
Significance
The array converts desperation into actionable hope by confirming Wesley’s neutrino beacon despite atmospheric interference, enabling Worf’s launch and focusing the crew’s rescue efforts; it functions as the technical hinge that shifts the scene from crisis to possibility.
