Observation Lounge Engineering Viewer — Shuttle Log Playback

A large, wall‑mounted engineering viewscreen of near‑black tempered glass set in a slim metallic bezel (roughly three to four feet across). The panel renders layered forensic overlays, time‑stamps and distorted shuttle camera video; audio plays through its speakers. Cold diagnostic light from the display throws Picard, Riker, Data, Geordi and Worf into hard relief as they lean forward, stunned by the panel’s clear, forensic replay of the shuttle’s destruction.
