That's where the guy in charge is. I've only seen him once or twice, but he's extra mean.Sally

The bridge is an open, two-tiered deck on Mothership Zeta in 2277. It serves as the ship's main control room. Several aliens reside here along with the alien captain.

Layout[]

Mothership Zeta's bridge consists of several distinct areas or compartments.

  • An entry compartment contains
    • a workbench to the extreme rear
    • a transporter to the Capital Wasteland (only functions after the quest is completed)
    • a stasis unit (alien "bed") on the left (port) side of the compartment
    • a door connecting this compartment with the rest of the bridge.
  • A "captain's compartment", immediately forward of the entry compartment, contains
    • a transporter to the engineering section on the left (port) side
    • a healing archway on the right (starboard) side
    • doors on the fore and aft sides of the compartment.
  • The central portion of the bridge contains
    • a door on the left-hand side after first walking through the doorway into the bridge. It is through this door that Toshiro Kago will enter if he is still alive.
    • the captain's chair toward the front of this area. Before it is a button to fire the death ray and (to the left of that button) three other buttons to adjust the ship's shields.
    • four generator-reset buttons, two on either side of the main bridge compartment. A holographic image appears above a button if that button needs to be reset.
    • a death ray aiming workstation to the left of the captain's chair (the player character cannot operate it, but Sally manages to do so); and
    • assorted nonworking workstations in two slightly lowered areas behind the captain's chair.
  • A forward observation area is located below and in front of the main bridge area (reached by stairs on either side).

Notable loot[]

Related quests[]

The bridge is the last level in the mothership, where the player fights the alien captain and a hostile alien ship.

Notes[]

  • The death ray can still be fired and the shields adjusted after the completion of the add-on questline.
  • There are three buttons to the left of the main button that fires the death ray in the quest This Galaxy Ain't Big Enough... The further to the left, the higher the shield power goes up, but this also lowers the power of the death ray, and vice versa.
  • The bridge is one of the few places (along with the engineering core, steamworks and holding cells) on Mothership Zeta that can be accessed after completing the quest This Galaxy Ain't Big Enough...

Appearances[]

The bridge appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Behind the scenes[]

An alien radio on the bridge is looping a Morse code message, as followed:
