Star Trek 2 co-writer Damon Lindelof spoke with Collider recently and told the website an interesting bit of information from the set of the next Star Trek film. The actual set for the Enterprise was all connected as one big piece—just like as if it were the actual insides of the spaceship.

"It was incredible, and I think that Trek 2—there’s certainly an instinct to just go bigger in the second movie and one of the things that we did was we connected all the sets, so you can just basically follow the actors off the bridge, into a turbo lift, down, walking through a plaza, into the med bay as opposed to [having to] cut every time you do that, because when we were shooting on the Paramount stages we just didn’t have the money to connect all the sets," Lindelof said. "So the first day that I actually walked on the Enterprise, you walked through the Enterprise and it’s a very insular experience of like, 'Wow I'm actually on a starcraft.'"

Even though Lindelof didn't say this, you can bet there will be long camera shots following the actors and actresses through the Enterprise, which is most likely why they build the it as one connected piece.
