Paramount Stage 18 is located on the Paramount Pictures lot in Hollywood, California.
Stage 18 was used for temporary swing sets in all seven seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, as well as the motion picture Star Trek: Insurrection.
In recent years, it was the permanent home of many sets used in Star Trek: Enterprise.
1992-1999
For the new production, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, more space at Paramount Studios was allotted to the Star Trek franchise.
Stage 18 was first used in the pilot episode of DS9 for the various temporary sets needed for that production, including the main bridge of the USS Saratoga and Cardassian ship, and the Bajoran monastery.
The stage would also house two permanent standing sets, the interior of the runabout and the holosuite set.
In later years, DS9's version of "Planet Hell" - an interior planet cave set - was constructed on Stage 18, as well sets representing the Defiant bridge and engine room, though the latter would be torn down to make room for a Klingon starship interior and generic Cardassian setting.
- Paramount Stages 4 and 17 housed the primary sets used in DS9.
1998
In 1998, Stage 18's cave set was significantly expanded for use in the feature film Star Trek: Insurrection.
The caves represented those on the Ba'ku planet and included multiple levels.
The modifications were left mostly intact for the remainder of the set's use in DS9 and were prominently featured in the series finale, "What You Leave Behind", as the Bajoran fire caves.
- Paramount Stages 5 and 15 would contain the primary interior sets for Insurrection.
2001-2005
In 2001, Stage 18 became the primary home of the most recent series, Star Trek: Enterprise.
Three large sets were built within the stage and would be central most locations aboard the NX-01: the bridge, engineering and launch bay interiors.
The sets were constructed side-by-side, with engineering in the center - that set also included a small network of corridors, the transporting device and decon chamber.
- The corridors that lined engineering were referred to in blueprints as the "Engineering Corridor".
A small area between engineering and the launch bay was reserved for temporary swing sets.
- Paramount Stage 8 housed the remaining NX-01 interiors used on ENT.
