Starship mission status reports were a computer display available to Starfleet officers used to brief them on the activities of other Federation starships and installations.

A readout of this nature for various sectors was often displayed on a screen in the observation lounge or bridge of the starship USS Enterprise-D during the 2360s.

The starship mission status readout was displayed in the observation lounge in an alternate timeframe when Jean-Luc Picard found himself time traveling to his first mission on the Enterprise-D. (TNG: "All Good Things...")

The status readout was displayed on a computer screen on the bridge in 2367 when Data took over the ship. (TNG: "Brothers")

Background

The mission status readout was devised by Michael Okuda's art department, and featured the registry numbers, classes and assignments of many Federation starships mentioned during TNG's run. "Chain of Command, Part I" was one of its many appearances. This display was never clear on screen, but has been reproduced in other media, and the info within has been adhered to by many later works including the Star Trek Encyclopedia.

One of these, or at least a very similar okudagram, was sold in It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay for US$4,400. [1] It is essentially the same as the "bridge version" shown above, but corrects the USS Trieste from Yosemite-class to the Merced-class, and does not include the Victory and Zhukov.
