Star Trek XI bridge set to be stored after shooting on the movie is done, says executive producer and co-writer Roberto Orci.

As reported at Trekmovie.com, Roberto Orci answered more questions posed by Star Trek fans last week, which ranged from questions about the trailer to details about making Star Trek XI

Orci told fans that the bridge of the Enterprise won't be destroyed, but will instead be "boxed or crated, but not destroyed...just in case we need it." He also said that the original series episode Balance of Terror and the second, third, fourth and sixth films as well as novels by Judith Reeves-Stevens and Garfield Reeves-Stevens helped shape the writers' takes on the characters.

The most difficult characters for which to write, according to Orci, were James T. Kirk and the film's villain, who is named Nero. The film itself should come in at roughly two hours with the movie script running to 128 pages in length.
