The Center Console is an incredibly useful summary of the Horizons current status. It is often best placed where the captain as well as the majority of the crew can see it. It has the current status of your vessel's components, as well as the system you are currently in (a la Star System map), Deck Status, Core System Status, Vessel Orientation, and a visual representation of the shields and damage sustained by the Horizons.
