(written from a Production point of view)
Throughout the history of Star Trek, the various television and movie productions have filmed at locations, predominantly in Southern California, to provide a broader scope and grandeur than can be achieved easily on a closed set. Even with the advent of CGI, location shoots have continued.
According to director David Livingston, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was budgetarily designed to have five or six location shoots per year. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion (p. ?)) Livingston also mentioned that location shootings were always considered as "play days" or "picnics" by the crew and cast. ("New Life and New Civilizations", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
The pilot episodes, "The Cage" and "Where No Man Has Gone Before", were shot at Desilu's Culver City facilities, on stages 15, 16, and 17.
For "The Cage", Stage 15 housed the Enterprise bridge, the Orion courtyard, the Talosian menagerie, and the "Hellfire" sets, while Stage 16 had the rest of the Enterprise sets (transporter room, briefing room, Pike's quarters, corridors), as well as the surface of Talos IV, the Mojave parkland, and the Orion cavern.

The Culver City soundstages, which dated back to Gone with the Wind (1939) and were seldomly maintained, were quickly deemed unusuable by the producers, who also wanted to keep a close watch on the show, so when Star Trek made it to series, the production was moved to Desilu's main studio lot at Gower Street, Hollywood. The series mainly utilized stages 9 and 10, which were later combined with the adjacent Paramount studios to form Paramount Stage 31 and Paramount Stage 32.
Stage 9 housed all Enterprise interiors, while the different alien worlds were built on Stage 10, which also had a cyclorama set, where planet exteriors could be filmed, using different colored lights to create alien atmospheres. (The Making of Star Trek, Inside Star Trek: The Real Story)
