The Picasso (SB11-1201⁄1) was a Federation class F shuttlecraft that was in service with Starfleet in the mid-23rd century, attached to Starbase 11 in the 2260s.
History
In 2267, the Picasso flew close to the USS Enterprise while a new ion pod was installed on the ship. (TOS: "Court Martial")
Later that year, after Commander Spock commandeered the USS Enterprise, Captain James T. Kirk, along with a Talosian illusion of Commodore José I. Mendez, took the Picasso to pursue him. After the shuttle ran out of fuel, Spock towed the Picasso into the shuttlebay. (TOS: "The Menagerie, Part I")

Background information
The name Picasso and the new registry number were derived from the 2006 remastered version of this episode. In the episode as originally aired, the shuttle was named simply Shuttlecraft 1, and was a re-use of the Enterprise shuttlecraft Galileo that appeared several times in recycled footage to represent other shuttles throughout TOS.
The Picasso was named for artist Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) and David Rossi's cat. (Star Trek Encyclopedia (4th ed., vol. 2, p. 145)) Ironically, the real Picasso was not particularly impressed with space exploration. When asked about the Apollo 11 moon landing, the day after it occurred, Picasso was quoted as saying "It means nothing to me. I have no opinion about it, and I don't care." [1]
