Shuttle escape transporter

Data and Worf using the shuttle escape transporter

The shuttle escape transporter was a small short-range personnel transporter used aboard Federation shuttles. This transporter was manually controlled from a control console set in the ceiling of the passenger compartment of a shuttle.

In 2367, during a rescue mission to return Captain Jean-Luc Picard from a Borg cube back to the USS Enterprise-D, Data and Worf used this transporter on a Type 7 shuttlecraft for beaming themselves onto the cube. (TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II")
