Edit[]

I'm not an expert on shuttlepods, so someone should probably look into the edit that was most recently made to this page. --From Andoria with Love 10:46, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

I did the recent edit. I added the shuttlepod from "Devil's Due". This ship is identified by dialogue. --Airtram3 11:44, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Not you, Airtram, there was an anonymous user who edited the page after you did. That's the edit I was referring to. --From Andoria with Love 13:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

New names from Shuttlebay Operations LCARS display[]

An LCARS display which was seen in the small control room of the Enterprise-D shuttlebay beginning with TNG: "Evolution" is up for auction at Profiles in History now. A pdf-version of the catalog (Hollywood Auction 44) can be downloaded here. The item in question is lot 1483. I have access to a clearer photo of the display, so making out the actual names of the shuttlepods is much easier. Here's what can be seen:

Pod 02 Chris Pike Refit Hangar 4

Pod 05 El Baz Overhaul Hangar 4

Pod 07 Onizuka Available Bay 2

Pod 08 Heinlein Testing Hangar 2

Pod 09 Lindberg Available Main Bay

Pod 10 PT Farnsworth Overhaul Hangar 5

Pod 12 Sam Freedle Available Bay 3

Pod 14 Cochrane Available Main Bay

Pod 15 Armstrong Overhaul Hangar 5

Pod 18 Curie Standby Main Bay

Pod 19 Feynman Testing Main Bay

Hoping someone has time to create all those new articles... ;-) --Jörg 08:39, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

Having that image for the articles, or at least linkable on site, might be a good idea. - Archduk 3 08:59, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

I got permission to share the image, so here it is. First of all the whole image and then a close-up of the Shuttlepod list: http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l142/gaghyogi49/Spring%202011/ShuttlebayOperationsLCARSdisplay.jpg

Hope that helps! --Jörg 14:08, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

However, if launched from a starship at warp, they could travel at warp for an undetermined period of time. {{incite}}

Uncited --Alan (talk) 14:40, July 28, 2020 (UTC)

I am wondering if maybe that person somehow confused the type 15 shuttlepod with something else having that ability. I do recall reading something about that in the STTNGTM. GEP3465 (talk) 19:16, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

The Type 16 is slower than the first two?[]

According to the Technical Manual, the production base of shuttlepods was the Starbase 134 integration facility on Rigel VI, and there were in fact three different types of shuttlepods of this design:

The Type 15 had a delta-vee of 12,800 meters per second and a mass of 0.86 tons.
The Type 15A had a delta-vee of 13,200 meters per second and a mass of 0.97 ton.
The Type 16 had a delta-vee of 12,250 meters per second and a mass of 1.25 tons.
