Specifications - Pisa | NCC-80010-A/02

Summary

Pisa is the sole shuttlepod carried aboard Galileo. Its namesake corresponds to Galileo Galilei's birthplace in the city of Pisa, Italy, Earth, in the year 1564. The Type 15A shuttlepod is an old and proven support craft design specifically used for sub-warp ferry missions. Its light weight and simplistic design make the craft versatile in its mission capabilities. Able to transport crew between starships and planetary bodies, it occupies a useful niche where a larger shuttlecraft or transporter systems might not be needed or available.
