Changes: Chaffee

Revision as of 15:36, 4 July 2015

The Chaffee was a Federation Chaffee-type shuttlepod that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to the USS Defiant. It was shuttle 01.

In late 2374, Benjamin Sisko, Miles O'Brien and Julian Bashir used the Chaffee to enter the atmosphere of a Class L planet to rescue Lisa Cusak. The use of the pod was preferred because its power systems did not utilize antimatter, and made it possible for the pod to survive travel through the exotic energy field surrounding the planet.

-*In the non-[[canon]] [[Pocket DS9|''Deep Space Nine'']] series of [[novels]], shuttle ''Chaffee'' was mentioned as being assigned to the [[USS Defiant (NCC-75633)|replacement ''Defiant'']]. The ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Mission Gamma|Mission Gamma]]'' storyline has a description, in "[[Cathedral]]", of the craft being labeled "NX-74205". Since that is the registry of the previous ''Defiant'', it may suggest that the shuttle was the one from the previous ship.
