Einstein
The Einstein NCC-1701⁄6 was a Class F shuttlecraft assigned to the Federation starship USS Enterprise.
This shuttle was piloted by Commodore Matthew Decker on a suicidal mission to the doomsday machine in 2267. Though the Commodore failed to destroy the robot, sensor scans by the Enterprise gave indications that the machine had been damaged.
With this knowledge at hand, Captain James Kirk flew the USS Constellation into the maw of the robot. This collision, when coupled with the detonation of the starship's impulse engines, wrecked the doomsday machine. (TOS: "The Doomsday Machine")
