  • Chaffee type shuttlepod
rdfs:comment
  • The Chaffee-type shuttlepod had a small cockpit with room for about four people. The primary power grid was powered by the impulse engines. The grid made no use of antimatter. For this reason it was capable of entering areas of subspace metreon radiation that would normally collapse the dilithium matrix of a warp core. The pod also had back-up power in case the impulse power failed. There were also primary and secondary navigational computers. The pod was protected with deflector shields.

(DS9: "The Sound of Her Voice") According to designer Doug Drexler "I pulled out the LightWave model of the Chaffee and measured it, and it is twenty-six feet long [7.9 meters]." [1](X) Author Larry Nemecek wrote down a length of 25 feet (7.6 meters) based on a May 5, 1998 verbal comment from Visual Effects Supervisor Gary Hutzel, who worked on The Sound of Her Voice. [2]
