| | Atmospheric shuttles carry passengers to and from the different vessels within the fleet, much like they might on the 12 Colonies. One can be spotted in the hanger deck aborad [[Cloud Nine]] ([[Resistance]]), as well as in [[Galleon Meadow]] ([[The Farm]]). |

| '''Atmospheric shuttles'''<ref>{{bsgwiki term}}</ref> are smaller vessels employed by the Colonials for ship to ship, ship to planet, and planet to ship transport. There are at least two different models, with one dating back to the [[First Cylon War]] {{TRS|Miniseries}}.
| |
| | |
| After the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], these craft were quite popular in the surviving [[The Fleet|fleet]] for ship to ship travel, and often created busy space lanes which were easy to get lost in {{TRS|Resistance}}.
