'''UIY 1138''' is ''{{TOS|Galactica}}''{{'|s}} [[Colonial shuttle]] dispatched to [[Arcta]] in order to destroy the [[Ravashol pulsar]].
[[File:Colonialshuttle.jpg|thumb|Good 'ol GAL 356. Built Colonial tough.]]


It is shot down by a patrol of {{TOS|Cylon}} {{TOS|Raider}}s and crashes near [[Deathpoint Plateau]] {{OS|The Gun on Ice Planet Zero}}.
'''GAL 356''' is a dependable ''{{TOS|Galactica}}'' [[Colonial Shuttle|shuttle]] in the [[The Fleet (TOS)|Fleet]] in both the [[Original Series]] and ''[[Galactica 1980]]''.
 
It can be seen in almost every episode. In fact it's such a popular ship that even Commander [[Cain (TOS)|Cain]] had one just like it, which he travels on when ''{{TOS|Pegasus}}'' encounters ''Galactica'' {{OS|The Living Legend, Part I}}!
 
Oh, and did you know that it can even traverse universes, as [[atmospheric shuttle|it shows up]] in the [[Re-imagined Series]] and in ''[[buckwiki:Buck Rogers in the 25th Century|Buck Rogers in the 25th Century]]''!


== Notes ==
== Notes ==


* The shuttle registry shifts between ''UIY 1138'' and ''[[GAL 356]]'' due to reuse of special effects from "[[Saga of a Star World]]."
* The constant occurrence of this shuttle is a regrettable result of reuse of special effects footage throughout the Original Series and its negatively-viewed direct successor. This happened due to the high cost of special effects in terms of time and money, particularly at the time both series were produced.
* UIY 1138 is a nod to the film {{W|THX 1138}}, as it features a letter shift. It is an Easter egg placed by [[Apogee]], a special-effects company created by [[John Dykstra]] with a team of {{W|Industrial Light and Magic}} employees that produced effects for both "Saga of a Star World" and "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero."
