Additional Information


Atmospheric shuttles are FTL-capable vessels whose primary role is ferrying passengers to and from the different vessels within the Fleet or to a planet's surface.

Atmospheric shuttles appear on both military and civilian vessels. A shuttle is seen in Galactica's landing bay (Miniseries) and on the hangar deck of Cloud Nine (Resistance).

An atmospheric shuttle ferries a group around Laura Roslin seeking the whereabouts of Earth to the Galleon Meadow on Kobol (Home, Part I), and docks to Galactica in "Act of Contrition". A shuttle is also seen at rest on the surface of New Caprica during its colonization, and during food retrieval efforts on the algae planet (The Eye of Jupiter).
