Background: Star Trek Starship Handbooks
The Class C8 inspection pod was a small Federation shuttlepod used during the 23rd century to transfer personnel between orbital facilities and spaceships.
The pod was designed to complement the orbital shuttle also produced in the 2270s. Where the orbital shuttle was designed to operate both in space and a planetary atmosphere, the C8 was confined purely to space. The bulky shape was designed to maximize internal volume, with no attempt to give it any aerodynamic qualities. Propulsion was provided by microthrusters.
The design featured a standard docking and entry hatch at the rear, simple flight controls at the forward end, and an artificial gravity generator under the floor. The front of the vessel was dominated by a large viewport.
