Argo (shuttle)

The Argo was a shuttlecraft assigned to the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-E)-E in 2379.

The Argo was designed with recessed warp nacelles and fold-down wings in order to assist in atmospheric maneuverability. The shuttle was equipped with an all-terrain buggy that could transport up to three passengers over rugged terrain. The buggy was secured aboard the shuttle's cargo hold via wheel clamps. The shuttlecraft could also be remote controlled from a device on the buggy. An away team consisting of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Lieutenant Commander Data, and Lieutenant Commander Worf used the shuttle for transport to and around Kolarus III. ()

Two prototype Argo-type shuttles were assigned to the USS Lambda Paz in early-2375. Both shuttles were put to use to transport away teams to the surface of the planet designated Epsilon Trianguli since atmospheric conditions would overpower the engines of other support vessels. At this time, the Argo-type had not yet been equipped an all-terrain buggy.
