Highly accurate sensors and computer systems makes it the perfect tool to send into scarcely known territory and many discoveries have been made by Nova Classes finding things larger Explorer-type ships such as the [[ma:Galaxy_class|Galaxy]] Class left behind. | Highly accurate sensors and computer systems makes it the perfect tool to send into scarcely known territory and many discoveries have been made by Nova Classes finding things larger Explorer-type ships such as the [[ma:Galaxy_class|Galaxy]] Class left behind. | ||
Amenities are few and far between on a Nova, but its work is important and crews that work on these small ships know their worth and protect their reputations fiercely. Much like the favored Oberth, the Nova is sure to hold a place in Starfleet lore for a long time to come. | Amenities are few and far between on a Nova, but its work is important and crews that work on these small ships know their worth and protect their reputations fiercely.

* One [http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/Class_2_shuttle Class 2 shuttle], commonly used for away missions. | |||
* One [http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/Type_8_shuttlecraft Type 8 shuttle], an unarmed shuttle for short scientific missions. | |||
* The [[Borealis]], a [http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/Waverider waverider] atmospheric shuttle docked to the ventral side of the primary hull, just forward of the ship's primary navigational deflector. This craft's aerodynamic shape is designed solely for operating within a planet's atmosphere, and lacks both impulse and warp engines. Such a vessel is necessary to land on the surface of a planet whose atmospheric conditions make it far too hazardous to use transporters or traditional shuttlecraft. | |||
