Purpose

The USS Pontiac, NCC-72684, is a Danube class runabout assigned to the USS Constitution-B

As can be seen below the Pontiac is equipped with an extra sensor pod above her hull. This facilitates specific science missions undertaken by the craft. Larger and faster than a shuttle but smaller and slower that a starship, the USS Pontiac is used only for specific missions that require transporting a large group from the USS Constitution to a far location.
