Heyerdahl (shuttlecraft)

The Heyerdahl was a type ten Federation shuttlecraft assigned to the USS Republic (24th century). While the Republic was assigned to assist in the rebuilding efforts on Tezwa in late 2379, the Heyerdahl was shot down over Keelee-Kee by a plasma warhead; Lieutenant Blancaflor served as the search and rescue team leader and recovered the flight recorder, and USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-E) Security Chief Christine Vale ordered security personnel Gracin and Cruzen to confiscate recording equipment from a Federation News Service reporter on the scene to prevent any tactical leaks.
