Changes: El-Baz

Revision as of 04:25, 6 April 2011

The El-Baz was a shuttlepod carried by the starship USS Enterprise-D. It was shuttlepod 05 and was equipped with impulse drive only.

In 2365, a duplicate of the El-Baz was found adrift in deep space by the Enterprise-D, with a duplicate Captain Jean-Luc Picard at the controls. Examination of the shuttle determined it came from several hours into the future and that it escaped the destruction of the Enterprise at the hands of a space-borne entity. The duplicates disappeared after the "present" Picard discovered a way to avert the ship's destruction. (TNG: "Time Squared")

Late in 2366, the El-Baz was parked in the Enterprise's shuttlebay and under maintenance supervised by chief engineer Geordi La Forge. John Doe tried to escape the Enterprise by initiating the launch of the shuttlepod, but gave up his attempt after inadvertently killing then reviving Lieutenant Worf. (TNG: "Transfigurations")

In 2369, the El-Baz was stolen by Lieutenant Commander Data and a Borg drone named Crosis. Crosis reconfigured the shuttle to open a transwarp conduit, and the shuttle was taken to a planet containing a compound of Lore's Borg. The abandoned El-Baz was discovered by an Enterprise away team, and used as a command post for search teams attempting to locate Data. (TNG: "Descent", "Descent, Part II")

The El-Baz was named after planetary geologist Farouk El-Baz. [1] It was the first type 15 shuttlepod seen on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
