At the Star Trek Ships Expanded site and several others, there is a picture of one of Voyager's type-9 shuttlecraft called the Newton. Is this just someone's design or is this a real shuttle? Does anyone happen to know what episode it came from if it is accurate? Thanks in advance.

Please post a link to the site soes I can check it out!! If it's a design other than the "speedboat" Type 9 or the modified TNG shuttle, it's not real. If it is just the name you're wondering about, it could be real, but I don't recall hearing that name in any ep I've seen.

Plaese post a link though.

Here's a link. I've never posted one of these before, so the link might not work. However, the address is correct, so you may have to type it into you address line.

There is also a link to the Star Trek Ships Expanded site at the links page on Bernd's site.

Scroll down aways to the shuttle section - it may take a minute for the picture to come up.

I think the name was just fan made. It's not in the main listing for either Type 9 or Class 2.

Yeah, the design is canon, though. It's been in quite a few episodes. The name Newton isn't. It's not even in the spot where they names normally.

I guess the image itself as well as the name are fan-made. The name is not printed where it's supposed to be on a shuttle.

I'm not sure, but I think Rutger Warrink might have made that side view.
