[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] I don't see how the pod would be two decks tall or anything near that. It seems to be just like a standard shuttle - barely providing standing room. And the shuttlebays of a Miranda are truly cavernous, at least three decks high. There could easily be half a dozen pods like this hanging from the ceiling of each bay, while still allowing for normal shuttle operations in both bays. As for the entry door vs. window dilemma... I see none. The model has port and starboard entry doors, but it's impossible to tell if there is a stern window. Let's assume there is one. The one we saw the Saratoga through was not shaped like one of the side windows, after all - it was much bigger. Obviously, the Runabout set was used for the pod with minor modifications, so there were the side entry doors and the small oval side windows. There were also two blueshirted pilots facing forward (but the Runabout windows were covered - the pilots apparently had only viewscreens). Sisko was facing starboard. A view from bow to stern showed Sisko facing left, staring at nothing, while directly in front of the camera (that is, directly astern) was the big window that showed an aft view and the explosion of the Saratoga. I guess the pods were lowered from the shuttlebay ceiling to the bay floor, after which people boarded from whichever door was most convenient. Then the pod departed much like a shuttle.
