- For the mirror universe counterpart of this vessel, please see the Galileo (mirror).
The Galileo (NCC-1701/7) was a Class F shuttlecraft assigned to the USS Enterprise in 2267, as a replacement for the original Galileo.
In 2267, Captain James T. Kirk, Spock, and Dr. McCoy used the Galileo to transport Nancy Hedford back to the Enterprise from Epsilon Canaris III. A few months later, the Galileo transported Ambassador Sarek and Amanda Grayson to the Enterprise for the Babel Conference. (TOS episodes: "Metamorphosis" and "Journey to Babel")
In 2268, the Galileo was nearly destroyed when Commander Spock used her to travel inside a giant space amoeba to destroy it. Spock's mission was successful, and the shuttle was threw clear and collected and repaired by the Enterprise. A few weeks later, Captain Kirk and a small party used the Galileo to proceed on a diplomatic mission to Tarsus IV. Enroute back to the Enterprise, the Galileo was brought off course to a medieval planet nearby. Unable to control the shuttle, it crashlanded on the surface of the planet, and while the occupants survived the Galileo was damaged beyond repair. (TOS episode: "The Immunity Syndrome" and comic: "Day of the Inquisitors")
