Technical information
The interior of a pod
This type of pod was released from a docking port on the neck of Constitution-class starships, and could land on automatic. There was room for only one standard Human sized occupant, with small control panels placed at eye level on either side of the pod. There were also controls placed at waist level, including a manual steering column. The main hatch had at least four windows and was directly in front of the occupant. (Star Trek)
