Harry Mudd stealing shuttlecraft 12
Template:Disambiguate
NCC-1701⁄12 was the registry number of a Federation shuttlecraft aboard the USS Enterprise in 2269.
History
When the Enterprise was studying a Class M planet orbitting a binary sun, Harry Mudd hijacked Shuttlecraft 12 with Nurse Christine Chapel as a hostage. He planned to ditch her on the landing site and get as far away as possible on the planet surface. Unfortunately for him, and for the shuttle, a native rock creature crushed the vehicle with its foot. (TAS: "Mudd's Passion")

Background information
The NCC-1701⁄4 and another shuttle in the Enterprise's shuttlebay were of the same design as NCC-1701⁄12.
There was no name for this shuttle printed on the hull, and was only referred to as "shuttlecraft" in the episode dialogue.
The shuttle was labeled as N.C.C.⁄1701⁄12 or N.C.C.-1701⁄12 in some scenes.
The Copernicus seen in "The Slaver Weapon" was presumably the replacement shuttle for this shuttle, since both craft shared the same registry number.
