Emergency transporter

An emergency transporter was a built in transporter in Starfleet shuttlecraft. In the event of a disaster, the pilot could beam off the shuttle before it was destroyed.

In 2368, four members of Nova Squadron, Cadets Wesley Crusher, Sito Jaxa, Jean Hajar and Nicholas Locarno managed to activate their emergency transporters in their training shuttles before they were destroyed while attempting an illegal maneuver called the "Kolvoord Starburst". Cadet Joshua Albert unfortunately did not activate his in time and was killed.
