Starbug

Description
Starbug is a ship to surface type shuttlecraft built by the JMC for use on its mining ships.

It is an all-purpose medium-sized transport vessel, suitable for transporting passengers or cargo over short or long distances. It has a much longer range than a Blue Midget and has a far larger hold, making this the ideal choice for transportation of goods, or for ferrying people who would like a bit more space than the cramped Blue Midget.

Green in colour and insect in shape, the Starbug was a popular and often used shuttlecraft type that proved to be very versatile for many different missions. They can be equipped with a star-drive for long-distance travel, propellers for underwater propulsion, or ground transportation with retractable caterpillar tracks. And, importantly, they are very cheap to build.

Inside there is space for a small MediBay, crew quarters, a kitchenette and a four-man bridge.
