Star Trek: 11-ish Times Voyager Lost A Shuttle

Quick memo: Next time, it would be better to listen to Seven of Nine when she says, "A sensor analysis would have provided the necessary information." Not for the first time, curiosity nearly killed the Chakotay, with Seven dragged along to 'admire the view.'

The episode Natural Law that nears the end of Star Trek: Voyager's final season begins with the destruction of a shuttlecraft, and that in unequivocal fashion. This would be the last time Voyager lost a shuttle (that we know) before making it back to the Alpha Quadrant, and the craft is given a CGI farewell strong enough to befit the occasion.

At first playing hopscotch across an energy barrier before the feedback gets too much, the Class 2 blows up, sending its deflector array careening past the virtual camera down to the ground. Don't worry, though! Seven and Chakotay beam away in time, and later Voyager recovers all the shuttle debris. It's Tom Paris, however, who destroys what was left of its deflector. Now he'll never be able to operate a vessel within Ledosian space!
