NCC-K7

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

The NCC-K7 was the registry of a Class F shuttlecraft assigned to Deep Space Station K-7 in 2268. (DS9: "Trials and Tribble-ations")

The NCC-K7 was never referenced in dialogue, nor was it seen in TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles". Rather, a miniature of this vessel was created for "Trials and Tribble-ations." Footage of this shuttle can be seen in the DS9 Season 5 DVD's special features that look at the making of the episode.

It is not clear if this was the registry of the space station or of the shuttlecraft itself. There is no canon record of any other station or shuttle having an NCC registry number assigned to them. The shuttlecraft Picasso in the 2006 remastering of TOS: "The Menagerie, Part I" was labeled "SB11-12011". Likewise, the Da Vinci, which appeared in the 2008 remastering of TOS: "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" was labeled "SB4-03142". However, the starbases they were assigned to were not established as space stations.
