The USG *Kellion* was a CEC shuttle dispatched to the USG *Ishimura*.

## Events of Dead Space Remastered

The USG *Kellion* was dispatched to the USG *Ishimura* as part of an emergency maintenance mission to determine and repair the cause of the communications blackout. Following the vessel's successful shockpoint into the system, the *Kellion* approached the *Ishimura*; however, the larger vessel failed to respond to the repeated hails. Attempting to enter the *Ishimura* via an automatic docking procedure, a drifting piece of planetary debris smashed into the starboard bow and slid across to port, this resulted in a malfunction of docking and autopilot, mandating an emergency landing inside the *Ishimura's* Flight Deck hangar.

The *Kellion* seems to have a similar design to the *Ishimura's* shuttles, with the only difference being the addition of a quad-booster array attached to the main body, likely the ShockPoint Drive system. It is also equipped with armor plating that can slide down over the cockpit windows, protecting the occupants in case of an emergency situation.

After the events and discoveries made aboard the *Ishimura*, Abdullah is sent back to the shuttle by Mio Akiyama to prep it for launch, only to discover that it had been damaged by Enhanced Zombies
And The Flood And Necromorphs. When he goes aboard and loads a damage report, a Leaper can be seen crawling over the damaged cockpit window. They may have attacked the shuttle due to Abdullah's presence, as a fire breaks out and spreads through the shuttle, causing terminal damage to the ship. Isaac barely escapes back onto the flight deck before the *Kellion* falls to the floor of the hangar bay, completely destroyed.

## Trivia

* At the end of *Dead Space Eternal*, you can see the ship approaching the *Ishimura*.
* At the end of *Dead Space Extraction Remastered* the survivors in Maintenance Shuttle 23 try to contact the *Kellion*, but are unable to. It is speculated that the radio crackle at the start of the game might have been Sodachi Oikura trying to contact the *Kellion* and warn them of the infection, but was unable to due to the debris or a faulty communication device. The two ships were not able to see each other due to said debris.
* When you arrive in the hangar after you've moved the Red Marker in Chapter 11, turn off gravity and move to Runway 1. If you jump around enough and find the right spots, you can identify the bow of the Kellion charred black in the far corner.
* In *Dead Space 2 Remastered*, upon arriving back to the *Ishimura*, one may not be able to find the Kellion where it was destroyed. It was possibly moved from the ship and its presence concealed from the public.
* The Shuttle was built/designed by "Zebra" Industries.

## Notes

1. ↑ *Dead Space Remastered* takes place three years before the events of *Dead Space 2 Remastered*.
2. ↑ Briefly, a completely unintelligible response was received, but both the origin of that communication and its contents remain unknown.
3. ↑ It is currently unconfirmed if the destabilization of the *Kellion's* approach was caused by a auto-dock malfunction or a collision with a piece of planetary debris.
