Duyfken is the first Artemis Foundation Shuttle dedicated to exploration missions. She was named after the ship commanded by Willem Janszoon when he became the first European to sight Australia.[1]

Known Quirks

  • Good Morning Starshine II: The Class Quirk for this model ship. Similar to the class quirk displayed by the Three Graces, the OV-200 Orbiters need music played at the beginning of each workday in order to function at peak efficiency. Unlike the Graces, the same song can be reused (no more than three times in a row per any given month), but each Orbiter needs a distinct genre of music played for the best possible effect. Duyfken likes Bush band folk music.

Notes

  1. Rumors that the Lollipop Guild asked for a Shuttle to be named "something with an Aussie connection" as a favor to their political friends are currently unverifiable.
