According to the Chronology, Spok couldn't send down a shuttlecraft to get them because at that point in the series the show didn't yet have a shuttlecraft. It is only the 4th episode, after all. (Even if they had developed the concept, I doubt they had the money for the model, being on as tight a budget as they were.)
