Data

Permanently activated February 2, 2338 on Omicron Theata

Lieutenant Commander Data is the second and chief operations officer aboard the USS Enterprise-D. Created by Dr. Noonien Soong, Data is a sophisticated humanoid android a sentient being with cival rights, perhaps his own singular species. He strives to become more human even though his loyalty and moral integrity are unimpeachable. Data's powerful positronic brain gives him exceptional computational abilities, intense curiosity and perfect information recall, and his android body is strong and able to withstand conditions that would be fatal to other species. While Data laments his lack of feelings, the implantation of an emotion chip would bring its own challenges. From Trek Trivia Calendar February 2, 2012

NightShade

The night is by far the darkest in the shade. This war within this book was just as dark. It lasted for 300 years. It was between two of the three factions on the planet of Oriana. The two factions at war were the Torlick's and the Venturi's. The other faction was the Green's.

The Green's like their name suggest, were environmentally savy. They were in fact saving the world, coming up with ideas to overcome the pollutive aspects of the war, that was polluting everything.

There were few doctors left, for most of them joined the military. The doctor's that were left were overflowed with wounded as well as mothers who weren't giving birth or worse, giving birth to children missing limbs or features which disabled them to living a short life.

The worse part of the story, if you think it could get any worse is Picard was framed for the murder of one of the dignitaries. His fate was to be decided by the efforts of Worf and Troi. Worf being honored ambassadorship in Picards absence had an internal battle to believe that he could be a ambassador. On the advise of Troi, he makes an outstanding one.

The Backwards Planet

A planet in reverse
Stardate 209.11235
We are going down to a planet the first of it's kind, with a retrograding rotation.

An away mission consisting of the Captain, Data, and Worf are down checking this phenomena out.

The main questions are how and why this planets retrograde orbit occurred. Planets usually orbit the same way as the sun.

This was an important discovery. Picard found out an infatimesimal degree of the planet was tilted by 3/4 of an inch. This meant that this planet was a unique specimen of a cosmic body in space.

They found natives on this planet that the Enterprise's sensors couldn't pick up, because they were much like the soundings land mass. They were peaceful and welcoming to them, with many questions on where Picard and his party came from.

The natives were warp capable, however they chose not to employ their technology.

Since the planet rotated backward the inhabitants didn't age past 30 years.
