BIOGRAPHICAL DETAILS: Communications officer aboard the original Starship Enterprise under the command of Captain James Kirk. She was born in 2239; her name is derived from the Swahili word for "freedom." A highly skilled technician, Uhura was also a talented musician, and enjoyed serenading her fellow crew members with song. Her memory was wiped clean in 2267 by the errant space probe Nomad, requiring her to be re-educated. Following the re-assignment of the original Enterprise to Starfleet Academy in 2284, Uhura served at Starfleet Command on Earth. Uhura was scheduled to give a seminar at the academy in 2293, although she volunteered to return to her old post on the Enterprise-A at Kirk's request prior to the historic Khitomer conference.
