THE TREKKER'S GALACTOPEDIA
by CAPTAIN MIKE

J SECTION 1: Ja through Ji.

Jabara.: Bajoran healthcare professional. Jabara was a nurse on duty at the infirmary on Deep Space 9 when the station was struck by the aphasia virus on stardate 46423. She assisted Dr. Bashir during the heroic but ultimately tragic treatment of Vedek Bareil in 2371. ("Babel" [DS9]; "Life Support" [DS9]). Played by Ann H. Gillespie.
Jabin.: Kazon leader. Jabin, who held the title of maje, led a Kazon-Ogla settlement on the Ocampa planet. Jabin's people searched for water and cormaline on the surface of the Ocampa planet. Maje Jabin also commanded a small Kazon spacecraft. ("Caretaker" [VOY]). Played by Gavin O'Herlihy.
ja'chuq.: Klingon term, an obsolete component of the Klingon Rite of Succession, in which High Council chancellor candidates chronicle, at incredible length, their combat credentials, the battles they had won and prizes they had taken, in order to prove their worthiness to lead the council. In 2367, the ja'chuq was used to briefly stall the final decision of who was to succeed as chancellor. ("Reunion" [TNG]).
Jack.: Individual who, as a child, had been genetically altered through illegal and unsuccessful accelerated critical neural pathway formation. Although the procedure had been intended to enhance Jack's abilities, it resulted in giving Jack an extremely aggressive personality, so much so that he could not easily fit into normal society, and he spent much of his life institutionalized. Jack was a nervous individual, but possessed great intelligence and physical coordination. Under the care of Starfleet psychiatrist Dr. Karen Loews, Jack and three other genetically enhanced individuals traveled to starbase Deep Space 9 in 2374 to meet Julian Bashir, who had also undergone genetic enhancement as a child. On Deep Space 9, Jack and his group made analytical projections about the Dominion war that Starfleet considered important. Despite, or because of, his difficulty in functioning in "normal" society, Jack was a brilliantly unconventional scientist and inventor. He devised a remarkable means of increasing the accuracy of a neocortical probe beyond the theoretical limits imposed by quantum physics, and even studied hypothetical means of averting the ultimate collapse of the universe. Jack returned to Deep Space 9 in 2375 to seek an unorthodox surgical procedure for Sarina Douglas. ("Statistical Probabilities" [DS9]; "Chrysalis" [DS9]). Played by Tim Ransom.
Jack the Ripper.: Nickname given to mass murderer of women in 19th century London, England, on planet Earth. Centuries later, Jack the Ripper was found to be an evil energy life-form that thrived on the emotion of terror. ("Wolf in the Fold" [TOS]).
jacked.: 21st century slang term, meaning 'mugged' or 'robbed.' When Chris Brynner discovered Jadzia Dax unconscious in a San Francisco subway entrance in 2024, he assumed she had been jacked. Jadzia played along, in order to conceal the fact that she had accidentally travelled back in time. ("Past Tense" [DS9]).
Jackson.: Crewman on the starship Enterprise. Jackson was killed on stardate 3018 while on a landing party to planet Pyris VII. The deceased Jackson, who materialized on the ship in a state of rigor mortis, spoke in a voice projected by Korob, warning the Enterprise to leave Pyris VII. ("Catspaw" [TOS]). Played by Jimmy Jones. Jimmy Jones was a stunt performer who appeared in several other Star Trek episodes.
Jackson.: Former Maquis crewperson on the starship Voyager. ("State of Flux" [VGR]).
Jacobi.: Engineering crewperson aboard the starship Hood in the 2260s. ("Double, Double" [Pocket TOS #44]).
Jacobs.: Lieutenant aboard the starship Enterprise in the 2270s. ("Enemy Unseen" [Pocket TOS]).
Ja'Dar.: Scientist from planet Bilana III. Dr. Ja'Dar was the designer of a revolutionary soliton wave propulsion system, tested for the first time in 2368. ("New Ground" [TNG]). Played by Richard McGonagle.
Jadzia.: SEE: Dax, Jadzia. ("Emissary" [DS9 #1&2]).
Jaeger.: ("Dreams of the Raven" [Pocket TOS #34]).
Jaeger, Karl.: Enterprise geologist. Jaeger was part of the landing party to planet Gothos in 2267. ("The Squire of Gothos" [TOS]). Played by Richard Carlyle.
JAG.: SEE: Judge Advocate General.
Jaheel.: Commander of a transport vessel docked for repairs at Deep Space 9 on stardate 46423, when the station was struck by a deadly aphasia virus. Jaheel attempted to violate a quarantine by pulling away from the station with the mooring clamps still attached to his vessel. The attempt failed and he was returned. Jaheel was carrying a shipment of Tamen Sahsheer to planet Largo V. ("Babel" [DS9]). Played by Jack Kehler.
Jahn.: One of the last survivors of the disastrous Life Prolongation Project on Miri's planet. Jahn was a friend to Miri. ("Miri" [TOS]). Played by Michael J. Pollard.
Jaiya, Marrero.: Former Maquis rebel, now a pirate. ("Dujonian's Hoard" [Pocket Captain's Table #2]).
Jakara, Rivas.: Identity created for Commander William Riker when he participated in a covert surveillance mission on planet Malcor III in 2367. Riker, as Jakara, was injured in a riot in the capital city and taken to the Sikla Medical Facility for treatment. While Jakara was hospitalized, his physician discovered he was an alien who had been surgically altered to pass as a Malcorian. ("First Contact" [TNG]).
jakmanite.: ("Hollow Pursuits" [TNG]).
jal.: ("Initiations" [VGR]).
Jalad.: ("Darmok" [TNG]).
Jalanda.: ("Return to Grace" [DS9]).
Jalanda Forum.: ("Sanctuary" [DS9]).
Jalara jungle.: Expanse of lush wilderness on the planet Betazed. ("Imzadi" [Pocket TNG HC #2]).
Jameson, Anne.: Wife to Admiral Mark Jameson. Anne and Mark were married from 2314 until the admiral's death in 2364. ("Too Short a Season" [TNG #12]). Played by Marsha Hunt.
Jameson, Mark.: (2279 - 2364). Celebrated Starfleet officer whose career included command of the starship Gettysburg. Jameson was also credited with the freeing of Federation hostages on planet Mordan IV just prior to the outbreak of a civil war on that planet that lasted 40 years. Just prior to his death at age 85, Jameson accepted a second mission to the now-peaceful Mordan IV to secure the release of more Federation hostages. During the negotiations, it was learned that Jameson's previous mission had included an illegal weapons-for-hostages deal in direct violation of the Prime Directive. The act triggered, or at least exacerbated, the civil war. The second group of hostages had been seized by Mordan leader Karnas for the specific purpose of luring Jameson to the planet. Jameson died on Mordan IV of side effects of a rejuvenation treatment obtained on planet Cerebus II. He had previously been diagnosed with terminal Iverson's disease. Jameson was survived by his wife, Anne Jameson. ("Too Short a Season" [TNG #12]). Played by Clayton Rohner.
Janda.: Starfleet captain, she served at Starfleet Academy in 2259. ("The Kobayashi Maru" [Pocket TOS]).
Janeway.: Starfleet ensign, an Enterprise-D crew member who had a counseling session with Deanna Troi shortly after stardate 46071.6. A member of the science department, Janeway had sought counseling because she had been having trouble with her superior officer, Lieutenant Pinder. Unfortunately, Troi was at the time serving as an involuntary "receptacle" for Ambassador Ves Alkar's negative emotions, so she was an unsympathetic listener. ("Man of the People" [TNG #129]). Played by Lucy Boryer.
Janeway, Edward.: Senior Starfleet officer and father of Kathryn Janeway. Admiral Janeway died in 2358 while on Tau Ceti Prime. He was a victim of an accidental drowning under the planet's polar ice cap, after the crash of the experimental starship Terra Nova. In 2373, following a near fatal shuttle crash injury, Kathryn Janeway's cerebral cortex was inhabited by a consciousness parasite. The entity fed a false reality to Janeway, taking the form of her long dead father. ("Coda" [VGR #58]; "Quarantine" [Pocket SA]). Played by Len Cariou.
Janeway, Kathryn.: Starfleet admiral, the former commanding officer of the Federation starship Voyager. Janeway led her crew home after being trapped in the Delta Quadrant for seven years. Janeway was born on May 20 in the state of Indiana on planet Terra. Janeway's father was Starfleet admiral Edward Janeway. In 2371, the starship Voyager, with Janeway and her crew, was abducted and swept into the distant Delta Quadrant of the galaxy, 70,000 light years from home, where they were essentially stranded. After the destruction of a Maquis ship that had also been abducted to the Delta Quadrant, Janeway accepted the Maquis crew aboard her ship, and invited its commander, Chakotay, to become her second-in-command. Janeway's courage and leadership were instrumental in the survival of her crew as they made a long and difficult journey back to the Alpha Quadrant. Janeway loved to ski. When she was young, Kathryn's parents took her and her siblings on camping trips, but she never did like camping, as she was very much a child of the 24th century. As a child, Janeway enjoyed The Adventures of Flotter children's holographic tales. Kathryn had a sister, who was the artist of the family. Kathryn loved music, but never learned to play a musical instrument, a fact that she regretted in her adult life. As a child, one of Janeway's heroes was noted 20th century Earth aviator Amelia Earhart. In later years, Janeway would recall that Earhart was one of the inspirations that led her to join Starfleet. Janeway enjoyed tennis when she was in high school, although she did not play the game again until 19 years later when she commanded the starship Voyager. Janeway was close with her father, and grieved deeply after his tragic accidental drowning in 2358. Janeway's first cadet cruise was aboard the starship Tsiolkovsky in 2353. Early in her career, Janeway served as science officer aboard the U.S.S. Al-Batani. Prior to Voyager's disappearance, Janeway had been romantically involved with Mark Hobbes Johnson, who took care of Molly, her pet Irish Setter. During her off-duty hours aboard Voyager, Janeway enjoyed participating in a gothic romance holonovel set in old England on Earth. Captain Janeway was an accomplished pool player. She considered coffee to be an essential part of her life-style and had a particular weakness for coffee ice cream. She enjoyed knitting, and in 2372, made a monogrammed blanket for Ensign Samantha Wildman's newborn daughter. The luxury of a hot bath was probably Janeway's favorite form of relaxation. On stardate 48546, Janeway sought Chakotay's help in experiencing a vision quest in search of her personal animal guide. Janeway became afflicted with a potentially fatal viral disease in 2372 after accidental contact with an insectoid life-form on a planet in the Delta Quadrant. Extensive research determined that the condition could remain benign as long as she remained on the planet, but that she could not survive if she left. Voyager officer Chakotay was also stricken with the disease. Determined that her people should not sacrifice their chance to return home, Janeway ordered her ship to continue their voyage, leaving Janeway and Chakotay behind. On the planet, Janeway found life was made more pleasant by Chakotay's support and his wilderness skills. After several weeks, Voyager's crew, with the aid of Vidiian physician Danara Pel, was able to obtain an antiviral medication, and they returned to successfully treat Chakotay and Janeway. Chakotay and Janeway grew closer during their time alone together on the planet.In late 2373, Janeway began spending personal time in a holodeck program, a recreation of Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci.Janeway, who was a scientist by training, enjoyed working with the historical figure, drawing inspiration from his unique perspective of science and the world in general Janeway had always regarded da Vinci as a hero and had even built models of some of his designs when she was a child. Early in her Starfleet career, Janeway was a lieutenant on an away team mission during a Cardassian border dispute. Although Janeway and the other members of her team were later decorated by Starfleet for a military success, Janeway would later recall that she was most proud that she had helped to provide humanitarian medical aid to an injured Cardassian soldier, saving his life. In another instance, while serving aboard the U.S.S. Billings, shortly after her promotion to commander, Janeway blamed herself for a shuttle accident in which three crew members were injured on a scientific mission. Janeway completed her first starship command assignment in 2365. After returning from the mission, security specialist Tuvok criticized her in front of three Starfleet admirals for failing to observe proper tactical procedures during her voyage. It was Janeway's first meeting with Tuvok, and she would later agree that his criticisms were correct. Prior to Voyager's departure from Deep Space 9 in 2371, Janeway had been engaged to marry a man named Mark Johnson. After the ship was swept into the Delta Quadrant, she consciously avoided entering into a romantic relationship because of her commitment to Mark. In 2374, however, she was saddened when a message from Starfleet included a letter from Mark, in which he told of his marriage to a coworker. In 2378, a future version of Janeway traveled back in time and helped her bring her ship home through a Borg transwarp conduit. ("Nemesis" [Movie #10]; "Caretaker" [VGR #1&2], et al.; "Coda" [VGR]; "Macrocosm" [VGR]; "Resolutions" [VGR] "Once Upon a Time" [VGR]; "Sacred Ground [VGR]; "Remember" [VGR]; "The 37's" [VGR] "Future's End" [VGR]; "Coda" [VGR] "Hope and Fear" [VGR]; "Caretaker [VGR]; "Cathexis" [VGR]; "The Cloud" [VGR]; "Persistence of Vision" [VGR]; "The Cloud" [VGR]; "Threshold" [VGR]; "Year of Hell" [VGR]; "Resolutions" [VGR]; "Scorpion" [VGR]; "The Raven" [VGR]; "Prey" [VGR]; "Night" [VGR]; "Revulsion" [VGR]; "Hunters" [VGR]; "Quarantine" [Pocket SA]). Played by Kate Mulgrew. The character was named for American feminist writer Elizabeth Janeway. Actor Genevieve Bujold was originally cast as Captain Nicole Janeway, but she left the show after two days of production and was replaced with Kate Mulgrew as Kathryn Janeway. Janeway was not the first female starship captain seen on Star Trek. That honor went to the unnamed commander of the starship Saratoga, played by Madge Sinclair in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Janeway was, however, the first female series lead in Star Trek history.
Janeway, Kathryn (mirror).: In the mirror universe, a Terran slave of the Cardassian-Klingon Alliance. ("Avenger" [Pocket HC]; "Spectre" [Pocket TOS HC]).
Janklow.: Starfleet engineer assigned to Deep Space 9 in 2372. ("Starship Down" [DS9]).
Jannek.: Romulan ambassador. ("Blood & Honor" [Malibu DS9]).
Janos.: Starfleet officer assigned to the security department aboard the U.S.S. Excalibur. Janos is a mugato, an incredibly strong, hairy, ape-like being with a single horn on his head and razor sharp claws laced with deadly poison. The mugato, which come from the planet Neural, are generally non-sentient beasts. Ensign Janos was unique among his kind and was remarkably intelligent and gentle. He preferred to sleep hanging upside down and since his body was covered from head to toe with thick white fur, Janos usually goes without clothes when not on duty. ("Martyr" [Pocket NF #5]; "Fire on High" [Pocket NF #6]). This character was named after Janos Prohaska, the actor who portrayed the mugato in "A Private Little War" [TOS #45], the horta in "Devil in the Dark" [TOS #26], Yarnek the Excalbian in "The Savage Curtain" [TOS #77] and two zoo creatures in "The Cage" [TOS unaired pilot]. Prohaska created both the mugato and the horta outfits himself.
Janowski, Mary.: One of the surviving children of the Starnes Expedition whose parents committed suicide on planet Triacus in 2268. In the aftermath of the tragedy, Janowski was controlled by the Gorgan. ("And the Children Shall Lead" [TOS]). Played by Pamelyn Ferdin.
Janus VI.: Federation world, home to the Horta species. ("Devil in the Dark" [TOS]).
Jarada.: ("The Big Goodbye" [TNG]; "Imbalance" [Pocket TNG]; "Demons of Air and Darkness" [Pocket Gateways #4]; "Twilight" [Pocket DS9 Mission: Gamma #1]).
Jared, Acost.: Ventaxian head of state in 2367. Jared interpreted a series of apparently paranormal events on Ventax II as evidence that the mythic figure Ardra was returning to the planet to enslave the population, under the terms of the Contract of Ardra. Investigation by Enterprise-D personnel revealed this Ardra to be a fake. ("Devil's Due" [TNG]). Played by Marcello Tubert.
Jaresh-Inyo.: Federation President in 2372 whose administration faced a grave security threat from possible changeling infiltration, and an even greater threat from internal paranoia. When Founder infiltration on Earth was suspected following the bombing of the Antwerp Conference, Jaresh-Inyo reluctantly authorized sweeping security measures ranging from curtailment of civil liberties to the imposition of martial law. Jaresh-Inyo later rescinded the orders when it became clear that Starfleet Admiral Leyton was using the atmosphere of fear to foster a planned military coup of Earth's civilian government. Nevertheless, President Jaresh-Inyo recognized that the incident, including Leyton's sabotage of Earth's global power grid, clearly demonstrated a need for greater planetary security. Jaresh-Inyo was Grazerite. ("Homefront" [DS9]; "Paradise Lost" [DS9]). Played by Herschel Sparber.
Jareth.: Enaran military officer. Jareth was a loving father, but he was prejudiced against the ethnic group known as the Regressives. He forbade his daughter, Korenna Mirell, from seeing her lover, Dathan Alaris, because of his ethnic ties to that group. Jareth was an active participant of his government's deliberate and systematic extermination of Regressives in the mid-24th century. ("Remember" [VOY]). Played by Bruce Davison.
Jarleth.: Space traveler from the Delta Quadrant. Jarleth, whose homeworld had a desertlike environment, had been kidnapped by the Nyrians. ("Displaced" [VOY]). Played by Mark L. Taylor.
Jaro Essa.: Ambitious, politically conservative member of the Bajoran Chamber of Ministers. In 2370, Jaro welcomed the returning Li Nalas to Deep Space 9. He used the opportunity to push his political agenda with the Bajoran nationals on the station. It was later discovered that Jaro was the leader of the terrorist Alliance for Global Unity, also known as the Circle. Jaro used the Circle in his bid to overthrow the Bajoran provisional government, with himself as the new leader. In this effort, Jaro allied himself with the then Vedek Winn, who also sought to lead Bajor back to more orthodox values. Unfortunately for Jaro's plans, evidence of the Cardassian involvement in the Circle's activities was brought to the attention of the Chamber of Ministers. Jaro was subsequently forced from power. ("The Siege [DS9]; "The Circle" [DS9]; "The Homecoming" [DS9]). Played by Frank Langella, who also portrayed Skeletor in the film Masters of the Universe.; Jaro Essa ( Frank Langella ) - Male. Senior Minister of the Provisional Government. Attempted to take control of Bajor using the Alliance of Global Unity, also known as "The Circle". [The Circle] Went into hiding following the exposure of Cardassian involvement in the coup of 2370.
Ja'rod.: Member of the politically powerful Klingon House of Duras. Ja'rod was the man who betrayed his people to the Romulans at the Khitomer outpost in 2346. Ja'rod transmitted secret Klingon defense access codes to the Romulans, making him responsible for the Khitomer massacre in which 4,000 Klingons died, including Ja'rod. Years later, Ja'rod's son, High Council member Duras, attempted to cover up Ja'rod's crimes by falsifying evidence to implicate Mogh, Ja'rod's bitter political enemy, who was also killed at Khitomer. ("Sins of the Father" [TNG]).
Jarok, Alidar.: Romulan admiral who commanded the forces responsible for the massacre at the Norkan outposts. Nevertheless, Jarok was a deeply thoughtful man, who opposed policies of the Romulan government that he saw as the prelude to an unnecessary war.; Jarok was eventually censured for his outspokenness and was assigned to a strategically insignificant posting. There, the Romulan government fed him a carefully constructed stream of disinformation designed to convince him that planet Nelvana III was being prepared as a staging base for a massive assault against the Federation. Unable to prevent what he believed to be a major threat to galactic peace, in 2366 Jarok stole a scoutship and defected to the Federation. Jarok persuaded Enterprise-D Captain Picard to investigate these reports, leaning that there was no base, and that the Romulan High Command was testing Jarok's loyalties. In despair over his use as a pawn by his government, and over the loss of his former life, Jarok committed suicide. Jarok said he had done these things to help ensure that his daughter could grow up in a better universe. ("The Defector" [TNG #58]). Played by James Sloyan.
Jarren.: Elderly Drayan who died of natural causes in 2372. A shuttle carried Fayla and several others destined for their final ritual on one of the moons of Drayan II. The shuttle crashed on the moon and Jarren died shortly thereafter. ("Innocence" [VGR]).
Jarth.: Aide to Ambassador Ves Alkar at the time he helped negotiate peace on planet Rekag-Seronia in 2369. ("Man of the People" [TNG]). Played by Rick Scarry.
Jarvin.: Maquis crew member aboard Voyager. Jarvin was concerned that the status of the Maquis crew members might change after an altercation between B'Elanna Torres and Lieutenant Carey. He was ready to support Chakotay if he wanted to take control of Voyager. Later that year, Captain Janeway suspected he might wish to stay behind on the 37's planet. ("Parallax" [VGR]). Played by Justin Williams. Jarvin's name was not mentioned in dialog, but was given in the ending credits. He was later mentioned in "The 37's"
Jarvis.: Prefect of planet Argelius II. His wife, an empathic Argelian named Sybo, was murdered in 2267 by an alien entity that fed on fear. ("Wolf in the Fold" [TOS]) Played by Charles Macauley. Actor Charles Macauley also played the computer generated image of Landru in Return of the Archons [TOS].
Jarvis.: Starfleet crewperson on the starship Voyager. In 2372, she was ordered by Janeway, along with Parsons, to arrest the Doctor and Barclay when their programs attempted to go to engineering to disable the holo-emitters. ("Projections" [VGR]).
Jasad.: Cardassian gul, commander of a Cardassian warship of the Seventh Order. In 2369, Jasad threatened to reoccupy Deep Space 9 or destroy the station. ("Emissary" [DS9]). Played by Joel Snetow.
Jassan, U.S.S.: Federation starship proposed during the 23rd century. This vessel's construction was cancelled, and it's registry was assigned to another vessel. (Technical Manual [Franz Joseph TOS]; Ships of the Star Fleet [Mastercom]). It's possible ships of these names were still built, of different classes and registry numbers. If built, this ship would have been Achernar-class, with the registry NCC-1754, according to the manuals.
Javert.: Fictional character in Victor Hugo's 1862 novel Les Misérables. Javert was a French police inspector who relentlessly pursued a man named Valjean, who was guilty of a trivial offense. In the end Javert's own inflexibility destroyed him, and he committed suicide. Les Misérables was Maquis leader Michael Eddington's favorite book, and he saw himself as a dashing, romantic hero, fighting the good fight just like Valjean, the novel's hero. Eddington compared Captain Benjamin Sisko to the single-minded Javert. ("For the Uniform" [DS9]).
Jaya.: Inmate at the Tilonus Institute for Mental Disorders on Tilonus IV. Jaya claimed to be Commander Bloom of the starship Yorktown and offered to help Riker escape from captivity there in 2369. ("Frame of Mind" [TNG]). Played by Susanna Thompson. Thompson has also portrayed Varel in "The Next Phase" [TNG]; Lenara Kahn in "Rejoined" [DS9], and the Borg Queen in "Dark Frontier" [VGR] and "Unimatrix Zero" [VGR].
Jayden.: Name given to the amnesiac Data by Gia on planet Barkon IV in 2370. ("Thine Own Self" [TNG]).
Jaz Holza.: A Bajoran leader who resided on the third planet in the Valo system. Dr. Crusher had met Jaz at a symposium and found him to be very thoughtful and a good spokesman for his people. Ro Laren maintained, however, that Jaz held no real influence with the Bajoran people. ("Ensign Ro" [TNG]).
J'Dan.: Exobiologist who was assigned to the Enterprise-D in 2367 as part of the continuing Federation/Klingon Officer Exchange Program. While on the ship, J'Dan, a Klingon national, was discovered to have been part of a plan to steal restricted computer files and smuggle them to the Romulans. These files were transferred into amino acid-like molecules and injected into J'Dan's bloodstream, enabling them to be smuggled into Romulan hands. Technical designs of the Enterprise-D dilithium crystal articulation frame, taken by J'Dan on stardate 44758, were found to be in Romulan possession shortly thereafter. When confronted with evidence of his actions, J'Dan confessed to being a Romulan collaborator. ("The Drumhead" [TNG]). Played by Henry Woronicz.
Jefferson, Carl.: Starfleet commodore who ordered the starship Enterprise to tow the starship Sphinx to Deep Space Station M-20 rather than performing their own investigation. Jefferson later turned out to be a plant, a Section 31 operative. ("Cloak" [Pocket TOS Section 31]).
Jefferson Randolph Smith, U.S.S.: Federation starship, Sulek-class prospector, Starfleet registry NCC-29402. ("How Much for Just the Planet?" [Pocket TOS #36]).
Jellico, Edward.: Starfleet admiral. In 2367, when captain of the starship Cairo and assisted in negotiating the armistice between the Federation and the Cardassian Union. In 2369, with tensions between the Cardassians and the Federation again on the rise, Jellico was given temporary command of the Enterprise-D for a meeting with the Cardassian ship Reklar while Captain Picard was sent on a covert mission into Cardassian space. Jellico was known for his efficient, demanding style of command, which caused tension on the Enterprise and led him to relieve first officer Riker of duty for insubordination. In 2370, Jellico was promoted to admiral. In that year Admiral Jellico was on the board of inquiry that cleared Commander Mackenzie Calhoun of wrongdoing after the death of Captain Kenyon of the Grissom. Calhoun resigned despite this, causing bitterness between the two. In late 2373, the Thallonian Empire collapsed and a meeting was held aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise-E to discuss how Starfleet should respond to the potentially volatile situation. Present at this Thallonian summit were Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Commander William Riker, Admirals Nechayev and Jellico, former Thallonian prince Lord Si Cwan, Danteri Ambassador Ryjaan, and the 143-year-old Ambassador Spock. It was decided to send in a lone starship, the U.S.S. Excalibur, into the former Thallonian to render aid when necessary, to report back on the situation as it unfolded and to show the Federation flag in that unstable area. Over Admiral Jellico's objections, the command of the Excalibur was given to Captain Calhoun. ("Chain of Command" [TNG #136&137]; "House of Cards" [Pocket NF #1]; "Into the Void" [Pocket NF #2]; "Once Burned" [Pocket Captain's Table #5]; "Klingon" [Pocket Adapt.]). Played by Ronny Cox.
Jem'Hadar.: ("The Jem'Hadar" [DS9 #46]).
Jen-Saunor, Garamet.: Author of the 2283 novel Strangers From the Sky. ("Strangers From the Sky" [Pocket TOS Giant #2]).
Jenkins.: Starfleet ensign serving on the starship Voyager. Jenkins manned the helm during Harry Kim's night shifts at the conn. She thanks him, on behalf of the junior staff, for saving the crew from the Druoda Warhead. ("Warhead" [VGR]).
Jenkth.: ("Prime Directives" [Marvel SA #1]).
Jenolen, U.S.S.: Federation starship, Sydney-class transport, Starfleet registry NCC-2010. The Jenolen disappeared in 2294 and was presumed lost. It was not discovered until 2369 that the Jenolen had crashed into a Dyson Sphere, and that one passenger, Captain Montgomery Scott, had survived for 75 years by suspending himself in a modified transporter beam. Shortly after Scott's rescue, Geordi La Forge and Scott repaired the Jenolen's systems sufficiently to help the Enterprise-D escape from the sphere's interior, although the Jenolen was destroyed in the proces.("Relics" [TNG #130]). The Jenolen miniature was a modification of a shuttlecraft built by John Goodson of ILM for Star Trek VI. (It was the ship that transported our heroes up to Spacedock). The modifications by Greg Jein added warp engines to the model. The Jenolen model has been reused as a ship visiting Deep Space 9, notably as the transport U.S.S. Nash that brought the two Temporal Investigations agents to the station in "Trials and Tribble-ations" [DS9]. Fans have correctly pointed out that it shouldn't have been possible for Scotty and Geordi to be beamed off the Jenolen while that ship's shields were still up. The correct spelling of this vessel's name is questionable. The model was labeled 'Jenolin,' but the script and graphics read either 'Jenolan' or 'Jenolen.' Presumably this vessel is named after the Jenolan Caves in Australia.
Jenshahn, U.S.S.: Federation starship proposed during the 23rd century. This vessel's construction was cancelled, and it's registry was assigned to another vessel. (Technical Manual [Franz Joseph TOS]; Ships of the Star Fleet [Mastercom]). It's possible ships of these names were still built, of different classes and registry numbers. If built, this ship would have been Achernar-class, with the registry NCC-1791, according to the manuals.
Jen'Tain.: Curator of the museum of holy artifacts of New Ketira. ("Homeworld" [DC TOS vol.2 Annual #3]).
Jerrok Mor.: ("Dujonian's Hoard" [Pocket Captain's Table #2]).
Jersey, U.S.S.: Federation starship. Ulysses Montaya served aboard this ship. ("Judgment Rites" [Interplay TOS]).
Jetal.: Starfleet ensign on the starship Voyager. In 2375 she died from wounds suffered in an alien attack. The Doctor suffered a breakdown over the moral issues associated with her death. ("Latent Image" [VGR]).
jevonite.: Rare mineral found in the burial vaults of the First Hebitian civilization on Cardassia Prime 200 years ago. ("Chain of Command" [TNG]).
Jewel of Thesia.: SEE: Thesia, Jewel of. ("The Outrageous Okona" [TNG]).
Jex.: Illegal neural enhancer drug. ("Prime Directives" [Marvel SA #1]).
Jfolokh-class.: Type of Klingon starship. ("Armageddon Sky" [Pocket Day of Honor #2]).
