Highly advanced noncorporeal life-form (“Caretaker” [VGR]) based on sporocystian energy. The Caretaker’s people were extradimensional explorers from another galaxy who called themselves the Nacene. (“Cold Fire” [VGR]). About 1,000 years ago, they accidentally devastated the atmosphere of the Ocampa planet, rendering the surface a desert. The Caretaker was one of two travelers who remained behind to care for the Ocampa. With the planet’s surface all but uninhabitable, the Caretaker created a subterranean city for the Ocampa, and supplied them with energy by using his spaceborne Array. (“Caretaker” [VGR]). The Caretaker’s mate, a female named Suspiria (“Cold Fire” [VGR]), went off to look for more interesting places. By 2371, the Caretaker was dying. He searched the galaxy for life-forms with a compatible bio-molecular pattern in order to procreate, hoping an offspring would continue to care for the Ocampa. While searching for compatible life-forms, the Caretaker abducted more than 50 ships from across the galaxy, including the Voyager and Chakotay’s Maquis vessel. The Caretaker’s search proved fruitless, and he died shortly thereafter without leaving an offspring. His final act to protect the Ocampa was to persuade Voyager Captain Janeway to destroy his Array to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Kazon-Ogla. (“Caretaker” [VGR]). Ten months after his death near the Ocampa homeworld, the Caretaker’s remains reacted to a sporocystian energy field, making it possible for the Voyager crew to determine the location of Suspiria, the Caretaker’s mate. (“Cold Fire” [VGR]). The Caretaker took the form of an old grizzled man with a banjo, listed in the episode’s credits as the Banjo Man. Not to be confused with the Caretaker who supervised the amusement park planet in “Shore Leave” (TOS).
~1:[1,#B],8:[3,#B],22:[2,#I],75:[1,#I],112:[7,#B],119:[15,#I]@1Caretaker@2(Oliver McGowan). Supervisor of a sophisticated amusement park planet in the Omicron Delta region when a landing party from the U.S.S. Enterprise visited in 2267. The planet had advanced hardware that could read the minds of visitors, then manufacture whatever it was they imagined. It was the Caretaker’s responsibility to coordinate such activities and make sure things ran smoothly. When it was apparent his guests were not enjoying themselves, he appeared to the Enterprise personnel, explaining that this was an amusement park where beings could visit and play. The Caretaker agreed that the more sophisticated the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play. (“Shore Leave” [TOS]). SEE: Finnegan; Police Special; Ruth; tiger; White Rabbit. Not to be confused with the Caretaker encountered in the Delta Quadrant in “Caretaker” (VGR).

Voyager at the time the ship was lost in 2371. Carey became acting chief engineer after the chief engineer was killed during the ship’s violent passage to the Delta Quadrant. (“Caretaker” [VGR]). Carey was disappointed when Captain Janeway later promoted B’Elanna Torres for the position of chief engineer, but soon recognized Torres’s superior qualifications. (“Parallax” [VGR]). Lieutenant Carey had a wife and two small sons. He helped Torres and Seska in their unauthorized attempt to employ trajector technology on the Voyager. (“Prime Factors.” [VGR]). In a possible future visited by Kes, Carey and several others aboard the Voyager died in an attack by a Krenim ship. (“Before and After” [VGR]). Carey got a first name in “Before and After” (VGR). Carey was also seen in “State of Flux” (VGR). He was first seen in “Caretaker” (VGR).

Cargo bays aboard the Galaxy -class Starship Enterprise -D were located on Decks 4, 38, and 39. Aboard the Intrepid -class U.S.S. Voyager, cargo bays were located on Decks 4 and 10. (“Macrocosm” [VGR]).
~1:[2,#B],43:[19,#I]@1Carmichael, Mrs.@2(Pamela Kosh). Landlady in 19th-century San Francisco on Earth who had the misfortune of renting an apartment to an itinerant theater group headed by a “Mr. Pickerd.” The group was terribly late with its rent. (“Time’s Arrow, Part II” [TNG]). Samuel Clemens did say he would make good on the rent. We are confident that he kept his word.

~1:[2,#BI],6:[1,#I],14:[1,#I],32:[1,#I],37:[2,#B],43:[2,#BI]@1Carolina, U.S.S.@2Federation starship. The Carolina apparently sent an emergency signal to the Enterprise on stardate 3497. The transmission turned out to be a hoax, a Klingon attempt to prevent the Enterprise from returning to planet Capella IV. (“Friday’s Child” [TOS]). SEE: Dierdre, S.S.
~1:[2,#B],22:[2,#B],43:[1,#B],114:[1,#B],124:[1,#B],133:[1,#B],199:[65,#I]@1Carraya System@2Near the Romulan/Klingon border, the location of a secret Romulan prison camp. This camp, established several months after the Khitomer massacre in 2346, imprisoned nearly a hundred Klingon prisoners who had been captured, unconscious, from a perimeter outpost. Romulan officer Tokath sacrificed his military career in a humanitarian gesture to establish the Carraya camp where these prisoners could be incarcerated so that the Romulan government would not execute them. In the years that followed, a peaceful coexistence developed between the Romulan jailers and their captives, whose Klingon warrior ethic would not permit them to return to their homeworld after having been captured in battle. Commander Tokath even took a Klingon woman, Gi’ral, as his wife, and they had a daughter named Ba’el, and other Klingon captives had children as well. Worf discovered the camp in 2369 while investigating rumors that his father might not have been killed at Khitomer. Discovering the reports to be untrue, Worf escorted some of the Klingon children, by then having reached adulthood, back to the Klingon Empire. Worf and the children all agreed never to reveal the existence of the camp to the outside world. (“Birthright, Parts I and II” [TNG]). Worf’s promise means that neither Starfleet nor the Klingon government is likely to have any record of the camp at Carraya. The exterior of the prison camp was designed by Richard James, from which a model was built that was the basis for a matte painting executed by Dan Curry. (Production designer James was, of course, also responsible for the full-size interior sets, as well.)

Generally regarded as a lifetime achievement award, the Carrington in 2371 was awarded to Dr. Henri Roget. Also nominated that year was Dr. Julian Bashir, the youngest nominee in the history of the award. (“Prophet Motive” [DS9]). The Federation official who presented the Carrington Award, listed as “Medical Big Shot” in the episode’s credits, was played by Bennet G. Suillory.

The M-5 multitronic computer, when being tested aboard the Enterprise, chose Ensign Carstairs for landing party duty on stardate 4729 to planet Alpha Carinae II. M-5 picked Carstairs over Senior Geologist Rawlens because the ensign had surveyed geologically similar planets for a mining company while serving in the merchant marine.

Cartwright presided over emergency operations from Starfleet Headquarters in San Francisco when an alien probe threatened the Earth in 2286. (Star Trek IV The Voyage Home). Politically conservative and extremely wary of the Klingon government, Cartwright opposed the peace initiative of Klingon Chancellor Gorkon, and participated in the conspiracy with Klingon General Chang for Gorkon’s assassination in 2293.

A cascade anomaly was suspected in the failure of the android, Juliana Tainer, to regain consciousness after an accident on Atrea IV in 2370. This was later discovered to be untrue; Juliana’s unconsciousness was a part of a program to protect her from discovering she was not human. (“Inheritance” [TNG]).SEE: positronic brain. A cascade failure was responsible for the death of Data’s daughter, Lal.
~1:[2,#B],11:[2,#B],22:[2,#I]@1cascade virus@2Sophisticated computer software weapon. In 2373, Maquis leader Michael Eddington placed a cascade virus in the systems of the U.S.S. Defiant.

The helm officer of the Enterprise -C. He was injured in 2344 in the battle with Romulans at Narendra III. During the battle, Castillo was transported along with his ship into the future, to the year 2366, when a torpedo explosion opened up a temporal rift. With the disappearance of the Enterprise -C from its “proper” time frame, history developed in a dramatically altered manner. In this altered future, Castillo served as liaison between the Enterprise -C and Enterprise -D, working closely with tactical officer Natasha Yar (alternate), with whom he became romantically involved. When it was learned that the Enterprise -C had to return to the past to restore the “proper” flow of history, Castillo volunteered to command the ship after the death of Captain Rachel Garrett. Castillo understood that returning to the past to repair history was a virtual suicide mission. (“Yesterday’s Enterprise” [TNG]).

Caylem’s wife was caught by the Mokra after she led a raid on a Mokra supply center, and in 2360, she died in prison. Their daughter, Ralkana, was killed while trying to rescue her mother. Caylem was a gentle man who was so affected by these tragedies that he blocked the memories of them out of his mind. He spent the rest of his life believing that his wife and daughter were still alive, conducting quixotic missions to rescue them from the Mokra. In 2372, during an away-team mission to Caylem’s planet, Captain Kathryn Janeway was seriously injured. Caylem, who was delusional, nursed Janeway’s injuries, believing her to be his daughter, Ralkana. Caylem was killed helping Janeway free two of her officers from Mokra imprisonment. In doing so, he ultimately gave his life for the cause of the resistance movement. (“Resistance” [VGR]). SEE: Darod.

After Captain Garth suffered an accident in the 2260s, he went to planet Antos IV, where the people taught him cellular metamorphosis to restore his health. He then used those techniques to take the shape of anyone he chose, giving him dangerous power in his mentally unstable state. (“Whom Gods Destroy” [TOS]). SEE: shape-shifter.
~1:[2,#B],15:[2,#B],20:[1,#I],82:[1,#I],87:[2,#B],91:[1,#I]@1cellular peptides@2Biochemical substance involved in maintaining cellular cohesion in the human body. The interphasic organisms that plagued the Enterprise -D consumed the cellular peptides from their host’s bodies. At about the same time, Data began having nightmares that included Worf taking a bite out of a cellular peptide cake with mint frosting made in the image of Troi. Data later learned that this dream was symbolic of the interphasic organisms extracting the cellular peptides from the crew members of the Enterprise -D. (“Phantasms” [TNG]). The memory virus discovered by Voyager personnel in 2373 thrived on peptides generated by its host’s brain. (“Flashback” [VGR]).
~1:[2,#B]@1cellular toxicity@2Measurement of biological waste products accumulating within a life-form’s cells. Neelix’s cellular toxicity level rose after his lungs were removed in 2371, due to his body’s inability to oxygenate and remove wastes from his bloodstream. (“Phage” [VGR]).

Older and more experienced than most members of the crew, the centurion counseled a cautious strategy in confronting the Enterprise but was overruled when the politically ambitious Decius advocated a more provocative approach. (“Balance of Terror” [TOS]). Centurion was a rank in the Romulan guard, approximately equivalent to a captain in the Federation Starfleet.
~1:[2,#B],35:[3,#B]@1Cerebus II@2Planet. The natives of Cerebus II developed a treatment that reverses the aging process in humans. The process, involving herb and drug combinations, was very painful and had a high mortality rate.

Location of a Federation outpost destroyed by a reptilian civilization known as the Gorn in 2267. The Federation had at the time been unaware that Cestus III was in space the Gorn considered to be their own territory, and that the Gorn had been protecting their own sovereignty. Unfortunately, the Gorn attack on the Federation outpost left only a single survivor. (“Arena” [TOS]). Misunderstandings with the Gorn were eventually resolved, and the planet was colonized by Federation settlers. In mid-2371, the colonists on Cestus III formed a league of six baseball teams. Two of the teams were the Cestus Comets and the Pike City Pioneers. (“Family Business” [DS9]). Cestus III is eight weeks’ travel from the Bajor Sector at maximum warp. (“The Way of the Warrior” [DS9]). The location for filming Cestus III as well as for the Metrons’ planetoid in “Arena” was Vasquez Rocks, near Los Angeles, which was used for various television and feature productions. Other Star Trek episodes filmed there include “Shore Leave” (TOS), “The Alternative Factor” (TOS), “Friday’s Child” (TOS), “Who Watches the Watchers?” (TNG), “The Homecoming” (DS9), and one shot in Star Trek IV. The Cestus III outpost was actually a fort constructed for the feature The Alamo, produced in the 1930s. The fort was demolished in the late 1960s because it was thought to be in danger of collapse.

Kirk and Spock, traveling back in time, visited the Cetacean Institute to find two humpback whales in hopes of repopulating that species in Earth’s 23rd century. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home). SEE: Taylor, Dr. Gillian. The Cetacean Institute scenes in Star Trek IV were filmed at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which looks a lot like the Cetacean Institute except that it doesn’t have a big whale tank (which was added with a bit of visual effects magic by ILM). The name had to be changed to the Cetacean Institute because it was necessary, for plot reasons, to move the location of the aquarium to Sausalito. The Cetacean Institute symbol is actually the logo of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, even though the name was changed to protect the innocent.

Khan Noonien Singh and his followers, along with Enterprise historian Marla McGivers, were exiled to Ceti Alpha V following their attempt to commandeer the Enterprise in 2267. The world was described as a bit savage, somewhat inhospitable, but livable. (“Space Seed” [TOS]). Following the explosion of sister planet Ceti Alpha VI later that year, Ceti Alpha V became nearly uninhabitable. During the following years, twenty of Khan’s followers, including Marla McGivers, were killed by deadly Ceti eels. Khan and his surviving followers escaped in 2285 when the planet was being surveyed by the U.S.S. Reliant as a possible test site for the Genesis Project. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan).

Ceti eels were mollusk-like creatures whose young incubated inside the brains of humanoid life-forms. These parasites caused the host considerable pain and left the host susceptible to external suggestion. Twenty of Khan’s followers were killed by Ceti eels, and Khan used the creatures to gain the cooperation of Captain Terrell and Commander Chekov. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan).

The duty of the cha’DIch is to defend the one challenged, since the one challenged is denied the right of combat while accused. Worf chose his brother, Kurn, as cha’DIch when their late father, Mogh, was accused of treason. When Kurn was the target of attempted murder, Worf asked Captain Picard to serve as cha’DIch. (“Sins of the Father” [TNG]). The ritual knife given to Picard as cha’DIch can be seen on the desk in his quarters during “Suddenly Human” (TNG). Jono used the knife to stab Captain Picard.
