1:[1,#B],4:[1,#B],12:[1,#I],20:[1,#I],28:[2,#B],84:[14,#I]@1Kelinda@2(Barbara Bouchet). Kelvan who assisted in the capture of the Enterprise landing party in 2268 and forced the Enterprise crew to set a course for the Andromeda Galaxy. Having taken a female humanoid form, Kelinda was susceptible to the new and unfamiliar feelings that accompanied her new body. Kirk took advantage of this, confusing her and the other members of her race with human sensations until they surrendered the ship and accepted a Federation offer of peace. (“By Any Other Name” [TOS]). Barbara Bouchet played Miss Moneypenny to David Niven's James Bond in the 1967 movie Casino Royale.
~1: [1, #b], 39: [1, #b], 52: [1, #i], 79: [1, #b]@1Kell@2(Larry Dobkin). A special emissary from the Klingon High Command, later found to be a Romulan operative. Kell tried to use his position to instigate distrust between the Federation and Klingon governments following an attempted revolt on Krios in 2367. A major tactic was Kell's acquisition of mental control over Enterprise -D officer Geordi La Forge. Kell used an E-band transmitter to send signals directly to La Forge, attempting to command La Forge to assassinate Klingon governor Vagh. (“The Mind's Eye” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],7:[1,#I],22:[2,#B],29:[3,#B],43:[25,#I]@1Keller, Ensign@2A member of the Enterprise -D's engineering staff. She died as the result of a failure in the ship's antimatter containment systems. A breach of the matter/antimatter reaction chamber forced the closure of the isolation doors, trapping Keller. (“Violations” [TNG]). The incident in which Keller died presumably took place before “Violations,” but we don't know much else about it because it was a flashback scene.
~1:[1,#B],12:[7,#I],23:[8,#I]@1kellicam@2Unit of distance measure in use by the Klingon Empire. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, “Redemption, Part I” [TNG]). One kellicam was roughly equal to two kilometers.
~1:[1,#B],10:[1,#B],14:[1,#B]@1kellipates@2 Unit of distance or area measure on planet Bajor. Kira Nerys told Mullibok about a huge tree whose branches blotted out the sun for kellipates. (“Progress” [DS9]).
~1:[3,#B],8:[1,#I],9:[1,#BI],22:[2,#B]@1Kelly, Lieutenant Joshua@2Chief engineer of the Starship Yosemite, killed when the ship was investigating a binary star system in the Igo Sector in 2369. (“Realm of Fear” [TNG]).
~1:[3,#B],8:[2,#BI],23:[1,#B]@1Kelly, Lieutenant Morgan@2Security officer of the U.S.S. Essex, apparently killed in the crash of that vessel on the moon of planet Mab-Bu IV in 2167. (“Power Play” [TNG]).
~1:[3,#B],6:[1,#I],21:[2,#B],30:[1,#B],49:[2,#BI],56:[2,#B],73:[1,#I],76:[9,#I]@1Kelowitz, Lieutenant Commander@2(Grant Woods). Enterprise security officer who was part of the landing party to the Federation outpost on Cestus III in 2367. Unlike his counterpart, Security Officer Lang, Kelowitz survived the mission. (“Arena” [TOS]). Kelowitz was a landing party member who participated in the search for Shuttlecraft Galileo when it crashed on planet Taurus II in 2267. He delivered a report on the humanoid creatures found on that planet. (“The Galileo Seven” [TOS]). Kelowitz also appeared in “This Side of Paradise” (TOS).
~1:[2,#B],7:[1,#B],18:[2,#BI],22:[1,#I]@1Kelrabi System@2Star system located in Cardassian space, destination of a Cardassian supply ship intercepted by the U.S.S. Phoenix and the Enterprise -D in 2367. (“The Wounded” [TNG]).
~1:[1,#B],13:[2,#B],17:[1,#I],24:[2,#B]@1Kelsey@2(Marie Marshall). Leader of a terrorist group that attempted to steal trilithium resin when the Enterprise -D was being serviced at the Remmler Array in 2369. (“Starship Mine” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],5:[1,#I],15:[2,#B],19:[2,#B],28:[25,#I]@1Kelso, Chief@2(J. Downing). Enterprise -D engineering technician who operated the transporter during the particle fountain malfunction at Tyrus VIIA in 2369. (“The Quality of Life” [TNG]). This character was named by writer Naren Shankar in homage to character Lee Kelso from the pilot episode “Where No Man Has Gone Before” (TOS).
~1:[3,#B],10:[2,#I],27:[2,#B],40:[2,#B]@1Kelso, Lieutenant Lee@2(Paul Carr). Helm officer aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise during the early days of Kirk's first five-year mission in 2265. Kelso was killed by Gary Mitchell while helping to implement a plan to quarantine Mitchell on planet Delta Vega. (“Where No Man Has Gone Before” [TOS]).
~1:[1,#B],16:[1,#B]@1Kelva@2Planet in the Andromeda Galaxy that was homeworld to a race known as the Kelvans. (“By Any Other Name” [TOS]).
~1:[1,#B],5:[1,#B],8:[2,#B],76:[2,#B],106:[1,#I],113:[1,#I],130:[1,#I],173:[2,#B]@1Kelvans@2Life-forms from planet Kelva in the Andromeda Galaxy. Although they are highly intelligent and their bodies have a hundred tentacles, Kelvans have no tactile perceptions or emotions as we know them. When Kelvan scientists recognized that increasing radiation levels in their galaxy would make life impossible in ten millennia, the Kelvan Empire dispatched several ships to explore the universe for a new place to live. One of their explorer ships was damaged entering the galactic barrier at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy and the crew abandoned ship. Taking humanoid form, the Kelvans dispatched a general distress call that was answered by the Enterprise in 2268. The Kelvans commandeered the Enterprise, forcing the starship to cross the barrier and to set course for the Andromeda Galaxy. The Enterprise crew was able to regain control of their ship by using the Kelvans' unfamiliarity with humanoid senses to confuse and distract them. Kirk then invited the Kelvans to settle in Federation space and live in peace. (“By Any Other Name” [TOS]). SEE: Kelinda; Rojan.
~1:[2,#B],7:[3,#B],11:[1,#I]@1Kenda II@2Federation planet, home of Dr. Dalen Quaice. The Enterprise -D was scheduled to return Quaice to Kenda II while en route to planet Durenia IV in early 2367. (“Remember Me” [TNG]).
~1:[1,#B],2:[1,#I],14:[2,#B],18:[1,#I],24:[2,#B]@1Kenicki@2Enterprise -D crew member who suffered from hallucinations caused by lack of REM sleep while the Enterprise -D was adrift in a Tyken's Rift in 2367. Kenicki reported seeing someone in an old-style starfleet uniform riding the turbolift in Engineering. (“Night Terrors” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],14:[1,#B],20:[1,#B],34:[2,#B],38:[1,#I],57:[1,#BI],58:[2,#B],60:[12,#I],74:[5,#I]@1Kennelly, Admiral@2(Cliff Potts). Federation official who made a secret pact with the Cardassians in 2368 to eliminate the Bajoran terrorists believed responsible for an attack against a Federation colony. Kennelly planted Ensign Ro Laren on the Enterprise -D to carry out his plan. Kennelly's plan was discovered, and he was imprisoned. (“Ensign Ro” [TNG]). SEE: Antares -class carrier. Cliff Potts had played one of the crew members on the spaceship Valley Forge in Douglas Trumbull's 1972 film, Silent Running.
~1:[1,#B],9:[3,#B]@1Kentor@2(Richard Allen). Young community leader of the Tau Cygna V colony in 2366. (“The Ensigns of Command” [TNG]).
~1:[1,#B],21:[2,#B]@1Kerelian@2Alien race whose hearing can distinguish a greater range of musical notes than that of humans. Jean-Luc Picard told Neela Daren that a Kerelian tenor had a wide range of musical nuances only others of their race could hear. (“Lessons” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],9:[2,#B],15:[1,#B],22:[6,#I]@1Kerla, Brigadier@2(Paul Rossilli). Military advisor to Klingon chancellor Gorkon, and later to Chancellor Azetbur. Kerla opposed Gorkon's 2293 peace initiative. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country).
~1:[1,#B],24:[1,#B]@1Kesla@2Name given to unidentified mass murderer of women on planet Deneb II, later found to be an energy life-form also known as Redjac. (“Wolf in the Fold” [TOS]).
~1:[1,#B],6:[1,#B]@1kevas@2Goods traded on planet Organia. Spock posed as a trader dealing in kevas and trillium. (“Errand of Mercy” [TOS]).
~1:[1,#B],26:[2,#B],71:[3,#BI],77:[2,#I],81:[2,#I],97:[1,#I],153:[1,#I],154:[1,#BI],160:[1,#I],165:[4,#B],172:[2,#B],184:[1,#I],196:[1,#I],197:[7,#I]@1Khan@2(Ricardo Montalban). Aka Khan Noonien Singh. Genetically engineered human who attempted to gain control of the entire planet Earth in the 1990s during the Eugenics Wars. From 1992-1996 Khan was absolute ruler of more than a quarter of Earth, from South Asia through the Middle East. He was the last of the tyrants to be overthrown. Khan escaped in 1996 with a band of followers aboard the sleeper ship S.S. Botany Bay. In 2267 the Starship Enterprise discovered the Botany Bay and awakened Khan and his people. Once awakened, Khan attempted to take over the Enterprise, but was thwarted. Captain Kirk exercised command prerogatives in dropping all charges when Khan agreed to be exiled to planet Ceti Alpha V to start a new life. (“Space Seed” [TOS]). Khan and his followers remained on Ceti Alpha V for several years until they were accidentally discovered by a scientific reconnaissance party from the Starship Reliant in 2285. Khan commandeered the Reliant and ransacked the nearby Regula I Space Laboratory, stealing the experimental Genesis Device. Khan, along with his followers and the crew of the Reliant, was killed when the Genesis Device exploded while on board the Reliant. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan).
~1:[1,#BI],5:[1,#I],11:[2,#B],16:[2,#B],29:[2,#B]@1Khazara@2Imperial Romulan Warbird, D'Deridex class. This ship, captained by Commander Toreth, was seized by Subcommander N'Vek and Deanna Troi as part of a plot to enable Romulan vice-proconsul M'ret to defect to the Federation. (“Face of the Enemy” [TNG]).
~1: [1, #b], 34: [2, #b], 36: [6, #i], 85: [2, #b], 189: [1, #b], 210: [2, #b]@1Khitomer@2Class-M planet near the Romulan/Klingon border. Khitomer was the site of the historic Khitomer peace conference in 2293 that was the beginning of rapprochement between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country). At the conference, Captain Spock first met Pardek, a Romulan politician who expressed support for a reunification of the Vulcan and Romulan peoples. (“Unification, Part I” [TNG]). A Klingon outpost was later established on this planet, and was the target of the brutal Khitomer massacre by the Romulans in 2346. (“Sins of the Father” [TNG]). In 2369, Worf learned that some of the Klingons believed killed at Khitomer were actually taken prisoner by the Romulans. Nearly a hundred Klingons had been discovered unconscious at a perimeter outpost, and the Romulans, reluctant to kill helpless people, instead took them prisoner. (“Birthright, Part I” [TNG]). The prisoners proved to be of no political use, and they later refused an offer of freedom even though the Romulan government favored their execution, since permitting themselves to be captured, however involuntarily, was a serious breach of the Klingon warrior ethic. Romulan officer Tokath opposed the execution of the Klingons, and sacrificed his military career to establish and command a prison camp in the Carraya System. (“Birthright, Part II” [TNG]).
~1: [2, #b], 14: [1, #b], 59: [1, #b], 64: [1, #b], 71: [2, #i], 88: [1, #b], 100: [1, #b], 130: [1, #b], 139: [24, #i]@1Khitomer massacre@2A brutal attack by Romulan forces on the Klingon outpost at Khitomer in 2346. Some 4,000 Klingons were killed in the incident, later learned to have been made possible by the betrayal of Ja'rod, a Klingon who provided secret defense access codes to the Romulans. The only survivors of the massacre were a Klingon child named Worf and his nursemaid named Kahlest. The two were rescued by the U.S.S. Intrepid, which responded to the Klingons' distress calls. Years later, in 2366, Klingon High Council member Duras, son of Ja'rod, attempted to falsify evidence to implicate Worf's father, Mogh, as the one who provided the codes to the Romulans. Duras was only partly successful, since Worf learned of the injustice and made an appeal to High Council leader K'mpec. (“Sins of the Father” [TNG]). Star Trek VI establishes that Khitomer was near the Romulan border. We speculate that the massacre was part of an ongoing border dispute between the two powers.
~1:[1,#B]@1kilodyne@2A measurement of force, one thousand dynes. (“The Loss” [TNG]).
~1:[1,#B],18:[14,#I],33:[17,#I],52:[33,#I]@1kiloquad@2Unit of measure of data storage and transmission in Federation computer systems. (“Realm of Fear” [TNG]). No, we don't know how many bytes are in a kiloquad. We don't even want to know. The reason the term was invented was specifically to avoid describing the data capacity of Star Trek's computers in 20th-century terms. It was feared by technical consultant Mike Okuda that any such attempt would look foolish in just a few years, given the current rate of progress in that field.
~1:[2,#B],11:[1,#B],15:[2,#B],38:[1,#B]@1Kim, Luisa@2(Elizabeth Lindsey). Terraforming scientist, part of the unsuccessful terraforming project at planet Velara III. Kim had great enthusiasm for her work and was devastated to learn that the Velara III project would have destroyed the microbrain life-forms there. (“Home Soil” [TNG]).
~1:[3,#B],9:[4,#B],15:[2,#B]@1Kingsley, Dr. Sara@2(Patricia Smith). Scientist at the Darwin Genetic Research Station on planet Gagarin IV. In the late 2350s and 2360s, Kingsley was part of a genetic-engineering project intended to develop human children with a powerful immune system capable of attacking disease organisms before they enter a human body. After these children were several years old it was learned that the children's antibodies could also attack human beings, causing a disease closely resembling hyperaccelerated aging. Although Kingsley was afflicted by the antibodies, a transporter-based technique was successful in restoring her to her normal age. (“Unnatural Selection” [TNG]).

~1:[5,#B],19:[6,#I]@1Kiri-kin-tha's First Law of Metaphysics@2“Nothing unreal exists.” Spock recited this quote during a memory test in 2286. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home).
~1:[2,#B],8:[1,#B],14:[3,#B],23:[3,#B],29:[2,#B]@1Kirk, Aurelan@2(Joan Swift). Colonist on planet Deneva who was killed by the Denevan neural parasites in 2267. Aurelan was wife of George Samuel Kirk and mother to Peter Kirk. (“Operation— Annihilate!” [TOS]).
~1:[3,#B],12:[3,#B],24:[1,#B],39:[3,#B],90:[1,#I],98:[64,#I]@1Kirk, George Samuel@2(William Shatner). Research biologist and older brother to James T. Kirk. Sam had been working on a project at planet Deneva, where he lived with his wife and three sons. Sam was killed by the Denevan neural parasites in 2267. Samuel Kirk had been living on Deneva with his wife Aurelan and son Peter when the parasites infested the planet's population. (“Operation— Annihilate!” [TOS]). Sam had seen his younger brother — the only one who called him Sam — off on his first mission aboard the Enterprise. (“What Are Little Girls Made Of?” [TOS]). Sam was established in “What Are Little Girls Made Of?” (TOS) to have had three sons, one of whom, Peter, was seen in “Operation— Annihilate!” (TOS). We don't know anything about Peter's two brothers, although they presumably were not at the Deneva colony at the time Sam and Aurelan were killed. Sam was only seen briefly as an already-dead body, “played” by William Shatner.

~1:[4,#B],10:[1,#BI],11:[1,#B],14:[2,#B],19:[2,#I],69:[2,#B],84:[2,#B],93:[1,#I]@1Kirk, James T. (mirror)@2(William Shatner). Captain of the I.S.S. Enterprise in the mirror universe. Assumed command of I.S.S. Enterprise through assassination of Captain Christopher Pike. Kirk's first action for the Empire was to suppress a Gorlan uprising by destroying a rebel home planet. His second action was the execution of 5,000 colonists on Vega IX. The mirror Kirk was transposed into our universe in 2267 when an ion storm caused a brief bridge between the two existences. It was believed that the mirror Spock would overthrow Kirk as commander of the Enterprise, thereby opening the way to breaking the mirror empire's pattern of repressive barbarism. (“Mirror, Mirror” [TOS])
