Starfleet propulsion specialist who attempted to perform a series of computer-based upgrades on starship warp drives in 2364. Kosinski's upgrades apparently produced measurable improvements on the starships Ajax and Fearless, and spectacular improvements on the Enterprise -D, but were later found to be baseless. The performance improvements were instead found to be due to the intervention of the Traveler, who had the ability to exploit the interchangeability of time, space, and thought. (“Where No One Has Gone Before” [TNG]). Wesley Crusher conducted additional tests on Kosinski's equations in 2367, resulting in the accidental creation of a static warp bubble in which his mother, Beverly Crusher, became temporarily trapped.

The chief investigator for the Tanugan security force who investigated allegations that William Riker had been responsible for the death of Dr. Nel Apgar in 2366. Krag agreed to a holodeck reenactment of the events aboard the station, which ultimately led to Riker's acquittal and the discovery that Apgar had been responsible for his own death. (“A Matter of Perspective” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],13:[3,#B],25:[1,#B]@1Krako, Jojo@2(Victor Tayback). Boss of the south side territory on planet Sigma Iotia II in 2268. (“A Piece of the Action” [TOS]). SEE: Iotians.

Krax was shocked in 2369 when, at a trade conference at Deep Space 9, his father apparently died, appointing Quark as his successor. Krax subsequently plotted with Quark's brother, Rom, to kill the new Grand Nagus until Zek's death was found to be a ruse intended to test Krax's suitability to one day assume his father's mantle. (“The Nagus” [DS9]). Lou Wagner also played DaiMon Solok in “Chain of Command, Part I” (TNG).

Dr. Nel Apgar of the planet Tanuga IV was attempting to develop a Krieger-wave converter for use by the Federation. The converter consisted of a Lambda field generator located on the planet's surface, and a series of reflective coils and mirrors, located in a science station in orbit. The energy from the field generator was projected off the elements of the converter and turned into Krieger waves. Apgar was killed when his research station exploded in 2366 before he could complete his project. (“A Matter of Perspective” [TNG]). Krieger waves were named for Star Trek science consultant David Krieger.

(“The Mind's Eye” [TNG]). The inhabitants of Krios had been at war with the neighboring system, Valt Minor, for centuries. Krios was named for one of two brothers who, centuries ago, shared the rule of a vast empire in space. Krios and his brother, Valt, both fell in love with a woman named Garuth, but Krios kidnapped her and took her to the star system that would later bear his name. War erupted between Valt Minor and Krios. In 2368, a historic Ceremony of Reconciliation was held in hopes of ending the centuries of conflict. (“The Perfect Mate” [TNG]). SEE: Kamala.

Krola opposed the Malcorian space program and was barely tolerant of the government's social reforms. Upon discovering that the Federation had been conducting covert surveillance of his planet in 2367, Krola tried to make it appear that he had been killed by Commander William Riker. Although Chancellor Durken learned of Krola's scheme, Durken ultimately accepted Krola's recommendation to postpone indefinitely Malcor III's ambitious space program. (“First Contact” [TNG]). Michael Ensign also played Lojal in “The Forsaken” (DS9).

Gorkon was killed aboard that ship by forces that sought to obstruct the peace process. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country). Kronos One was a modification of the Klingon battle cruiser built for the first Star Trek movie, which was in turn based on the Klingon ship built in 1968 for the original Star Trek series. SEE: Klingon spacecraft.

The Ktarian game employed small lasers that played directly on the optic nerve, creating a holographic image of a game field on which the player used mental control to direct the trajectory of small flying disks into various target funnel shapes. The game had powerful psychotropically addictive properties that rendered the player extremely susceptible to external control. (“The Game” [TNG]). SEE: Jol, Etana.
~1:[2,#B],10:[2,#B],16:[1,#I],42:[1,#I]@1Ktarian vessel@2A small spacecraft commanded by Ktarian operative Etana Jol.

Klingon warp-field specialist who was invited aboard the Enterprise -D in 2369 to participate in the test of a new metaphasic shield invented by Dr. Reyga. When the inventor of the shield was murdered, she came under suspicion as his killer. (“Suspicions” [TNG]). Tricia O'Neil had previously played Enterprise -C captain Rachel Garrett in “Yesterday's Enterprise” (TNG).
~1:[1,#B],46:[2,#B]@1Kurl@2Planet located a considerable distance from Federation space. Kurl was once the home of a thriving humanoid civilization, but the Kurlans all disappeared thousands of years ago, leaving behind a rich cultural heritage that is still being studied by archaeologists.

~1: [2, #b], 83: [3, #b], 95: [2, #b], 132: [17, #i]@1Kurlan Naiskos@2Archaeological artifact. A small ceramic figure about 30 cm high, Naiskos statues were produced in ancient times by the people of planet Kurl. These statues were designed to be opened, revealing a multitude of similar but smaller figurines inside, representing the Kurlan belief that each person is made up of a community of individuals with different voices and desires. Although many ancient Naiskos have been found by archaeologists, relatively few are intact, and fewer still have all the smaller figurines. Professor Richard Galen gave an intact Kurlan Naiskos to his former student, Jean-Luc Picard. That particular artifact was even more prized because it was of the third Kurlan dynasty, made some 12,000 years ago by the Kurlan artisan known only as the Master of Tarquin Hill. (“The Chase” [TNG]). In later episodes, Picard's Kurlan Naiskos can be seen adorning a corner table of his ready room.
~1: [2, #b], 8: [1, #i], 66: [1, #i]@1Kurland, Jake@2(Steven Gregory). Son of an Enterprise -D crew member, and an aspiring Starfleet Academy cadet. Jake scored slightly lower than Wesley Crusher on a test, thus losing to Crusher the opportunity to take the Academy entrance exam at Relva VII. Despondent, Kurland stole a shuttlecraft, and attempted to run away to Beltane IX to sign onto a freighter. Kurland eventually returned to the Enterprise after nearly crashing the shuttlecraft, and Commander Riker put him to work repairing the shuttle as penance. (“Coming of Age” [TNG]).
