Notes
  • Tasha Yar left Turkana IV when she was 15. Ishara chose to stay and she joined the Coalition, who is at war with the Alliance.
  • Tasha Yar died in the first season episode "Skin of Evil".
  • The U.S.S. Potemkin (NCC-18253, Excelsior-class) was the last starship to visit Turkana IV in 2361. Riker previously served on the Potemkin (presumably after contact with Turkana IV).
