PLACE OF BIRTH:2121, Florida, North America, Earth
Trip Tucker — his father and grandfather were both Charles, so "Trip" is short for "triple" — has been in Starfleet for 12 years, and has known Archer for eight. The two officers met back when Archer was a commander involved with the NX-Test Program and Trip was a lieutenant on Captain Jefferies' engineering team. Trip and Archer teamed up with Commander A.G. Robinson to convince Starfleet and its Vulcan advisors that the NX program was worth keeping on track. Though they resorted to unorthodox means, launching an NX vessel without permission, they were ultimately successful. From then on, the duo shared a strong bond.As he has proved time and time again, Trip is an ace engineer, and claims that he can't sleep without the warp engines online.
