According to the novelization of TVH by Vonda N. McIntyre, the Saratoga's science officer was a Deltan called Chitirih-Ra-Dreii. Dillard probably mistook the Deltan science officer for the Efrosian helmsman and thought that the Federation president was also Deltan. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
