In DS9, there were two starships-the Federation U.S.S. Sitak and the Klingon I.K.C. Koraga. Can you name the first episode that introduced us to these two names? And what is the significance of these two names?

All I can find is that there was an Admiral Sitak in "Favor the Bold"...

The Sitak was a Miranda-class starship escorting the Defiant during the big battle in "Sacrifice of Angels." It was destroyed.
The Koraga was a K'vort-class battlecruiser that was temporarily commanded by Worf in "Penumbra." It was attacked by the Dominion near the Badlands and destroyed.

Here's the answer:
Sitak and Koraga are mentioned by Kirk in "The Ultimate Computer". They were both scientists.

Huh! Never knew that...

There's still a possibility that the ship was actually the Seatac, named after the Seattle-Tacoma airport in the city of Seatac, which is also named after the airport. Posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim (Member # 646) on :
Ummm...
And that is a possibility how?
Posted by Siegfried (Member # 29) on :
Well, the possibility is that Sitak is pronounced "see-tack" and the city/airport of Seatac is pronouned "see-tack." As far as I know, the Holders of the Sacred Text of Ship Names hasn't answered whether or not the name is Seatac or Sitak. The closed captioning called it the Sitak, however. Personally, I acknowledge that it could be either one, but I like to think that it is Sitak for the simple reason that it kinda looks Vulcan and Starfleet hasn't had all that many starships with non-human names.

I don't actually think the ship was named Seatac, by the way.
