Genetically enhanced children

Darwin children

The six Darwin children and David

Seven genetically enhanced children lived on the Darwin Genetic Research Station on Gagarin IV in 2365. One of them, David, was beamed aboard the shuttle Sakharov by the USS Enterprise-D for further medical investigations. The other six, all under twelve years old, remained on the station.

When Doctor Katherine Pulaski was infected by David, she beamed on board the station and witnessed the special abilities of the children, including telekinesis and telepathy. (TNG: "Unnatural Selection")

The three female and three male "children" were played by unknown performers who received no credit for their appearance.

Scientists

Five scientists were members of a Federation science team at the Darwin Genetic Research Station. They were involved in a research project that developed aggressive immune systems capable of destroying disease organisms.

However the antibodies were capable of attacking Humans and hyperaccelerating the aging process. They were infected, but cured by a transporter-based technique that was successful in curing them. (TNG: "Unnatural Selection")

All five scientists were played by background performers who received no credit for their appearance. Among them were Robert Bray, Ronnie Merritt, Larry Guthrie, Lydia Nielsen, and an unknown actress. All five costumes were sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
