Background

According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia (2nd ed., p. 291), Masada was probably "named for the hilltop fortress where Jews defied Roman legions, eventually committing suicide en masse rather than surrender."

Apocrypha

In several Pocket Books novels, Masada was named Guillermo Masada, and was a Starfleet lieutenant who was also Decker's second officer.

The USS Masada was a hijacked Ptolemy-class Federation tug in Interplay's Star Trek: 25th Anniversary game.
