Mirok in 2368.
Mirok was a Romulan scientist who was working on a new cloaking device that cloaked by dematerializing. In 2368 Ro Laren and Geordi La Forge, of the USS Enterprise-D were accidently cloaked by this device during a rescue mission aboard a Romulan ship that had become disabled while testing the cloak. Mirok was the science officer of the ship and had taken command after the captain had been killed in an explosion. As he didn't want the Federation to know about the device, he ordered to set up a muon feedback in an engery beam from the Enterprise, so that the Muons would accumulate in the dilithium chamber, bringing the Enterprise to explode when going on warp. Nevertheless he thanked Picard for helping his crew, when his ship was repaired and flew away, convinced the Enterprise would explode soon. Fortunately this was prevented, when Ro and La Forge rematerialized and told Picard of Mirok's plan.(TNG: "The Next Phase")
- Mirok was the first of several Star Trek roles played by Thomas Kopache.
