Shaun Geoffrey Christopher

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

Shaun Geoffrey Christopher was a human who lived on Earth during the 20th and 21st centuries. He was the son of United States Air Force officer Captain John Christopher.

In the 1990s, Christopher was selected to pilot the top secret DY-100 prototype, working with people such as Dr. Mark Nichols, Jackson Roykirk, and Shannon O'Donnell. However, the DY-100 prototype was launched before Christopher had an opportunity to pilot the ship. Afterwards, Christopher tried to comfort O'Donnell when she was dismissed from her position. (TOS novel: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2)

On September 11, 2001 Christopher was prevented from boarding a commercial flight by Gary Seven. This turned out to be very fortunate for Christopher when the flight he was going to board was hijacked and used in the September 11th terrorist attacks. (ST short story: "Assignment: One")

Later, in the 21st century, Christopher would become famous for commanding the first manned mission to Saturn. This would be the reason that Commander Spock decided that John Christopher would have to be returned to Earth after the USS Enterprise had traveled back in time and rescued him from his aircraft. (TOS episode: "Tomorrow is Yesterday")
