Science Officer Quotes

“The officer serving in the lab, when not assigned to an away team, was to make sure the information routed from the bridge was properly categorized and cataloged, and reported to Starfleet Command. This was one of the pillars of our civilization: ships all over the quadrant were taking in information and sending it to Starfleet Command, where it became part of the collective knowledge of the Federation.”
― David A. Goodman, The Autobiography of Jean-Luc Picard
