Zandra Taitt

Zandra Taitt graduated Starfleet Academy in 2369.

She wrote her senior thesis on Solar Dynamics.

She won a prestigious posting as a Science officer to the Enterprise.

Six week into her commission during an encounter with a faction of non-collective borg and Lore, Taitt maned the Tactical station under the command of Commander Beverly Crusher. She hesitantly held her post, and under orders established a frequency shift firing pattern on a borg ship.

When releaved of her position at tactical Commander Crusher asked that she stay on the bridge at the science station.

When Commander Crusher took the Enterprise, protected by metaphasic shielding in to a local star, it was Taitts observations and expertise in Solar Dynamics that allowed her to use ships phasers to trigger a solar flair destroying the borg vessel. A move Commander Crusher christened the "Taitt Maneuver".
