The observer

"The Observer"was a higher life form engaged in studying the "limited beings" that populated the United Federation of Planets. As part of these studies, the observer viewed a December 2380 edition of Illuminating the City of Light.

As a higher life form, the observer created his own taxonomy for beings and planets in the Federation. Some examples of that taxonomy are as follows:

Genders:
 * gender-two - shen
 * gender-five - female
 * gender-seven - male

Planets:
 * AC1 - Andor
 * AQ1 - Vulcan
 * AV9 - Krios
 * BT5 - Earth
 * DO3 - Delta
