Biography[]
Tanaka was an expert mechanical engineer. In the 2260s, he was employed by Tachyon Micromechanics, Ltd., one of Starfleet's manufacturers of transporters. By 2269 he worked for the firm as an assistant researcher aboard Deep Space Research Facility 39, reporting to chief researcher Sovar and lab administrator Salvatore Santini. His team worked to debug a new, experimental transporter system. (FASA RPG module: The Vanished)
In 2269 (on reference stardate 2/1111), he was 33 when the entire space station crew vanished during a routine communications check-in with the starship USS Enterprise. Investigation later found that an infestation by I'Iglii overloaded the transporter and dematerialized the station's personnel.
