Biography[]
When she was a child, Nyota and her parents visited her uncle Raheem off-planet.
As the four of them orbited a a ringed planet in a shuttle, a malfunction developed due to meteorite damage. While Raheem was making a spacewalk to check on it, an explosion severely damaged the shuttle and knocked Uhura's parents unconscious. Raheem, still outside, contacted Uhura and told her to drag her parents into the escape pod at the rear of the shuttle. He talked Uhura through opening the pod's hatch manually and encouraged her when she thought her parents were too heavy to pull into the pod.
As the pod moved away, the shuttle exploded. Uhura called out to her uncle, who was falling toward the planet. He told her that the first explosion blew him away from the shuttle, and that there was no chance to save him. As he fell into the planet's atmosphere, Raheem told Uhura how proud he was of her.
In 2257, Uhura re-experienced the memory through a mind meld with Spock. (TOS - Star Trek comic: "The Voice of a Falling Star")
In 2263, Raheem appeared to Nyota in a waking vision to warn her about a deadly isotope about to be unearthed on New Vulcan. It was an emotional appeal fashioned by the native inhabitants, who also manifested images of Uhura's parents. (TOS comic: "Boldly Go, Issue 9")
