Rodino was a 23rd century Human man. He served in Starfleet as a computer technician aboard the Federation starship USS Enterprise under Captain James T. Kirk in the 2260s.
History[]
In 2269, Rodino was in charge of the main computer room when the USS Enterprise became trapped in the Delta Triangle along with the IKS Klothos. Klingon Lieutenant Kali hid a small bomb in the room during a party, but psionic Elysian councillor Magen sensed its activation. From the bridge, James T. Kirk asked Rodino to remove access plates for the auxiliary casement to auxiliary power cables. When he arrived, Montgomery Scott shoved Rodino aside in a desperate search for the bomb.
