Sanderson (helmsman)

See Sanderson for other articles with titles that contain, either by relationship or by coincidence, this character's surname.

Sanderson was a 23rd century Human man who served in Starfleet. In the late-2280s, he was assigned to the USS Excelsior as a helmsman under the command of Vice-Admiral James T. Kirk.

Biography[]

Sanderson manned the helm during the Excelsior's approach to Tally in the Cryblon system in the year 2285. He listened as Nyota Uhura described her experiences there in 2264. (TOS comic: "Uhura's Story")

Despite the closeup on Sanderson's rank insignia, his rank was uncertain. In this story Lieutenant Saavik and Commander Hikaru Sulu were depicted wearing the same insignia. As a result, Sanderson might be a lieutenant commander, but it was possible he could have been a lieutenant or a commander.
