Distortion fields on Nervala IV prevent transporter use except when the sun affects them every eight years.
   
The Lagana Sector is four months travel away. At least one planet in the system requires terraforming. The starship U.S.S. Gandhi is heading to the system for the terraforming mission.
   
Cloning produces measurable genetic drift (see "Up the Long Ladder").
   
Brain organisation patterns are as unique as fingerprints.
   
Lt. Riker last saw Deanna at the Janaran Falls on Betazed the day before leaving on the U.S.S. Potemkin.
   
Riker earned a promotion due to his courage in the evacuation of the Nervala IV outpost. Because of this, the intended rendez-vous between him and Deanna Troi on Risa six weeks later never happened. They didn't meet again until "Encounter at Farpoint".
   
Riker plays Jazz Trombone and has been trying to perfect his solo in "Nightbird" for 10 years.
   
Riker never cared for his middle name Thomas.
   
Starfleet Officers are allowed to bring family onboard after six months on the U.S.S. Gandhi.
   
Troi and Crusher meet for their Mok'bara classes (see "Birthright").
   
Troi enjoys Valerian root tea.
