( TNG: " The Enemy")Īs a Soong-type android, Data was incapable of alcohol intoxication, yet components in his processing systems were susceptible to disruption by polywater intoxication. For instance, during the Enterprise's mission to Galorndon Core in 2366, Commander Riker noted that had Data been with the away team, the crew would have been "unscrambling his circuits for a week". ( TNG: " Unnatural Selection", " The Vengeance Factor", " Hero Worship", " Clues", " Disaster", " The Game" Star Trek: First Contact) However, he was apparently more vulnerable than either Humans or Klingons to atmospheric conditions that involved the presence of high concentrations of ions. ( TNG: " The Neutral Zone", " The Ensigns of Command", " The Chase", " The Best of Both Worlds, Part II", " Emergence" Star Trek: First Contact) These superhuman capabilities made him an important asset to the Enterprise-D, and the fact that he was either unaffected by or highly resistant to conditions such as disease, radiation, oxygen deprivation, mind control, and chemical imbalance was crucial to the survival of the ship on numerous occasions. His strength was such that he was capable of casually holding a 1950's automobile at bay against the full force of its engine with a single hand. His physical and mental capabilities were far superior to that of virtually any organic or cybernetic humanoid, including Klingons, Humans, and even Borg drones. ( TNG: " Code of Honor", " The Bonding", " Brothers", " Phantasms", " Thine Own Self" Star Trek Generations) ( TNG: " The Quality of Life") Data's construction also included teeth, an artificial tongue and tear ducts. His computational speed became virtually instantaneous after this modification. ( TNG: " The Measure Of A Man") However, he later augmented his computational speed by converting his interlink sequencer to an asynchronous mode of operation, removing the performance constraint created by virtue of having space between his positronic links. ( Star Trek: Insurrection) Data was built with an ultimate storage capacity of eight hundred quadrillion bits ( 100 petabytes) and a total linear computational speed rated at sixty trillion operations per second. ( TNG: " The Chase") His legs were exactly 87.2 centimeters in length. ( TNG: " The Arsenal of Freedom") His skull was composed of cortenide and duranium. For instance, Data once leaped into a deep underground cave and was able to safely fall down 11.75 meters to the bottom without damaging himself. ( TNG: " Inheritance") Data's upper spinal support was a polyalloy designed to withstand extreme stress. ( TNG: " The Most Toys") All told, his mass was approximately one hundred kilograms. "Here we are still doing it - together, which has just been a blast.Data was composed of 24.6 kilograms of tripolymer composites, 11.8 kilograms of molybdenum- cobalt alloys and 1.3 kilograms of bioplast sheeting. De Lancie is so focused and serious about the work, which makes it fun because there is no struggle to find common ground with someone of his caliber." "It is really rewarding for all of us," he said of his upcoming season three cast reunion. That's infectious, the cast and crew feel it. "He knows what he's doing, and he brings so much joy to the set. "Jonathan is a fantastic director, and everyone loves working with him," Spiner explained.

Jonathan Frakes, who's more active behind the camera than in front these days, also reprised his role as Cmdr/Capt. Season two saw fan favorites Q ( John de Lancie) and Guinan ( Whoopi Goldberg) return. Obviously, this could change with the remaining TNG cast reuniting for the third and final season. The writers knew early on where this season was going," he said. Spiner noted his contract for season two stipulated he wouldn't play Data, who was given a proper send-off in the season one finale.

Cmdr Data lacks emotion, but strives to be more human. Data is the light side." The origin of Lore stems back to the first season TNG episode "Datalore" as the malevolent and psychopathic twin, who was twisted by the emotion chip given by his creator whereas the Starfleet officer Lt. There is a light side to the family with Noonian. And I think it is his DNA that made its way to the dark side of the Soong family, all the way to Lore. "Adam is in a lot of denial about who he is, which is a classic narcissist. "He is much more complex than he would lead us to believe," Spiner said.
