(Played by Alan Ruck)
In 2293, Captain Harriman hosted a media event aboard his ship, the U.S.S. Enterprise-B, during its ceremonial maiden voyage around the Sol system. As the first ship in modern history to be named "Enterprise" without James T. Kirk in command, his honored guests for its launch were original Enterprise veterans and legends Montgomery Scott, Pavel Chekov, and Captain Kirk himself. Harriman even admitted to Kirk that he studied the famous captain's career in grade school. During an unexpected emergency rescue mission against an energy anomaly never before seen, however, Harriman froze when extreme options had to be developed, and then gave command to the "retired" Kirk to save the day—which he did, but at the apparent cost of his own life.
