Science Officer 0718 is the bald, cybernetically enhanced officer who works a bridge station on the USS Enterprise in the film Star Trek Into Darkness.
0718 appears in Star Trek Into Darkness, set in 2259, and is played by Joseph Gatt. He is striking to look at, with pale eyes, a level voice and a device set into the back of his skull that seems to link him to the ship's computer.
He serves on the bridge through the pursuit of John Harrison and the encounter with Admiral Marcus's USS Vengeance, giving sensor readings and status reports in a clipped, machine-like manner.
The film does not explain what he is, and the name comes from the credits. He has been taken for an augmented human or some kind of synthetic crewman.
