American actor who played Henry Archer, the warp engineer and father of Jonathan Archer, in flashbacks in the Star Trek: Enterprise pilot Broken Bow, after a guest role in Voyager.
Mark Moses is an American film and television actor with two Star Trek roles. In the Voyager episode Riddles he played Naroq, the Kesat investigator who helps the crew track the cloaked aliens responsible for attacking Tuvok.
In Broken Bow, the feature-length opening of Star Trek: Enterprise, he plays Henry Archer in a series of flashbacks. Henry is shown painting a model starship with his young son and explaining why the Vulcans have held back humanity's warp programme.
Henry Archer designed the warp five engine but did not live to see it fly, and those brief scenes establish the resentment of Vulcan caution, and the sense of inheritance, that drive his son through the early seasons.
