Dr. Ramsey

Dr. Ramsey was a human scientist and archeologist active within the United Federation of Planets in the mid-24th century. As a research fellow at the Vulcan Science Academy he studied the Nevis Stone, an artifact discovered on Thelon III.

In 2339, Ramsey discovered a connection between the Nevis Stone, a civilization on Thelon III (as well as civilizations on several other planets), and an ancient civilization that once inhabited the planet Athrak V. The exact nature of his discovery was unknown to most at the time, though he did share the discovery with his colleague Dr. Richard Galen, at the time an advisor to the Federation Science Council. The discovery prompted Galen to lobby the Federation Council to secure permission from the Klingon Empire to conduct an expedition to Athrak V. The Council eventually secured the permissions, though they insisted that Galen lead the expedition and as a result, Ramsey was not present himself.
