Like Kebron, Mark McHenry first appeared in the Starfleet Academy novels, where he was depicted as having many odd behaviors. As the conn officer on the Excalibur, he demonstrated an uncanny ability to find his position in space without the aid of navigational instruments. It was later discovered that these abilities were due to his parentage: his great-grandfather was the Greek god Apollo. Since discovering the source of his abilities (which have expanded significantly from what they first appeared), McHenry has left his post on the Excalibur.

Famous quotes containing the word mark:
“The confirmation of Clarence Thomas, one of the most conservative voices to be added to the [Supreme] Court in recent memory, carries a sobering message for the African- American community.... As he begins to make his mark upon the lives of African Americans, we must acknowledge that his successful nomination is due in no small measure to the support he received from black Americans.”
—Kimberly Crenshaw (b. 1959)
