  • Trivia This episode is unusual in that it is told from the viewpoint of a guest character rather than one of the Voyager crew (who don't even appear until well into the second act).
  • Goofs It is stated that there are 148 lifeforms on board Voyager (plus the Doctor); however, Janeway states in The 37's (1995) that there are 152 people on board, and 11 members of the crew have died since. Even allowing for the birth of Naomi Wildman, that leaves half a dozen crew members who seem to have come back to life.

Gegen : [examining a human skull] Did your eyes see the planet of our origin, the true home of our race? Was it... beautiful? Was it covered by oceans, by sand? Were there nine moons above your head? Were there none?
