Science officer aboard the original Starship Enterprise. Born  in 2230 on planet Vulcan. His mother, Amanda
Grayson, was a human schoolteacher from Earth, and his father, Sarek, was a
diplomat from Vulcan. As a result, he was torn between two, the stern discipline
of Vulcan logic and the emotionalism of his human side. The struggle to
reconcile his two halves would torment him for much of his life. Spock's
Starfleet service number was S179-276SP. Spock was the first Vulcan to enlist in
the Federation Starfleet, and distinguished himself greatly. As of 2267, he had
earned the Vulcanian Scientific Legion of Honor, had been twice decorated by
Starfleet Command, and held an A7 computer expert classification. His blood type
was T-negative. Following the conclusion of Kirk's five year mission, Spock
retired from Starfleet, returning to Vulcan to pursue the kohlinar discipline.
Although he completed the training intended to purge all remaining emotion,
Spock nonetheless failed to achieve kohlinar because his emotions were stirred
by the V-Ger entity in 2271. Spock subsequently remained with Starfleet and was
eventually promoted to Enterprise captain when that ship was assigned as a
training vessel at Starfleet Academy.
