Background
In the Star Trek universe, Lt. Commander Data was a Soong-type android, created by Dr. Noonien Soong, who served as Ops Manager on the U.S.S. Enterprise-D and U.S.S. Enterprise-E. He was played by Brent Spiner.
Data was the last android created by Dr. Noonien Soong, and the first to be discovered by Starfleet and humanity as a whole. Starfleet officers found him laying inside a cave while investigating the devastation of Omicron Theta caused by the Chrystalline Entity. Shortly after being activated, he decided to apply for Starfleet Academy in order to give something back for them activating him. Despite protests from a Commander Bruce Maddox, who preached that Data was not sentient, he was admitted and later graduated.
He spent several years as an Ensign and in the lower Lieutenant grades on two separate Starfleet vessels before finally joining the U.S.S. Enterprise-D as a Lieutenant Commander, Ops Manager, and Second Officer. It is on the Enterprise that he begins developing human behaviors and mannerisms, after emulating several of the crew. During his second year, Cmdr. Bruce Maddox once again tries to affirm that Data is not sentient, Captain Picard argues Data's case in front of a JAG officer and does not succeed at having Data declared legally sentient, but that he is not the property of Starfleet and should have the freedom to discover if he is sentient.
The next year, Data manages to create his own version of a Positronic brain, and eventually uses it to build his own offspring in the form of a young Human woman he names Lal. Despite his best efforts to bring her to sentience, even copying his own pathways to her own, she eventually suffers a cascade failure and goes offline.
A few months later, he encounters his father and they get to know each other for a brief time before his brother Lore kills his father.
