Quark (Star Trek) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Quark, son of Keldar and Ishka, is a fictional character in the television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, played by Armin Shimerman. Quark originally came to the station while it was named Terok Nor during the Cardassian occupation of Bajor. Quark repeatedly clashed with FCA (Ferengi Commerce Authority) liquidator Brunt, who believed that Quark was detrimental to Ferengi society and beliefs. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Quark_(Star_Trek)   (1074 words)

Ferengi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In internal Star Trek chronology, however, the earliest known reference to the race occurs in the 2002 Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Dear Doctor", when, in 2151, a Valakian astronaut that encounters the crew of the Enterprise (NX-01) mentions the Ferengi in passing, but the Enterprise crew do not recognize the name. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was the series that focused the most on the Ferengi, as it was the first to feature a Ferengi, Quark (played by Armin Shimerman), as a regular cast member, as well as Ferengi as recurring cast members, most notably Quark's brother Rom (Max Grodenchik) and Rom's son Nog (Aron Eisenberg). In the fictional Star Trek universe, this is the unified alliance of Ferengi inhabited and controlled worlds located North-East of the Federation on the galactic map. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ferengi   (3150 words)

ORBSEARCH.COM | encyclopedia of knowledge In particle physics, the quarks are one of the two families of particles thought to be elemental and indivisible (the other being the leptons). Quarks are generally believed to never exist alone but only in groups of two or three (and, more recently, five); all searches for free quarks since 1977 have yielded negative results. This interchange of color charge is thought to result in the strong nuclear force holding quarks together in mesons and baryons; a "secondary" effect of this strong nuclear force is to hold the protons and neutrons together in the atomic nucleus. www.orbsearch.com /qu/Quark.php   (747 words)

Quark - Memory Alpha Quark was a Ferengi, the eldest son of Keldar and Ishka and older brother to Rom. Quark was infatuated with Jadzia Dax, but she thought of him as a friend, and did not return his romantic feelings. Quark's relationship with Odo is a clear homage to the classic 1942 film Casablanca, with Quark in Humphrey Bogart's role of Rick Blaine and Odo as Claude Rains' Captain Louis Renault. memory-alpha.org /en/wiki/Quark   (3068 words)

STARTREK.COM : Biography Quark knows at least the worst of human history, and while he speaks out against superior Terran attitudes, he can be as racist as anyone. Quark, the Ferengi barkeeper, is a self-important con artist who's nowhere near as clever as he thinks he is. His bar is a center for scams and illegal dealings. Quark was a co-indicted in 2362 by the Romulans as the middleman with alien thief Fallit Kot for hijacking a Romulan ale shipment, but testified against Kot and got off — barely escaping with his life eight years later here at DS9 when Kot was released. www.startrek.com /startrek/view/series/DS9/character/1112445.html   (1616 words)

Quark - Non-canon Star Trek Wiki Quark was a Ferengi male and the longtime owner and bartender of Quark's Bar, Grill, Embassy, Gaming House, and Holosuite Arcade, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Quark Enterprises, Inc., aboard the space station known as Terok Nor and, later, Starbase Deep Space 9. Quark also served a brief term as Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance when it was believed that Grand Nagus Zek had died; he was removed from office and Zek restored when it was revealed that this was a ruse by Zek to test his son. In 2376, after the Dominion War, Quark represented the Orion Syndicate in negotiations with the race claiming to be the ancient Iconians during the Gateways crisis. startrek.wikia.com /wiki/Quark   (819 words)

quark (physics) - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about quark (physics) The existence of the top quark was confirmed by two teams of physicists at Fermilab in March 1995. It is unstable and unlikely to last more than a millionth of a billionth of a billionth of a second, but experiments at Fermilab suggest it is at least as massive as a silver atom, and 20,000 times heavier than an up quark.

Quark and his brother Rom, in awe and fear, quickly try to show Zek the respect he deserves, and set him up with five of Quark's favorite holosuite fantasies. www.newhorizonsdesign.com /startrek/episodeguide.asp?Title=The+Nagus   (880 words)

Star Trek: The Experience To me, the most interesting aspect of the Star Trek universe is the infinite diversity of life forms the crew encountered in their travels. I think the Borg are more terrifying because what shred of humanity remains in their cybernetic bodies is subjugated by a sterile unfeeling intelligence that combines the insensitivity of a machine with the unstoppable purpose of an insect. Star Trek: The Next Generation also introduced us to the Nausicans, an aggressive culture that you definitely don't want to encounter in a bar (they stabbed young Ensign Picard right through the heart!). darkwing.uoregon.edu /~mharrsch/stexperience.html   (1001 words)

TrekWeb.com - Chat Transcript: Actor Armin Shimerman Talks 'Quark', DS9, INSURRECTION, and His New Novel I went on to promote my non Star Trek novel ideas to Pocket Books and they accepted them, including the present novel which is more about a social/political policy that is in effect now by the current Presidential administration. Steve Krutzler: luckybucky asks: I thought Quark was always one of the characters that helped secure DS9 from being an experimental spin-off to becoming "home base" in the world of Star Trek for a lot of fans. Quark was never heroic (or rarely), believe it or not he was much like you and me - who only rise to the nobel when we are driven to it. trekweb.com /articles/2003/12/17/3fe05b13995f2.shtml   (2915 words)

He said that issue will be soon be addressed in an episode to be aired, which he finished filming a month ago.

The Economics of Star Trek Quark once ran afoul of this monopoly when he wanted to broadcast advertisements for his bar, and had no alternative but to break into DS9's communications system. Of course, some of Star Trek's defenders claim that the unbelievable uniformity of Federation technology is not necessarily proof of monopoly, but these people probably don't think Microsoft is monopolistic either.
