Notes[ | ]
- Taggart was named Qat'Anmek, until the tutorial was remastered. He retains this name at the Captain's Table as one of the many NPCs who can be found there.
- Prior to the tutorial revamp with Season Twenty-six: Stormfall, Taggart's death was the catalyst for the player character assuming command of the Tutorial Starship in all versions of the tutorial. This revamp retcons his death entirely.
- Taggart may be named for the character Commander Peter Quincy Taggart from the Star Trek parody Galaxy Quest.
- Taggart hints that he served on the U.S.S. Enterprise-D or U.S.S. Enterprise-E under Captain Picard, as he seemingly picked up the captain's habit of calling his first officer "Number One".
