Adam (Biblical)
From Trekipedia
A biblical figure, Adam was the first Human man created by God, who was tasked with his wife, Eve, to populate the Earth with their offspring. When Captain Christopher Pike was captured by the Talosians, fellow captive Vina compared their situation to Adam and Eve.[1] Tempted to tasted the forbidden fruit of knowledge, Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden to survive in a harsh world.[2] The connection to the name of a counter-culture rebel, Adam, and his death on a planet called Eden was noted by U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 first officer Spock,[3] who later kept a painting of the Biblical story, "The Expulsion from Paradise," in his quarters aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A as "a reminder … that all things end."[4]
