Nick was reunited with Lily in early 2384, and the reunion was enough to coax him out of his lab every so often. Following his part in the thwarting of the Angel One attempted takeover, Nick was promoted to lieutenant commander. And when Lily announced her transfer to the ''Triumphant'' as executive officer, she convinced Nick to come along as that ship's chief of systems operations. Without access to his lab, Nick couldn't help the ''Kestrel'' crew, but with his initial contact they were working on returning themselves to real space.

Without access to his lab, Nick couldn't help the ''Kestrel'' crew, but with his initial contact they were working on returning themselves to real space.


Following the decommissioning of the ''Triumphant'', Nick was assigned to Deep Space 17 as a full-on science research officer. In the short time there, he made remarkable leaps forward in subspace warp bubble theory, and his work allowed him at last to free the ''Kestrel''. This achievement not only shut up his former detractors, it also landed him prestigious awards and invitations to appointments, including the one that he finally accepted, as the head of the Subspace Theory Department aboard the prestigious Jupiter Station. In that capacity, Nick furthered his work and when he announced a new form of propulsion, the siphon drive, he was recognized with several more awards and a Starfleet promotion. However, in early 2386 when he submitted his research proposal for that year, it was flatly turned down by Starfleet - they wanted him to work within different research objectives and become more of a staff administrator - he'd been promoted upstairs. He tried twice more to submit proposals that both sides could find amicable, but always he was rejected. Finally, in March, he tendered his resignation, and was eagerly snapped up by the Daystrom Institute, where he's been ever since.
