Sarek
Summary
Sarek ˈsærɛk is a fictional character in the Star Trek media franchise. He is a Vulcan astrophysicist, the Vulcan ambassador to the United Federation of Planets, and father of Spock. The character was originally played by Mark Lenard in the episode "Journey to Babel" in 1967. Lenard later voiced Sarek in the animated series, and appeared in Star Trek films and the series Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Actor Jonathan Simpson played a younger Sarek in a brief scene in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, with voice-over provided by Lenard. Ben Cross portrayed Sarek in the 2009 Star Trek film. James Frain plays Sarek in the television series Star Trek: Discovery.
The character appears in the original Star Trek series, the animated series, five Star Trek films, two episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Discovery and numerous Star Trek novels and comics.
Sarek was born in 2165. He is the son of Skon of Vulcan and the grandson of Solkar (the first Vulcan ambassador to Earth). Sarek was married twice, and had two sons. Prior to his first marriage, he had a relationship with a Vulcan princess which produced Sarek's first son Sybok, a character not developed until the fifth feature film in the late 1980s. Sarek later married Amanda Grayson, a native of the planet Earth. After Amanda's death, Sarek married Perrin, also human, who survived his death. Sarek and Perrin had no children together.
Sarek's second son, Spock, entered Starfleet Academy. Sarek opposed the decision because he wanted Spock to enter the Vulcan Science Academy which he had arranged for years before and the two were estranged for 18 years. Following a mission on the Enterprise where Spock helped save Sarek's life, father and son are reconciled in the episode "Journey to Babel", with Mark Lenard portraying the first appearance of Sarek.
Mark Lenard voiced Sarek in the Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "Yesteryear". In this episode Spock must travel back in time to his childhood, and keep his younger self from dying and being replaced by an Andorian as First Officer of the Enterprise.
