Details
- Apparently an
officer, given some of her duties
and attendence in high-level staff meetings.
Almost certainly the head of the Service section.
- Last name pronounced as "Ben-ish"
- Works on sensor readings and communications systems.
- Is on watch in
MM and
CC on at least several occasions.
- Seen at least once tapping a pen when nervous or waiting.
- Afraid of doctors when she was a little girl. ("Black Sun")
Missions
- MOLAD: on the
second mission to
Terra Nova.
Blinded (and then killed?), before the image of
Lee Russell "give[s] [Helena] the strength"
to restore (i.e.
reset)
the situation from the disaster that overwhelmed the team.
- "Black Sun": on the lifeboat Eagle.
- "Missing Link": returning from mission to what appears to
be a lifeless world (Zenno); survives a crash with a head injury.
- "The Last Sunset":
Part of mission looking for an emergency evacuation point (?)
on the Moon. The Eagle crashes, leaving her injured and
often unconscious.
- "The Full Circle": Key part of search mission
for a missing ground party on Retha.
She is sitting in co-pilot seat, not herself piloting,
but actively using cameras or sensors.
Once the missing Eagle is found,
she remains in the search Eagle while Alan(?) goes out searching,
but upon opening the Eagle door, is set upon and kidnapped
by at least one caveman.
The caveman (same one?) whom she later wonders is Koenig
seems interested in treating her as his mate,
much to the jealousy of a cavewoman who Sandra
wonders (?) is Helena.
Helena/cavewoman grows jealous,
and eventually seeks to kill Sandra.
Carter finally tracks down Sandra and aims his laser
to kill the cavewoman, but he is shot by a now restored Koenig,
who, together with ????, rescues Sandra.
Piloting
- Not in "The Full Circle":
sits in co-pilot seat but does not seem to touch any flight controls,
but only two or three controls,
almost certainly camera and/or sensor(s),
as her specified role in this case was in searching
for lost exploration party on Retha.
- "The Seance Spectre":
apparently (arguably) active as a co-pilot.
