Commander Hansen in the ruins of his outpost
Commander Hansen was a 23rd century Starfleet officer, the commander of Neutral Zone Outpost 4.
In 2265 he was killed, along with his entire staff, when a Romulan starship, a bird of prey outfitted with a new cloaking device made attacks across the Romulan Neutral Zone border. He was on an open communications channel with James T. Kirk, the captain of a defending starship, the Enterprise, when the station was destroyed. The highly reinforced cast rhodinium plating protecting his station was no match for the Romulan's new plasma weapons. (TOS:"Balance of Terror").
- Commander Hansen was played by Garry Walberg. His uniform varied from the crew of Enterprise, it featured a circular assignment patch (denoting he served at an outpost) rather than the familiar Enterprise arrowhead. The uniform was made of a shinier fabric, and the color was dull, closer to beige than the mustard yellow velour used for the ship's costume. This costume would appear again (patch and all), on another outpost attack victim, Lieutenant Harold of Cestus III in TOS:"Arena."
