Noah Lessing in 2375

Noah Lessing was a Human Starfleet officer who was stationed on board the USS Equinox when it was pulled into the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker.

He had a sister, whom he took to McKinley Park when they were children. They watched a family of ground squirrels who lived near a patch of poison ivy. When he was ten, he walked through the poison ivy and swelled up like a Regellian blood worm.

Lessing survived the first few years of the vessel's voyage through the quadrant, until the USS Voyager caught up with the Equinox.

During the conflict between the two Starfleet ships, Captain Kathryn Janeway captured Lessing, who assisted Janeway in finding the Ankari. He subsequently joined the Voyager crew, but was stripped of his rank. (VOY: "Equinox", "Equinox, Part II")

The fate of the character or his life on Voyager after the events of "Equinox, Part II" were never portrayed on screen, however the non-canon Pocket VOY novel "Homecoming" by Christie Golden mentions that Lessing returned to the Alpha Quadrant along with the rest of Voyager's crew.

Noah Lessing was played by Rick Worthy.
