"Then ask Captain Nero, what gives him the right to attack a Federation vessel?"

Richard Robau was a Starfleet officer, and captain of the USS Kelvin in 2233. His first officer was George Kirk, father of James T. Kirk.

Alternate reality

RobauTerminated — Robau's life signs terminated

In the alternate reality created by Nero's temporal incursion in 2233, the Kelvin came under attack by the Romulan mining vessel Narada, immediately upon the Narada's emergence from a black hole. After the Narada inflicted heavy damage on the Kelvin, Ayel, Nero's second-in-command, ordered Robau to board a shuttlecraft and travel to the Narada for negotiations. Realizing that he had no choice but to comply, Robau placed Kirk in command, ordering him to evacuate the crew if he did not report in fifteen minutes.

On the Narada, Robau was questioned by Ayel as to his familiarity with Ambassador Spock and the vessel Spock had been piloting. When Robau professed his unfamiliarity with Spock, Ayel demanded to know the current stardate. Upon learning that they had inadvertently become stranded 154 years in the past, Nero became infuriated, violently killed Robau with a bladed weapon in his possession, and immediately resumed the attack on the Kelvin. (Star Trek)

-==Alternate reality==
-In an [[alternate reality]] created through a [[temporal incursion]] by the the ''[[Narada]]'', a [[Romulan]] [[mining vessel]] from the year [[2387]], the ''Kelvin'' encountered a massive disturbance near the [[Klingon border]], a [[black hole]] described as a "lightning storm in space."  The ''Narada'' emerged from the black hole and immediately opened fire on the [[Federation]] [[starship]]. After inflicting heavy damage on the ''Kelvin'', the ''Narada''{{'}}s [[captain]], [[Nero]], requested that Robau take a [[shuttlecraft]] to their ship. Before departing, Robau handed command to {{alt|George Kirk}}, and ordered him to begin an evacuation of the crew using all remaining shuttles, and to set the ''Kelvin'' on a collision course with the ''Narada'' via the [[autopilot]].
+== Alternate reality ==
-Upon arrival on the ''Narada'', Robau was brought before Nero and questioned by Nero's first officer, [[Ayel]], regarding the location of [[Ambassador]] [[Spock]] and his vessel, the ''[[Jellyfish (ship)|Jellyfish]]''. As Robau had no knowledge of either, Ayel asked him for the current [[stardate]], and Robau informed him that it was stardate "2233-zero-four." Nero, angered by the realization that the ''Narada'' had traveled 154 years into the past, killed Robau with the ''[[teral'n]]'' weapon in his possession. The termination of Robau's [[life sign]]s registered aboard the ''Kelvin'', restarting the battle between the two vessels. ({{film|11}})
