Sitar was a brilliant Vulcan theoretical scientist, comparable in genius to Albert Einstein, Kazanga, and Dr. Richard Daystrom. (TOS: "The Ultimate Computer")

In 2268, James T. Kirk listed Sitar and these others when explaining to Leonard McCoy that great scientists didn't "produce new and revolutionary theories on a regular schedule". (TOS: "The Ultimate Computer")

This character was only mentioned in dialogue.
From the Star Trek Encyclopedia (4th ed., vol. 2, p. 247), "In the script, the scientist's name is spelled "Sakar", but Kirk's pronunciation sounded more like "Setar", which we used for the name of a shuttlecraft in the remastered version of "Court Martial" (TOS)."
