Stron was a Vulcan warp field specialist during Earth's 20th century.
In October 1957, Stron's vessel crash landed on Earth in Carbon Creek, Pennsylvania, a small mining town in the United States of America. While there, he worked as a plumber to earn money. Often when there were no Humans around, he would use Vulcan technology to repair the piping more easily.
After several months, Stron had grown annoyed with Humans, including one boy who continually commented that his hairstyle looked similar to that of Moe, one of The Three Stooges. He and crewmate T'Mir were finally rescued by another Vulcan ship, the D'Vahl, soon after.
Even though he claimed to be annoyed with Humans and had already quit his job in preparation for their rescue, T'Mir questioned why he was still repairing a vacuum cleaner. Stron explained that he promised Mrs. Garrett that he would repair it for her, showing that he had some pride in keeping his word to a Human.
Crewmate Mestral had decided to stay on Earth to study Humanity, and when T'Mir claimed he had died in the crash alongside their captain to the D'Vahl's Captain Tellus, Stron went along with it. If he happened to write any reports alongside T'Mir's on the incident that were saved in the Vulcan archives, he never revealed Mestral's true fate. (ENT: "Carbon Creek")
Stron was played by actor Michael Krawic.
His name comes from the script.
In the final draft script of "Carbon Creek", Stron was described as older than crewmate Mestral.
