Dr. Sarah Brook

 is a character in The Turing Test

Summary
Sarah Brook's parents are both scientists. In her teenage years she was sent to an English public boarding school. Brook is one the most eminent exobiologists of the 23rd century, for her formative work on the Mars discovery project. She was specially requested to be part of the Europa ground team. Though only 28 years old Sarah has touched the surface of two planetoids, and spent more time on alien soil than any member of mankind. (Except the Mars team.)

Sarah Brook gave birth to a child while on Europa's surface. Sarah confided in Mikhail Tokarev about the pregnancy. He later helped her give birth. The child was unable to form correctly in Europa's gravity and died in childbirth. Chris MacLean was the father.

In Sarah's quarters, there is a textbook open to a page on telomeres, the "caps" on the ends of DNA which are responsible for biological aging. Beside it is a rosary, a string of beads used in Catholicism to count prayers. On her desk there is a photo of a dog and a datapad with a letter to TOM. Mounted above her desk is a shovel. It is evident that Sarah is aware of the affects of the neural implants as discovered by Mikhail Tokarev. There is a bottle of Riluzole in her room.

Trivia

 * Minos Brook's grave can be found in This is a Lock (Optional Puzzle 1). This is presumably Sarah's child.
