'''Gorkon''' is a planet known to [[Troy (1980)|Troy]].
'''Gorkon''' is a planet known to [[Troy (1980)|Troy]].


When watching the 1955 CE theatrical film ''[[This Island Earth]]'' on 30 October 1980 in a California theater on [[Earth (1980)|Earth]] with fellow [[Warrior]] [[Dillon]] and the [[Super Scouts]], Troy recalls that he "hasn't seen anything like [the mutant alien on the screen] since the planet Gorkon." This view is echoed by [[Wellington]], who mentions that the bug-eyed alien in the Earth movie looks like the Gorkons {{OS|The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I}}.

* Gorkon is the [[MemoryAlpha:Gorkon|name]] of the [[MemoryAlpha:Klingon|Klingon]] Chancellor played by [[MemoryAlpha:David Warner|David Warner]] in ''[[MemoryAlpha:Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country|Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country]]''.

* As [[Troy (1980)|Troy]] was [[Boxey (TOS)|a young child]] during the [[Battle of Cimtar|Fall of and Exodus from the Twelve Colonies]] and more likely than not set foot away from the Colonies before then, it can be assumed that Gorkon was a planet visited by the [[Galactican Fleet]] en route to [[Earth (1980)|Earth]]. This is fully supported by [[Wellington]]'s quip while watching the movie.
