Barstow
For the Earth city, please see Barstow, California.
Commodore Barstow was a male Human Starfleet command division flag officer who lived during the mid-23rd century.
In 2267, Barstow communicated with Captain James T. Kirk aboard the USS Enterprise, to confer about the galaxy-wide magnetic effect which had been centered on an uncharted iron-silica planet which the Enterprise had been investigating. Barstow and Kirk agreed that the effect might signal a threat of invasion, and Barstow informed Kirk that he had ordered the withdrawal of all Starfleet units and personnel within one hundred parsecs of the planet, while simultaneously ordering Kirk to continue their investigation.
