Dr Dermot Azura is an astronomer and interstellar navigator who is frequently stationed at the Deep Space Telescope Facility in an outer deck of the Centauri Princess. Azura is a member of the starship's Mission Management Committee, and as with Zakarov, he reports directly to Zed Lincoln. When Joey visits Azura's distant laboratory, he becomes overwhelmed by the important scientific discoveries the team have made concerning the likely origination of Wolf Angels from a double planet circling Alpha Centauri A.
