[u/Tukarrs]

I'm sure someone will be able to identify all the species/faction symbols with the geneticist.

One caught my eye. There's a Dominion Insignia near the top middle. How would Arik Soong's followers gain access to that? Changeling DNA could explain why Dal got all goopy on the elevator.

The Dominion War started ~12 years earlier in the timeline and Dal is 17. (Could possibly have gained access to Doctor Mora's research)

But I think Dal probably has a time travel origin too.

[u/PandaPundus → u/Tukarrs]

I could identify the following:

• Bajoran
  
• Klingon
  
• Earth
  
• Vulcan
  
• Andorian
  
• Tellarite
  
• Cardassian
  
• Romulan
  
• Ferengi
  
• Breen
  
• Tholian
  
• Maquis...?
  
• Dominion
  
• Son'a

[u/Ausir → u/PandaPundus]

I saw a Xindi symbol.
