He allowed the crew of the  to assist in the experiment in 2367. When the experiments failed, Timicin briefly hesitated to return for his Resolution ceremony since there was more work to do, asking Captain Jean-Luc Picard for asylum. He attempted to convince B'Tardat, but B'Tardat said others will continue his work. Science Minister B'Tardat ordered Timicin to return to the planet and threatened to attack the Enterprise-D.
