Crosby had second thoughts about leaving "
Star Trek: The Next Generation", and approached the "
The Next Generation" production team with the idea of reprising her role of Tasha Yar.
This came to be in season three's "
Yesterday's Enterprise", in which an alternate universe is created after the USS Enterprise-C, the predecessor to
The Next Generation's USS Enterprise-D, comes forward 22 years in time. Yar joined the Enterprise-C before it returned to its own time.
