D'Amato faces the beauty which is projected to kill him

Lieutenant D'Amato, a Human male, was the senior geologist aboard the USS Enterprise serving under Captain James T. Kirk.

In 2268, D'Amato was among the landing party that investigated an ancient Kalandan outpost planet, giving D'Amato the opportunity to explore a planet that was only a couple thousand years old. With this opportunity, D'Amato could possibly make discoveries worthy enough to even startle the Fifth Interstellar Geophysical Conference. Unfortunately his report would never be delivered, as D'Amato was soon killed by a projection of the planet's defense system. (TOS: "That Which Survives")

Lieutenant D'Amato was played by actor Arthur Batanides.
