Dune was First Technician of Space Station Nerva (a.k.a. "the Ark") who was eaten by and absorbed into the Wirrn.

Profile

He had knowledge of high energy physics and quantum mechanics. Dune was to have been one of the first Humans revived, but instead the Wirrn Queen laid her eggs inside his body while still in cryogenic suspension. The Queen's larvae consumed both his body and his intellect, absorbing all of his knowledge, which enabled them to operate and sabotage systems aboard the Ark.

When his body was discovered to be missing by Vira, commander Noah blamed the Doctor and his party. As the alien presence inside Noah's mind grew stronger, the commander claimed that he was Dune. He later revealed that he had been given all Dune's knowledge. (DW: The Ark in Space)

Behind the Scenes

An extra named Brian Jacobs played Dune, very briefly, in the first few seconds of Part 1 of The Ark in Space.
