Dr. Tarak Ital M.D., was a Pakistani astronaut, was a member of the crew of Bowie Base One.
Born in Karachi in 2026, he was originally interested in athletics and went on to represent Pakistan in the 2044 Olympics in Havana, Cuba. Despite winning a gold medal, he quit athletics and went in to medicine instead, first studying locally and then moving to Harvard University; many Pakistanis believed he was turning his back on the country. He began focusing on conditions that affected the human body in space. While at the Johnson Space Centre, he befriended Yuri Kerenski and recommended him as base nurse for Bowie Base One.
In 2059, he was suprised when the Doctor came to the base as there was no other way of getting there. He later assisted the Doctor and Adelaide Brooke in heading to the base's bio-dome after there was some unknown attack (the Flood). He searched on his own for crew member Andy Stone, only to be infected himself. He joined Andy in spreading the infection into the base's control hub.
He was killed when Adelaide set the base to self destruct. (DW: The Waters of Mars)
