Hardaker was the captain of the starship Titanic.
Profile
He was responsible for the sabotage of the starship Titanic. He was ordered by Max Capricorn to magnetize the hull of the vessel to attract an incoming asteroid shower and to to keep the shields off so that the asteroids would hit the Titanic. He participated in the plan because he was dying of an unindentified illness which left him with six months to live. He was promised that his family would receive a great deal of money.
When Midshipman Alonzo Frame tried to reactive the shields, Hardaker shot him with a service pistol. Before doing so, he lamented that he had been promised a crew of old men who have had their time, not boys. However Frame survived the gunshot wound, and Hardaker was killed as soon as the ship was hit. (DW: Voyage of the Damned)
