    You're assuming nothing happened to her between 2286 and 2409...

    Wasn't she imprisoned for treason against the Federation and crimes against the Empire?

    I think that's Valeris you're thinking of.

    Maybe, maybe not. 123 years is a long time to go without being killed, assimilated or going MIA.

    In theory, she could still be alive. I mean Spock was alive well into the latter half of the 24th Century.

    She became a Vulcan Extremist spy and was captured and imprisoned by Vulcan Authorities (see TNG: "Gambit Part II") ;)

    that wasn't saavik; MA says nothing about her appearing in gambit​​

    That WAS Robin Curtis... but the character she played was T'Paal...

    Which reminds me... she had forehead ridges.... even though she was Vulcan.

    As noted, canonically, we don't know: she simply disappears from canon after Star Trek IV. However, some of Pocket Books' novels state she was an admiral circa the loss of the Enterprise-C. And being a Vulcan, it's easy enough for her to still be alive as of STO.

    Oh, and she was also carrying Spock's child as of Star Trek IV courtesy of the Genesis Planet pon farr (it was supposed to have been implied by an exchange between her and Kirk before she got off the HMS Bounty at Vulcan, but the scene was cut) and eventually married him.

    I'm willing to say that with Saavik being a Vulcan/Romulan (and therefore probably too impulsive for her own good), along with whatever havoc the Genesis Effect played with her biology (especially if she did wind up with Spock's kid from that Pon Farr) means that despite the fact that she could be Admiral T'Nae's contemporary, she most likely didn't make it all the way to 2409.

    Though yeah, some sort of "shout out" to her would be nifty, even if it's a throwaway line in "Path to 2409" or a reference to her works by somebody in a mission somewhere...

    I don't think Genesis did anything to her. Its not like the planet was radiating Metaphasic Radiation.

    Even if it was, Spock was down there for weeks longer and yet he lived for over a century afterward. And he's half-human, not half of a Vulcan subspecies.

    Exactly. Saavik was not down there very long herself. Not only that, the reason Spock was affected was because he was dropped down there shortly after the planet formed, and there was still a LOT of energy. By the time the Grissom got there the energy probably calmed down to the point it couldn't affect complex lifeforms. The bacteria on the casing, on the other hand, was still in supercharged evolution state, hence why we see two different kinds of lifeforms around it at different times. The... ray looking things when the Grissom away team finds it, and the eel things when the Klingons get there.
