Commander Seth Shostak was a Starfleet officer in the 24th century.

In 2364, this individual was the commander of Terrestrial Defense Division. He received an order about STFL Cargo Manifest 045-349374 from Captain Jonas Grumby of the USS Minnow. The cargo was sensor drones, which were delivered to Starbase 74. There was concern that Commander Quinteros would be unable to acknowledge readiness for deploying sensor drones. In that case, the captain suggested to the commander that a secondary readiness scenario should be prepared in the event that sensor drones would have to be deployed prior to full operation of the data transmission network. The commander was then asked to advise the captain of their decision.

Later that year, this order was read by Lieutenant Commander Data during an investigation into an alleged conspiracy in the highest levels of Starfleet Command. (TNG: "Conspiracy", okudagram)
