Hello.
I'm currently reading "Star Trek - Gateways 2 - Chainmail". I can't understand what does "sphinx" refer to in the following context:
"“I didn’t want to broadcast all over the frigate that we’re going back. The boarding party is fitted out and we’re ready to reengage the tomb ship. I’ve got four men, plus me, no Blood, no non-Starfleet.”
Keller glanced up at the tactical post, where Zoa sat picking at her weapons alignment programs. “And no sphinx?”
“No, thanks.” She picked up the recon helmet. “Her IQ and her breast size are the same.”
“I dunno . . . Zoa’s pretty good backup.” At her expression he gave up before starting, and instead surveyed her plump body in the service suit and harness. “You look fetching in that rig.”"
PLZ HELP!
