Computer mouse

A computer mouse was a manual input device on computers of the 20th and 21st centuries. The device was known as a mouse because a cord, which connected the device to the computer, resembled the tail of a mouse. A person provided input to a computer via the mouse by rolling the mouse on a flat surface and clicking buttons.
Montgomery Scott mistook the device for an audio-input device when he traveled back in time to 1986, speaking into it when his attempts to talk directly to the computer were unsuccessful. ()
Kathryn Janeway used the device to access Chronowerx Industries database in 1996. ()
