Spock, portrayed by Leonard Nimoy in the original "Star Trek" series and films, was half human and half Vulcan.

An evolutionary biologist suggests that such interbreeding could happen only if humans were related to Vulcans by a recent ancestor. It is posted under Fair Use guidelines. For them, "humanoid" was a word that only applied to the Xindi-Primates , despite the fact that the Arboreals and the Reptilians also generally met the criteria. Starfleet developed a classification system for humanoids which included at least five variations including class 3 humanoids , such as the Vidiians , and class 5 humanoids , such as the Vhnori.

Two legs, arms, head, etc. In the past, we have met humanoid aliens, such as Klingons, Vulcans and Romulans. Memory Alpha Explore. Christopher Pike Number One. James T. Generations First Contact Insurrection Nemesis.

As with other space-faring groups, the Vulcans used an easily identifiable subspace band frequency in communication. Over a hundred years ago, a Vulcan science mission responded to the Hanoli rift but was lost along with the Hanoli system when the rupture expanded while probing it. There were no reports of imagination manifestations, perhaps not too unusual considering their nature.

Vulcans are typically stronger than Humans, though they do not boast of this strength. Bashir beat an otherwise unidentified Vulcan in the finals to lead the Starfleet Medical School team to the sector tennis championship his final year Vulcans were brewing wines at least years ago circa — or since before the United Federation of Planets was founded.

Although Cardassian mental disciplines may be a match for the Vulcans, they do not employ telepathy. Vulcan IDIC pins, highly collectible, were not usually available on Deep Space Nine — one of Quark's would-be expanded sales items by inter-station monitor.

The Vulcan healer Senva was nominated for the Carrington Award in With Star Trek looking to expand massively as Discovery season 3 moves into the far future, Picard reunites The Next Generation fans with Jean-Luc, and even more TV shows are in the works, we can expect many more humanoid aliens.

Here's why the future doesn't go as bold as you'd expect. To invoke Star Wars again, this is a franchise that never flirts with billion-dollar movie grosses or ratings dominance on television. Despite a devoted cult following, the show struggled to maintain an audience and TOS was ultimately canceled after season 3. Due to its relative underperformance and the fact that special effects were limited even for the most lavish productions of that era, the crew of The Original Series had to get innovative.

The show's most omnipresent extraterrestrial, the Vulcan Spock, was made to look alien with fairly simple ear prosthetics, shaved eyebrows, and a bowl cut. The original Romulans looked essentially identical to Vulcans, meaning they simply borrowed Spock's prosthetic and makeup design. Even the original Klingons were just actors with fake beards and dark makeup on their faces; most of those actors were white, which makes watching those episodes in the 21st century more than a little uncomfortable.

Star Trek: The Original Series made a few attempts at non-humanoid aliens, with mixed results. The best was likely in the beloved episode "The Devil In The Dark," where Kirk and Spock attempt to hunt down an alien that is gruesomely murdering workers on a mining planet.

The creature is eventually revealed as the Horta, a misunderstood alien simply trying to protect its young. The Horta itself was played by Janos Prohaska, who created many of the special effects for the show. The Horta was intended to appear as a creature of living rock, but ended up looking more like a giant pile of burnt cheese.
