Even the most casual of Star Trek fans can notice the common trend of aliens encountered throughout Starfleet's numerous voyages of having primarily humanoid features.
The reason for many of the major Trek aliens being human like is for a variety of reasons, primarily the budget. When Star Trek first aired it was working with a very limited amount of funds, and often had to rely on the occasional over appliance of makeup or even Silly Putty to mark the difference between the aliens and their human counterparts.
This tradition would later continue on to the revival series Star Trek: The Next Generation, where often many of the aliens could not appear to be anything but human.
But can you tell the difference? Test your Star Trek alien knowledge and see if you can distinguish the humans from the aliens!
