Lt Ilia - Persis Khambatta

Played by the Indian-born Persis Khambatta, a former Miss India, she was notorious for having no hair. Unusual but definitely sexy, with short skirts and long legs to match, but for now lets focus on that shaven head.

A good attempt at making Romulans seem more attractive took shape in the form of Caithlin Dar, played by Cynthia Gpow, in The Final Frontier (1989).

vixis spice williams

Female klingons are still not my favourite sci-fi babes, but I appreciate that some people like the muscular type - so here is Vixis, played by stunt woman Spice Williams in The Final Frontier (1989).

Uhura Zoe Saldana

Although the storyline in the reboot may not have pleased all Trek fans, the inclusion of Zoe Saldana, herself no stranger to science fiction, surely was a welcome inclusion....

I've started the Start Trek babes page with Uhura and its only fitting to end with her also....

Want more?

There are plenty of sites out there - too many to link to - just do a search...

ImageOh the lovely ladies of Star Trek

I'm not going to pretend that this is the best Star Trek babe site. I'm not interesting in competing with others who devote their time to this one subject, but I'd like to think I've made a decent effort in selecting the ladies that I think are worthy. Yes I've probably missed a few - but I'll get round to them one day..
