Cygnian

NotesImagesDatapoints
TimelinePeople
Universe : Prime Timeline
Species Name : Cygnian [1]
Quadrant : Alpha

A sentient humanoid species, native to the Omega Cygni system in the Alpha Quadrant. Cygnians are distinguishable by their eyes, which have a vertically slitted pupil, pale white-gold skin, and a slim tail. Cygnians have psionic abilities which allow them to sense the actions of others at a distance. [1]

In 2268, a report on Cygnian respiratory diseases was part of the library on the USS Enterprise. [2] In 2371 Dr Bashir was reading a report on the same topic on Deep Space Nine. [3]

The Cygnian home world of Cygnet XIV was an early member of the Federation. It was noted for excellence in computer sciences and a strict matriarchal form of government. Males were in the minority on the planet, and any male who wished to progress there faced considerable difficulty. [4]
