What makes Star Trek such a hit among sci-fi enthusiasts? The story about battling the problems of the Universe in the distant future. The memorable characters. The awesome technology used in the TV series and movies. And, you guessed it right, the Star Trek women—the hot, gorgeous women who had sizzled the fans’ viewing experience for more than 40 years.

Star Trek was considered a groundbreaking TV show when it debuted in the 1960s, as it featured women as commanders during the civil rights movement. Despite its anti-sexist claim, the series have featured several Star Trek women dressed in sexy, figure-hugging costumes.

Here are a few Star Trek women who played lead roles in the series and movies.

Seven of Nine (played by Jeri Ryan). She was born human but when she turned six, she was assimilated by the Borg. The character appeared in Star Trek: Voyager series in 1995.

Lieutenant Ilia (played by the late Miss India Persis Khambhatta). Appearing in the film The Motion Picture released in 1979, Ilia is the only Star Trek female character with a shaved head—and still looked beautiful.

New Uhura (played by Zoe Saldana). She is a familiar character for those who have seen the latest 2009 Star Trek movie. Uhura is Spock’s love interest when he was young.

Yeoman Rand (played by Grace Lee Whitney). In the original TV series, Yeoman plays the sexy blonde who was Captain James Kirk’s apple of the eye.

Lieutenant Tasha Yar (played by Denise Crosby). A tough blonde rebel, Yar appeared in The Next Generation series in 1987.

USS Enterprise

Star Trek defined TV science fiction in the 1960s. Set ahead of its time (around 20th century), Star Trek showcased several technological wonders such as starships. Largely influenced by the starships of the TV series, some fans try to build their own Star Trek ships.

For non-Trekkies, a starship refers to a manned spacecraft that can travel and transport a crew across interstellar distances at great speeds. Star Trek ships are able to do that through spacecraft propulsion technologies such as warp drive.

One of the most well-known sci-fi spacecrafts ever is found in Star Trek, USS Enterprise, was the Flagship of the Federation. Since the TV series began, seven Star Trek ships have used the name and have gone to places “where no one has gone before.”

Popular as well is the starship that was under the command of Captain James T. Kirk. Touted as the starship that started it all, the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 launched from the San Francisco yards that revolve around the Earth in the year 2245. The original starship, which was used in the TV series, was designed by the first art director of Star Trek.

On the other hand, the starship that was under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard is the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E. This Star Trek ship launched in 2371 and was able to stop the Borg’s assimilation of humanity the following year.

Another ship that was under the command of Picard was the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D, which was launched in 2363 from the Utopia Planitia Shipyards that revolved around Mars. The ship was ruined in 2371 during a mission to halt the devastation of the Veridian system.

It’s easy to dress up in Star Trek uniform costumes to act like the crew of a Federation Starship.
