Andorians are a fictional race of humanoid extraterrestrials in the
American science fiction franchise Star Trek. They were created by
writer D. C. Fontana. Within the Star Trek narrative, they are native
to the blue icy Class M moon, Andoria (also called Andor). Distinctive
traits of Andorians include their blue skin, a pair of cranial
antennae, and white hair.Andorians first appeared in the 1968 Star
Trek: The Original Series episode "Journey to Babel", and have been
seen or mentioned in episodes of subsequent series in the Star Trek
franchise. They were indicated to be a vital, important member of the
United Federation of Planets in the 1997 Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
episode "In the Cards", but did not gain considerable exposure until
the 2001â€"2005 series Star Trek: Enterprise, on which they were used
as recurring characters, most notably in the person of Thy'lek Shran,
a starship commander who maintained a sometimes adversarial and
begrudging friendship with Enterprise Captain Jonathan Archer. The
series revealed more about Andorian ships, the home world Andoria, and
the culture and history of Andorians and their subspecies, the Aenar.
The 2004 episode "Zero Hour" established that Andorians were one of
the four founding members of the United Federation of
Planets.Andorians appeared in four episodes of The Original Series,
but there was very little back story on the Andorians until
Enterprise. Historically, the Andorians were rivals with the Vulcans.
In the episode "The Andorian Incident", the Andorian Imperial Guard
appeared on a Vulcan monastery world P'Jem to search for a spy
station, destroying property in the process. Archer discovered the spy
station and informed the Andorians, leading Shran (an Andorian) to
become trusting of Archer. Also in this episode, Andorians begin to
refer to humans using the pejorative "pink-skin."
