The Antarians are a spacefaring alien species.
Biology[]
Antarians are purple-skinned creatures with six arms and four legs. Females may have orange hair, while the males are hairless. Females also have breasts, indicating that they're mammalianoids.
The lifespan of this species spans several millennia, and they seem to mature slowly. Childhood alone lasts well over four thousand years for them. Their diet seems to be omnivorous, since they enjoy pizza. However, mozzarella cheese has a soporific effect on their physiology, which causes them to fall asleep.
Culture and society[]
They originate from a planet orbiting a star in the Antares system. The Antarians hate violence, and if anyone uses violence they use a device attaching electronic chains at that person until he or she stops acting violent.
History[]
An Antarian family consisting of Klaatu the father, Barada the mother and their son Nikto visited Earth on vacation circa 2011 BC.
Appearances[]
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, s03e19, "Invasion of the Turtle Snatchers" (1989)
Notes[]
- If you didn't get the joke, the name of the Antarian family comes from the iconic line 'Klaatu Barada Nikto' which was used to calm the gort in The Day the Earth Stood Still
