Leoniders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leoniders (леонидяне) are a fictional alien race from the Noon Universe created by the Strugatsky brothers. Their homeworld is Leonida (Леонида), a planet discovered in 2133 AD by Leonid Gorbovsky.
Leoniders are mentioned in "Noon: 22nd Century", "An Attempt to Escape" and "Beetle in an Anthill".
[edit] Appearance
Leoniders are humanoids like humans but somewhat smaller.
[edit] Technological advancement
The term "technological advancеment" is not very appropriate to Leoniders since their "technology" is very different from humanity's. It is known, for example, that they live in a perfect symbiosis with major forms of flora and fauna of Leonida.
[edit] Leoniders and Humans
No data available despite the continuous diplomatic contact between Leonida and Earth.
