    I just always assumed that their green skin was evolved in a manner similar to most species with regards to coloration, as a natural camoflaging. As you noted, the plantlife on their planet is green as well, perhaps their ancient ancestors evolved green skin to blend in to help hunt prey and hide from other predators.

      Many evolution fan layman assume that mutations just happen conveniently to situational circumstance. However if mutations occur they must be random and they must be based on biochemical realities already existing in the physiology of the parent of the mutation. Some of them work out, many don't. Some aid health, most are destructive to health.
      Melanin in human skin can go pale pink to tan to black based on the density of melanin cites and their dilation ability. Human skin without these elements are very pale, with some pink, more or dialations tan, lots almost black.
      However the whiter people didn't just wake up in 7million BCE and say, man this sun is harsh on the skin. Road Trip.

    I was tempted to be a jerk and say, “because that’s what color the body paint was.” But then your video was too excellent. Well done.
    Now if I really want to be a hair-splitting troll, I could point out that Susan Oliver (The Cage) was actually NOT the first actor to portray an Orion (as, technically speaking, she wasn’t actually Orion, but a human roll playing an Orion in an illusion). Technically speaking, the distinction of the first actor to portray an actual Orion should be credited to Yvonne Craig in the TOS episode “Whom Gods Destroy.” But I’m not a troll, so I would never do that.

      So do central African negroes have black blood cased on carbon? Blood does tint transparent skin (very obvious in Caucasian newbirn babies), but coloring is primarily cells that produce pigmentation despite blood color. Often by hormones (chameleons) or photoreactive (humans with a tan) or by pigment cell density (black humans)

      Excuse me gentlemen.
      I couldn't help overhearing. Mr. Rudibega is employing the flawed logic of *bulverism* or the *identity fallacy*. Instead of presenting information relevant to the discussion, he fabricates his own false premise of motive upon another, and then attacks that construct of his own fictional motive instead of relevant information.
      This is not a valid form of logical discussion or debate. An argument can only be valid if the form of the argument is logically valid.
      So avoid using Bulverism, the Identity Fallacy. That would be wise.
      Afterall, it is only logical.

    I remember once in a TOS episode there was a conversation wherein Spock drops the fact that Vulcan and Rigellian anatomies are very similar. Didn’t FASA’s Star Trek role playing game back in the eighties mention that Rigel is part of the Orion colonies? Still, one has to wonder why green blood would only cause Vulcans to appear with only a slight greenish tinge to their skin color and Orions get a full on green hue.

  • @blacklite911
    @blacklite911 2 роки тому +1

    This explanation is while not wrong, it’s not wide enough in scope. Think alien.
    Another way to produce green skin is if it is indeed chlorophyll, however they evolved in such a way that they do not metabolize chlorophyll the way earth mammals do and instead it circulates through their body like an insect. So perhaps their blood is composed entirely differently.
    Or recently, we have found that green sea slugs have gained the ability to produce chlorophyll through taking genes from algae and are indeed photosynthetic though not dependent on it like plants.
    Another way closer to us is if they naturally have high levels of biliverdin due to differences in liver function (or analogue organ) and instead of it being toxic to them like it is for humans, they adapted to tolerate it. This is why some reptiles have green blood.
    People have also suggested that it is leftover from being evolved from an animal that uses it as camouflage

    • @toddkes5890
      @toddkes5890 3 роки тому +6

      I figure Orions have been genetically engineering themselves for centuries. So the pheromones they emit would be tailored to local species, allowing Orions to better control whoever they meet. That would be an interesting idea for Orion history, where they would attempt to take over a political organization subtly, rather than by conquest. So lots of politicking rather than threatening, along with building up others to provide better leverage.
      The pheromones would also be used to establish their dominance at court functions, where the scent of the leader is supposed to be the strongest. This would affect room design, making sure that the scents/pheromones of the guests is sent out of the room via carefully arranged wind traps, while the pheromone scent of the leader would be blown over the guests (to reinforce her authority). It also means if an Orion leader is injured, that her pheromones won't be as strong, potentially leading to a coup or other political turnover (since nobody can smell her scent as strongly).
      As to the body shape - S6E20 "The Chase"
      Orion desire for wealth/luxury could even drive their technological development. Rome on Earth would not have wanted to develop better tools as it could put slaves out of work. Orions would develop better technology to make more wealth available. You would also have other Orions who would see the greater wealth being produced, and demand some of that wealth themselves (instead of wealth being concentrated).

    In addition I imagine that the females have learn to control their powerful pheromones so that it doesn’t cause any problems for males.
    To add Orion males are no longer the slaves of the Orion females, and that equality has finally developed on their home planet.
    Plus to add I imagine that new skin colors have developed of the Orions race, and that the females are interested in finding romance with males of other races.

      @@OrangeRiver I like your take on these subjects, and the way you delve into what a lot of us old trekkers have been talking about for decades. Keep up the excellent work.

    If they came from a galaxy far, far away, maybe they were descended from Twi'leks?

      I haven't really covered the Prime Directive as a singular topic, I believe.

    lol... I love this. OK. Pine in the ST movie supposedly used an Orien Cadet to help him re- program the unsolvable simulation ( forgot the name) that he faced in The Academy. Can we see the cut film or more likely , can you explain what happened. ? My other topic is the lack of Canon.... but maybe that is good... as if we ( OK ,a future script writer ) doesn't like what happened in the past.. he can forget it..... so.. maybe not following Canon can be good. What are your thoughts. ?
