Starship sensors and tricorders are primary instruments used in detecting or locating life-forms. This can be determined by identifying or localizing blood type, heart rate or metabolic setup. There are incredible similarities between the lifeforms on different worlds in the Star Trek universe. A probable explanation for this may be the existence of the ancient humanoids DNA during evolution.

  • A lifeform is simply any living entity or organism. The study of lifeforms is referred to as biology, and the study of alien lifeforms is categorized as xenobiology and xenology. Sensors and tricorders are primary instruments which are used by various spacefaring civilizations to detect and locate lifeforms by identifying blood type, heart rate, and metabolic setup, lifesigns.
  • Traits that could indicate whether something was a lifeform included the capacity to respond to the environment, respirate, reproduce, grow and develop, move, secrete, and excrete. Regardless, these criteria were not universally applicable, as organic, inorganic, artificial, and non-corporeal entities have all been considered lifeforms.

(TNG: "Datalore" ; TNG: "Home Soil" ; TNG: "Elementary, Dear Data" ; TNG: "The Measure Of A Man" ) Most space-faring civilizations built devices to remotely detect and locate known lifeforms. Starship sensors and tricorders were the primary instruments used, as they could identify or localize blood type, heart rate or metabolic setup. Typically, only organic lifeforms were detected. (TNG: "Home Soil" ) There are incredible similarities between the lifeforms on different worlds in the Star Trek universe. A probable explanation for this may be the existence of the ancient humanoids DNA during evolution.
