There is no reference here to why the aliens can kill humanoid upon contact. What is it about them? -- rebelstrike 21:24, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• I think that it's down to the nucleogenic energy that the aliens produce. I'm pretty sure that the Equinox EMH mentioned treating Chakotay and other members of the Voyager crew for the effects of nucleogenic energy.--Scimitar 22:43, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
