Ilia Probe

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) introduced Lieutenant Ilia, a bald and beautiful Deltan navigator serving aboard the Enterprise. When a mysterious and dangerous alien entity approaches Earth, Admiral Kirk resumes command of the intrepid starship and leads his former crew- along with newcomer Ilia and her former lover, Commander Will Decker on a mission to confront the unknown power. Once the crew makes contact, however, Ilia is abducted by the entity and replaced on the Enterprise with an identical robotic probe. Saddened by Ilia’s dis- appearance, Decker ultimately sacrifices himself and joins with the Ilia Probe in a successful attempt to save the planet.
