The Malon are a humanoid species from Malon Prime in the Delta Quadrant, first encountered by the USS Voyager in 2375.

In terms of physical features the Malon have a rather broad nose with distinctly shaped nostrils. Their skin is a yellowish-brown color. Their forehead has a slight ridge-like protrusion on it and its pattern seems is the same on most Malon. The Malon have brown hair which is usually thick and wavy when they are young, but like in humans receding hairlines and baldness may occur in older Malon. Their hair follicles grow from the mid part of their heads, just after the ridge-like pattern.

Although technologically advanced, the Malon lack the technology to recycle antimatter waste, which emits hazardous theta radiation. Therefore, this hazardous waste is dumped in open space in vast quantities by waste export vessels. The Malon attempt to find uninhabited regions for this waste, but this is not always the case.

Those who encounter controllers and core laborers will notice their skin has many sores due to theta radiation exposure. The Malon use analeptic compound injections to counter the freighter blight, but while the treatment keeps them alive it does not prevent skin scarring.

Given Voyager encounters Malon vessels 30,000 light-years apart, one has to wonder, do the Malon control a region of space that vast? Do they have access to numerous wormholes or subspace shortcuts that allow them to dump antimatter waste far from their space? Or do they faster than warpdrive technology such as transwarp or quantum slipstream drive? It is likely that these question will never be answered.
