Description

They are quite similar to Terrans except with enlarged eyes and a small nose.

Culture

The Galipotan culture refuses to acknowledge the concept of time (perhaps the reason its freighter was late one day at Deep Space 9) and is considered hard to deal with by time-based civilizations. The Galipotans are best known for their burgeoning textile trade, which is almost all they can do without encountering cultural conflicts. Galipotans are known for making "magnificent sweaters," in Garak's opinion.
