The humanoid Centaurian, one of two life-forms of the Great Star Union of Centaurus, per Sheldan Nidle's Galactic Federation material.
THINK ABOUTIT’S ALIEN TYPE SUMMARY
CENTAURIAN HUMANOID
Per Sheldan Nidle’s Galactic Federation material, the star nation known as the Great Star Union of Centaurus is home to two distinct life-forms sharing the same craft and the same reputation as “great strategists” — this page covers the humanoid type; its reptoid counterpart is covered in this archive’s companion “Centurians” entry.
Name: Centaurian (Humanoid type)
AKA: Per source, part of the star nation “The Great Star Union of Centaurus.” “Rigel Kentaurians” reflects Alpha Centauri A’s alternate name (Rigil Kentaurus) but is not itself a term used in the Nidle source.
Location – Home System: The constellation Centaurus, home to the triple-star Alpha Centauri system (Centauri A, B, and Proxima Centauri C) — Proxima Centauri being the closest star to our Sun, per source.

Distance from Earth: Approximately 4.3 light years (Proxima Centauri), accurate and consistent with source.
Attitude: Diplomatic and harmonious, per source, consistent with their described role.
Motives: Per source, serving as Federation Liaison Counselors, working toward inter-species cooperation.
Physical Appearance: Per source: males range from nearly 5’5″ to almost 8 feet tall; females range from just over 6.5 feet to almost 8 feet. Hair in blonde, brown, black, or red; skin ranging from dark brown to slightly tanned white; eyes slightly Asian in shape or rounded, in brown, black, blue, green, or hazel. Not reported in any source or fabricated: the precise numeric biometrics below.
- Average Height: Males 5’5″-8 ft (1.8-2.4m); females just over 6.5 ft to almost 8 ft — matches source exactly.
- Average Weight: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
- Body Temperature: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
- Pulse/Respiration: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
- Blood Pressure: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
- Life Expectancy: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
- Hair: Blonde, brown, black, or red, per source.
- Skin: Dark brown to slightly tanned white, per source.
- Eyes: Slightly Asian in shape, or rounded; brown, black, blue, green, or hazel, per source.
- Sex: Male and female, similar to terrestrial human biology, per source.
Other Physical Information: Not reported in any source or fabricated beyond the description above.
Special Traits and Abilities: Per source, known as great strategists and Federation Liaison Counselors, skilled at bringing diverse sentient beings together peacefully and harmoniously — matches source closely.
Communication Type: Per source, described as guttural like German, but tonal-sounding like Chinese.
Origin: The Alpha Centauri A and B systems, per source.
Life Form Type: Physical humanoid, per source.
Subspecies: Not reported in any source or fabricated as a formal “Nordic/Alpha-Vedic” division; the source describes one humanoid type with the height/coloring range noted above, alongside the separate reptoid type covered in the companion entry.
Most Common Species: Not reported in any source or fabricated as a formal designation.
Level of Species: Not reported in any source or fabricated (“Level III” classification has no traceable origin in the Nidle source).
Habits: Not specifically detailed beyond their diplomatic/strategist role in source material.
Transportation Type: Per source: an all-purpose scout ship, bell-shaped with a large lens-like circular wing on its underside, about 45 feet in diameter and nearly 30 feet in height; and a command ship, cigar-shaped with a small central bulge, approximately 200 feet in length — matches source exactly, shared with the reptoid Centaurian type.
Witnesses Reports: Sourced to Sheldan Nidle’s Galactic Federation reference material rather than a specific named contactee; general “Nordic-looking pilot” sightings are consistent with, but not independently confirmed beyond, this reference tradition.
Special Features/Characteristics: Not reported in any source or fabricated.
Summary/Description: Per Sheldan Nidle’s Galactic Federation material, the humanoid Centaurians are one of two life-form types belonging to the star nation “The Great Star Union of Centaurus,” alongside a reptoid Centaurian type (covered in this archive’s companion “Centurians” entry). Both share identical scout and command craft and both are described as accomplished strategists serving as Federation Liaison Counselors.
Source: Sheldan Nidle, Planetary Activation Organization (PAO) Galactic Federation material, “Centurians” entry (Star Nation: The Great Star Union of Centaurus), as reproduced in “Types of Aliens” reference compilations (tarrdaniel.com, mshaibu.wordpress.com).
Related Cases: This archive’s companion “Centurians” entry (the reptoid life-form type of the same star nation, sharing identical craft and abilities).
DETAILED REPORT
This entry and its companion “Centurians” page both trace to a single Sheldan Nidle/PAO reference entry describing the star nation “The Great Star Union of Centaurus,” which is documented as having two distinct life-form types: a humanoid Centaurian, covered here, and a reptoid Centaurian, covered in the companion entry. Both types share the same two craft descriptions (the bell-shaped scout and cigar-shaped command ship) and the same “great strategists/Federation Liaison Counselors” reputation — which explains why this text appears nearly identically on both archive pages. This was previously mischaracterized (in one prior correction pass) as content duplication or cross-contamination between unrelated pages; it is, more accurately, one sourced entry appropriately split into two companion pages describing the two forms of one star nation, consistent with how this archive handles other two-form species (e.g., Biave/Biaviians).
RESEARCHER’S NOTES
Centaurian Humanoid — Correctly a Companion to Centurians, Not a Separate or Duplicated Entry
- Source Fidelity: Height ranges, hair/skin/eye description, craft dimensions, and ability description all match the Nidle source closely and accurately.
- Prior Correction Reversed: An earlier pass on this entry incorrectly split it into four unrelated traditions (Santinians, Klarer’s Meton, Paz Wells’ Apu, plus Nidle). The correct sourcing is simpler: one Nidle entry, two life-forms, two companion pages.
- Fabrication Flag: Precise biometrics beyond height, and the “Level III” classification, remain unsupported.
- Evidentiary Weight: Channeled/reference Galactic Federation material, not witness testimony. Filed as CHANNELED/REFERENCE tradition.
The Centaurian Humanoid entry is accurately sourced almost word-for-word to a single Nidle reference document describing one star nation with two life-forms — this page and its “Centurians” companion should be read and maintained together, not treated as separate, unrelated, or duplicated content.
“Centaurians are known for their abilities as great strategists and Federation Liaison Counselors. They excel at bringing groups of diverse sentient Beings together and at achieving their goals in a most peaceful and harmonious manner.”
