Rigellians are aliens from the planet Rigel 7. Their most notable members are Kang and Kodos, although Serak the Preparer is also Rigellian.

Rigellians are approximately 7 ft. 0 in (2.13 m), continuously drooling saliva, one-eyed beings with eight tentacles. While not on their planet, they wear space helmets, but not space suits. They speak the Rigellian language, which, by coincidence, is identical to English. Their number four looks like a human skull. Peculiarly, they occasionally vomit through their eye, which resembles human crying, but Kodos said they "always secrete ocular fluid at weddings". They must hold hands to exchange long protein strands. They have declared that their religion is to be "Quantum Presbyterians".
