Lieutenant Ilia of Delta IV was assigned to the Enterprise as navigator during the V'ger crisis in TMP. She was killed on the Bridge by one of V'ger's probes, but her appearance was later given to another V'ger probe.
This Petrosomatoglyph, along with about 40 others, is located near the entrance to the closed Movieland Wax Museum. The cement contains the hand and footprints of the actress along with her name, the words “Star Trek” and the date 8-20-81.
The Petrosomatoglyph is located in front of the building, next to a Starbucks, which replaced the Starlite Gift Shop. Free parking is available.
Address:
