Vulcans
Spock's pointy-eared people
Vulcans are a fictional alien species from the Star Trek franchise, characterized by pointed ears, suppressed emotions, and devotion to logic.
The Vulcan salute—hand raised with fingers split between middle and ring finger—accompanies the greeting Live long and prosper.
Someone called a Vulcan in everyday speech is being described as coldly logical or emotionless: Don't be such a Vulcan about it.
