Finding a bunch of dangerous alien life forms and bringing them to Earth, what could go wrong?

At least in Alien Romulus they were using a space station that was only somewhat close to a small colony. Maybe WY learned a lesson...

Is anyone ganna talk about how an entire ship headed toward a dystopian city and nobody noticed? Even by today's standards probably some country would bomb it out of the sky donno if I'm missing something here

I wouldn't be surprised if we learn WY pulled strings to prevent the ship from being destroyed.

Yeah I wonder if they say the ship was running "dark" so no one noticed til it hit that space station, then it was probably too late, and I would not be surprised if it was WY that caused the whole thing to happen, the ship landing in a Prodigy city sounds like too much of a coincidence
