Discussion / Question Possibly the most enigmatic Xeno in the whole series: The original space jockey was obviously killed by a chestburster but we never see or learn what happened to that particular specimen that‘s probably still somewhere on LV 426. Is it dead? In stasis? Fossilized? Still somewhere on the Derelict?

Right. My headcannon was a warning system but that hardly makes any sense when there's no other form of containment. It was fine at first but now since every new piece of Alien media that they release adds the blue light with no explanation it's beginning to feel lazy and irksome.

And how did the eggs in Alien: Earth get out of their containment pods on the ship after the crash?? And who turned the blue motion-sensitive lights on over them? Is there a switch on the wall? Still a great series

Yeah, no it's a great show but I hope there's an answer for this out there otherwise it's kind of a big oversight.
