[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] I believe James Cameron has explained somewhere, the answers to all those points. If I'm remembering correctly he said that the gas giant around which LV-426 was orbiting is still there, just that it was never seen in any of the shots. This does make sense since you can't always see Luna from a fixed point on earth, or in orbit but that doesn't mean it has disappeared. Also it looks more like a planet in Aliens because WY have had the atmosphere processors running 24/7 for the last few decades and so the clouds look much more dense. I think he also said that there had been some geological activity around the derelict since the Nostromo left and that Lava flows had damaged it, exposing the egg chamber (note that Newt's parents entered through a gash in the hull, not one of those exhaust orifices like Dallas & co) and also damaged the transmitter which is why there is no more warning beacon. As for the differences in the Aliens themselves remember that the one we saw in the first movie was less than 24 hours old when Ripley blew it out the airlock. The ones that infested the colony were much older, several months at least. The fact that they were members of a hive and not lone 'scouts' may or may not also be a factor. The aging theory is consistent with the other movies since the creature in Alien3 was also, quite young (a few days at most), smooth headed and looked quite similar the the original, as did all of the captive creatures in Alien 4 who were also only around for a few days at most.
