The commercial towing vehicle the USCSS Nostromo picked up a deep-space S.O.S., which forced the ship's on-board computer, Mother, to awaken its crew from hyper-sleep. Captain Arthur Dallas tracked the S.O.S. signal to an unidentified world, where they found the remains of a alien pilot in his ship, which also included a cargo bay filled with strange pods. A crab-like specimen from one of the pods attacked First Officer Commander Gilbert Kane, and the crew brought him back to the Nostromo for observation. This "face-hugger" implanted an egg into Kane's body, using him as a living incubator. When the egg hatched, it burst from his chest and escaped into the bowels of the ship. Dallas and the others hunted the creature down, but it quickly matured into a full-sized xenomorph, and systematically killed the members of the crew, one by one. The only one to survive was Warrant officer Ellen Ripley, who ejected the alien through the airlock of the ship.
