The Nature of Immortality in Xenomorphs
Rook
XX-121 Xenomorph. ] Of the seven crewmembers aboard the U.S.S. Nostromo, only one survived, blowing the creature out of the airlock. We've been seaching for it ever since. 170 days ago, our search came to an end and the body of the Xenomorph was brought onboard, presumed dead. But, of course, lack of oxygen and food is of no true consequence to this "perfect organism"...
[[Alien (film)|One of our tag ships made first contact with this specimen two decades ago.]
Andy
Then nothing is truly immortal. Clearly.
