Alien Universe Colonies: Guides To Frontier Settlements
Human colonies in the Alien universe are usually company towns first and homes second: terraformers, mining camps, and prison settlements built far from Earth under Weyland-Yutani control. This category collects guides to those settlements, from the doomed terraforming town of Hadley's Hope on LV-426 to the mining colony of Jackson's Star and the penal colony on Fury 161. Colony pages focus on the settlement itself: layout, population, daily life, and what happened when a Xenomorph outbreak hit. For the moons and planetoids those towns sit on, see Alien Universe Planets; for the orbital platforms above them, visit Alien Universe Space Stations.
