The zoology and biochemistry of xenomorphs from the Alien franchise
(jgeekstudies.org)
In science fiction, the xenomorph emerges as a creature that transcends the boundaries of traditional extraterrestrial movie knowledge (Fordham, 2023). From the corridors of the spaceship USCSS Nostromo to the haunting silence of the primordial exoplanet Acheron LV-426 (Flowers, 2020), the creature created by Ridley Scott and H.R. Giger has become the symbol of alien terror in movies and in collective imagination (Domino, 2019).
