AvPGalaxy Interviews James A. Moore

[Corporal Hicks]

Makes perfect sense in terms of the plot.

Spoiler

The Annesidora finds the flight recorder and investigates the same beacon the Nostromo did. Encounters the same lifeform and brings it + flight recorder back to Sevestapol. Amanda shows up on invite to check out the flight recorder.

Not too much of a stretch since they keep it localized around LV-426. Convenient - yes - but not inconceivable.

[HuDaFuK]

Agreed. It was the inclusion of the Nostromo's flight data that made it all infinitely more plausible.
