What are the Solomons that were briefly mentioned in Alien? The Solomons were mentioned only three times, once in the movie and twice in Dallas' biography. Here are the quotes:
"This is commercial towing vehicle Nostromo out of the Solomons, registration number 1-8-0-niner-2-4-6-0-niner."
28 Apr 2113 - 09 Sep 2113: Smuggles weapons and medical supplies into the Solomons on civilian cargo vessel The Vidar, under Captain Joshua.
14 Dec 2113 - 04 May 2114: Freelances special transport ops of hazardous materials for Weyland-Yutani in the Solomons.
So what are the Solomons? Are they the Solomon Islands on Earth? It's later mentioned that the Nostromo had left Thedus. Are the Solomons a region of space or group of planets that includes Thedus. Are they a region on the planet Thedus. Are they the moons of Alpha Caeli V, which is what the Colonial Marines Technical Manual says they are?
