Since the peculiar and terrifying Red Xenomorph (RX) seems to represent survival alternatives, here's a fun addendum about a Company mission to make intelligent species contact with the RX reflective of a human consciousness regarding basic spiritual teamwork, and it's inspired by the customs magnifying 1976 social cohesion film
Network. It's rather odd but interesting to me that the Red Xenomorph symbolizes different stances on the tangibility of basic human distancing. Maybe we can compare the RX to the divisive Insecticon robot species from
Transforners (Hasbro) for good old-fashioned customs and social dioramas. After all, the entire
Alien franchise seems to symbolize a unique evolutionary consciousness.
Incidentally, I'm not pledging allegiance to either Irish Catholics or British Protestants in this little yarn about planetary insight.

Orem's words were unheeded, and the exploratory Company assembled a special specific mission crew to make more contact with the Red Xenomorph alien species. Orem meanwhile was being outfitted and trained for a future mission involving the colonization of an organic planet with the careful assistance of the Weyland cyborg-android Walter. The Company assembled a hodge-podge crew to find the Red Xenomorph and the mission members were a selected cross-section of representative individuals who're specifically representative of a criss-cross pattern of human consciousness, to engage the elusive and frightening but impressive Red Xenomorph with talons of species choreography. The human mission members were to be descendants of Irish Catholics and British Protestants, since Protestants and Catholics comprised the two dominant denominations of the world's most recognizable institutional faith, Christianity, and since Irish (Catholics) and British (Protestants) had tumbled with complexity for centuries! Incidentally, the Company ended up recruiting and training 20 mission members of which 10 (5 Catholic, 5 Protestant) were descendants of the IRA (Irish Republican Army) and BTs (British Black-and-Tans).
Now, the IRA and BTs were considered Christian armed rivals in Northern Ireland and the United Kingdom (on Earth) for many generations after the partition of mainland Ireland during the 20th Century war of independence from the British Empire resulted in the loss of Northern Ireland to England because of the statistics anomaly fact that the northern tip of mainland Ireland was demographically comprised of generations of numerous British Protestants who'd settled there as colonists under British policy. This infuriated many Irish Catholics who felt like Northern Ireland was simply lost to the Empire and fueled many IRA movements after Irish independence of Dublin and led to all kinds of rifts between Irish Catholics and British Protestants in Belfast (Northern Ireland). True division then between Catholics and Protestants in a land and region as civilization-symbolic as the United Kingdom created a species challenge regarding the harmonious homogenization of the planetary Christian community. Descendants of Irish Catholics and British Protestants living in Northern Ireland therefore represented a real cross-section of inter-religious complexity on Earth, which is why the Company chose these IRA/BTs descendants to be part of the Red Xenomorph mission.
The IRA and BTs descended crew members of the Company's Red Xenomorph mission were to serve as empathetic diplomats who'd engage with and converse with the anarchic Red Xenomorphs and relate to them hopefully on the level of disparity consciousness. Weyland believed such species cross-sections would create survival co-understanding. However, during the flight of the Company spaceship the Hugo to the planet RX1 where Red Xenomorph signals were detected and catalogued by Weyland, the IRA and BTs descended crew members (5 Catholics and 5 Protestants) argued constantly with each other over customs and diplomacy. The Irish seemed to think their disparity from the British made them messengers of endurance, while the British seemed to believe their overall tolerance of Irish dissatisfaction made them messengers of colonial complications. Obviously, if these crew members of the Hugo made contact with the Red Xenomorph species, there'd be something symbolic said about the complex quality of group divisions. Indeed, these IRA/BTs were among the first to spot and eventually converse with a Red Xenomorph on the planet RX1 and had their discussion recorded for the Company!
RED XENOMORPH (RX): We sense you humans are divided in your main religious order!
IRA: We've argued over the aesthetic of home rule in Britain for centuries, actually.
BTs: Protestant-Catholic division had been overshadowed by Israel-Palestine petrol.
RX: So your planetary Christian community was neglected because of oil!
IRA: Petroleum makes for focused organized capitalism.
BTs: It's the fuel for our land vehicle running.
RX: Did you think we'd arrive at some revelation about group intrigue?
IRA: We thought you'd consider our inter-religious rift symbolic of social stance.
BTs: We considered such a stance reflective of human survival.
RX: We'll soon discover if your social division makes for solid intelligence!
IRA: We don't seek confrontation with your species as competitors outright.
BTs: Yeah, we'd not end up as group messengers of mission failure.
