En 2137, quinze ans après la disparition du Nostromo, Amanda Ripley, fille d’Ellen Ripley, est approchée par Christopher Samuels, un synthétique de Weyland-Yutani, qui l'informe de la récente localisation de la boîte noire du Nostromo[5]. La boîte noire, localisée par le vaisseau Anesidora, se trouve à bord de la station Sébastopol, un lointain port spatial appartenant à Seegson Corporation en orbite autour de la géante gazeuse KG348[5]. Samuels offre à Amanda une place dans l’équipe de la Weyland-Yutani envoyée pour récupérer la boîte noire, afin qu’elle puisse tourner la page concernant le sort de sa mère disparue[5]. Ripley, Samuels et Nina Taylor, l’employée du service juridique de la Weyland-Yutani, partent pour Sébastopol à bord du vaisseau Torrens appartenant au capitaine Diane Verlaine (Jane Perry (en)[6])[5]. Le groupe arrive à Sébastopol et trouve la station endommagée et ses communications non opérationnelles[5]. Ripley, Samuels et Taylor tentent une sortie dans l’espace pour enquêter mais leur câble est coupé par les débris d’une explosion et Ripley est séparée du groupe et forcée d’entrer seule dans la station[5].
