Yes, ‘Alien: Earth’ Is Actually Going There With the Xenomorphs

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-10-31 01:30:00

When Alien: Earth started, the main novelty was the idea of seeing an alien on Earth. Now, a few episodes in, we’ve seen that and things have moved along. Then it became about the idea of scientists actually studying these legendary creatures, a moment the franchise always hinted at but never fully got around to. In those ways and more, Alien: Earth was doing things the movies could never, and had never, done. But with its fourth episode, creator Noah Hawley and his team have taken that notion t

To figure this out, you're going to need to do some calculations and gather some information. First, you need to know what devices you are going to power.

The first stars may not have been as uniformly massive as we thought

For decades, astronomers have wondered what the very first stars in the universe were like. These stars formed new chemical elements, which enriched the universe and allowed the next generations of stars to form the first planets. The first stars were initially composed of pure hydrogen and helium, and they were massive—hundreds to thousands of times the mass of the Sun and millions of times more luminous. Their short lives ended in enormous explosions called supernovae, so they had neither the
