In 2379, military scientists on the space vessel USM ''Auriga'' create a cloning of Ellen Ripley, designated Ripley 8, using DNA from blood samples taken before her death. The Alien queen's DNA has been mixed in with Ripley's, so the clone grows up with an embryo inside it. The scientists extract the embryo, raise it, and collect its eggs while keeping Ripley 8 alive for further study. As a result of the xenomorphs' DNA inside her, the clone has enhanced strength and reflexes, somewhat acidic blood, and a psychic link with the xenomorphs.
