When you think of biology, you probably think of pristine labs and scientists in their little lab coats delicately putting mystery goo under microscopes and going "Hm, fascinating." I'm here to tell you that science's biggest breakthroughs were almost never that clean.

Correct Answer: The Engineers
The exact origin of Xenomorphs stays as messy as they leave their prey, BUT the Engineers deserve most of the blame for this cosmic oopsie. These giant pale space "geniuses" showed up as a dead fossil in the first "Alien" movie, but we didn't get the full story until "Prometheus" hit theaters in 2012. Turns out when you create the perfect killing machine, maybe include an off switch before hitting the "make universe's worst nightmare" button.
