I know what you're thinking — Alien is in space?
Believe it or not, this 1979 sci-fi-horror epic did indeed, take place in space. (I should have worked in a Ripley joke there — the believe it or not thing... get it? Yeah? Fine.)
In fact, most of Alien takes place inside a single spaceship. Do you remember what that ship is named?

Correct Answer: Nostromo
The answer is: Nostromo. In an ode to Joseph Conrad's 1904 novel, Nostromo: A Tale of the Seaboard, the primary setting for Ridley Scott's 1979 groundbreaking sci-fi/horror film is the space tug, Nostromo.Spoiler alert: the ship doesn't make it.Source
