i think in one of the Matrix movies one of the ships has the name " nostromo" as well. if you dont know, the name is from the novel of the same title by joseph conrad, born in polandm died in Britain. the novel deals with capitalisn, business, alienation, etc,
the writers and director of Alien were not ignorant of the origin of the name for the ship: it was chosen deliberately. is Alien an allegory about the consequences of far-flung capitalism? i dont know. but i like that name-
Nostromo

• and if i still had my boat i would rename that.
