Xenomorphs, or Aliens, are a parasitic species who's real origins are unclear.

Xenomorphs，或外星人，是一种寄生物种，其真正的起源尚不清楚。

Perhaps check out some of HR Giger's artwork, who's terrifying imagery inspired the xenomorphs from the Alien franchise.

或许可以看看 HR Giger 的一些艺术作品，他的恐怖意象启发了《异形》系列中的异形。

The Xenomorph life cycle begins with an egg which contains a short-lived organism known as a Facehugger.

Xenomorph 生命周期始于一个蛋，蛋中含有一种被称为 Facehugger 的短命生物。

Xenomorphs are a eusocial species much like ants, honey bees, and other social insects, with a clearly defined caste system.

Xenomorphs 是一种社会性物种， 很像蚂蚁、蜜蜂和其他社会性昆虫，具有明确定义的种姓制度。

So it's time to make like a Russian firebat and get your hands on some sweet, Xenomorph destroying flamethrowers.

因此，是时候像俄罗斯火蝙蝠一样制作并获得一些甜美的 Xenomorph 毁灭性火焰喷射器了。

Though their origin remains a mystery, we have enough experience with xenomorphs to have learned a lot about them as a species.

尽管它们的起源仍然是个谜，但我们对异形有足够的经验， 可以对它们作为一个物种了解很多。

So how would you take on a deadly xenomorph?

那么你将如何应对致命的异形呢？

But, it's not as easy as all that, since Xenomorphs have shown an incredible ability to adapt and problem solve through creative means.

但是， 事情并没有那么容易，因为异形已经显示出令人难以置信的适应能力和通过创造性手段解决问题的能力。

You might be tempted to fall back on firearms, after all despite their bullet-resistant hides, large calibers have been proven to injure a Xenomorph.

你可能会想退回到枪支上， 毕竟尽管它们的外壳是防弹的，但大口径已被证明可以伤害 Xenomorph。

A Xenomorph's acidic blood poses a significant risk to any would-be attackers, as it is extremely corrosive and capable of easily dissolving steel, aluminum, or even titanium.

Xenomorph 的酸性血液对任何潜在的攻击者构成重大风险，因为它具有极强的腐蚀性并且能够轻易溶解钢、铝甚至钛。

The hide of a Xenomorph is made out of a chitin that is believed to be coated with a layer of polarized silicon which makes it very resistant to electricity and heat.

Xenomorph 的外皮由甲壳素制成，据信甲壳素涂有一层极化硅，使其非常耐电和耐热。

Sure, you might get a few blasts off with Comrade Flamethrower, but with a maximum range of 60 feet, a Xenomorph will simply retreat and rethink its plan of attack.

当然，您可能会用同志火焰喷射器进行几次爆炸，但最大射程为 60 英尺， Xenomorph 只会撤退并重新考虑其攻击计划。

Extreme cold such as liquid nitrogen is also exceptionally effective against a Xenomorph, and its thought that rapid changes in temperature cause the Xenomorph's chitinous armor to rapidly contract and expand causing it great pain.

像液氮这样的极寒对异形也格外有效，它认为温度的快速变化会导致异形的几丁质装甲迅速收缩和膨胀， 从而给它带来巨大的痛苦。

While they won't explode as the fuel still requires heat to ignite, you're going to be left with in essence an empty squirt gun when the Xenomorph comes to eat your face off.

虽然它们不会爆炸， 因为燃料仍然需要热量才能点燃，但当 Xenomorph 来吃掉你的脸时， 你将只剩下一把空水枪。

The lack of eye organs also seems to indicate that this is a strong possibility, and its thought that xenomorphs track their prey by scent and electroreception much like a hammerhead shark and many sting rays.

眼部器官的缺失似乎也表明这是一种很强的可能性，它认为异形体通过气味和电接收来追踪它们的猎物， 就像锤头鲨和许多黄貂鱼一样。

Taking on an entire hive of angry xenomorphs is guaranteed death- but let's say that you were pitted up against just one of these vicious creatures, how could you defeat it, and what are you up against exactly?

对付一整群愤怒的异形生物必死无疑——但假设你只与这些邪恶生物中的一个对抗，你怎么能打败它，你究竟要对抗什么？

Given their incredible stealth and ability to squeeze into very tight places, a Xeno will likely simply back off and wait to literally get the drop on you (animator: have xenomorph drop down from ceiling).

鉴于他们令人难以置信的隐身能力和挤进非常狭窄的地方的能力，Xeno 可能会简单地后退并等待从字面上掉落到你身上（动画师：让异形从天花板上掉下来）。
