By the time ofAlien: Romulus' ending, this became clear.
This makes the Renaissance noticeably different from previousAlienships.
For example, the Nostromo fromAlienwas a freighter ship, used to tow mining materials to and from planets.
The latter, Remus, is shown to house several facehuggers inAlien: Romulus.
This lab was where the iconic sci-fi aliens were tested on and, subsequently, cloned and frozen.
The Romulus lab, however, goes deeper than this.

Finally, there is the meaning behind the Romulus and Remus labs being named as such.
Thetimeline ofAlien: Romulusis established early in the movie.
The film is set midway between the events ofAlienandAliensand ties heavily to the former.

It is revealed that the Xenomorph from the finale ofAlienformed a cocoon after being ejected into space by Ripley.
Navarro is the first casualty when she is enveloped by a facehugger, eventually becoming a Xenomorph.
That same Xenomorph kills Bjorn before the other aliens created by the former crew of the Renaissance kill Tyler.
