Pala Station was a classified Weyland-Yutani research facility located on the surface of LV-895. At the base, Xenomorph bio-materials were tested on living creatures to advance Weyland-Yutani's capabilities. Following a delivery of ovomorphs from Katanga in 2202, Pala Station became overrun, unleashing its mutated experiments onto the planet's surface.

One of the Lab's achievements is the creation of a protoype acid-resistant armor for the Colonial Marines.[2]
The lab is larger than the rest of tight confines of Pala Station. It consist of a reception room and a central area dubbed "Grand Central", boasting with top-of-the-line equipment. Beyond Grand Central a single corridor with ten-by-ten containment units made of an special glass.[3]

History[]
Establishment[]
Pala Station was constructed in LV-895 at unknown time before 2180, with the objective of studying ancient engineer ruins on the planet.[6]
Following the infestation of the Katanga orbital refinery in 2180, the station had also been the site of Xenomorph research, brought there by re-supply ships as the San Lorenzo. It is unknown how often the station received xenomorph specimens as Dr. Kash stated her predecessor only had one and in over a year she had seen two, one of infected 'explorers' and another shipment of adult xenomorphs in cryostasis.[7]
