Before I saw the extended version of Aliens, I always figured the facehuggers hatched for whatever reason, and made their way to Hadley's Hope on LV-426. After the extended version was released, that idea seemed not to be true. When the Jorden's entered the Derelict, obviously a faceugger got Newt's dad. How do you guys think the alien colonization of Hadley's Hope happened from just one facehugger on one human? I have my own theory, but would like to hear your guys' theories first.

I think 1 alien drone fully matured and started planting the eggs in Hadley's Hope from the Derilect and eventually started to infest the colony one person at a time. They finnaly got the queen into the atmosphere processor and from there founded the hive.

You're saying the first drone born was the queen? That wouldn't be unlikely really, given in insects (which the aliens are not) rarely is something born as a queen, but becomes one if there is no queen around.
Or are you saying the alien drone traveled back and forth from Hadley's Hope to the Derelict with the eggs? I think this is unlikely as once the colonists saw what was happening they would seal their selves in.
___________________________
What I think happened is once the rescue team showed up that Newt's mom called for, and once Newt's dad was taken back to the colony, a team went in the Derelict to investigate, all of them or most of them were attacked by a facehugger, and then taken back to Hadley's Hope. The facehugger from Newt's dad escaped, as did most of the rest of them (except for the ones they took off, killing the hosts) and from there the chain of events happened that lead to the occupation of Hadley's hope by the aliens.

I reckon they took Rebecca (newt)'s dad into to be examined, and found some more facehuggers and were experimenting on them when they went nuts and started attacking... i thought that because of all the facehuggers the army guys find in the tubes... the ones burke sets on ripley and newt. Pretty similar to what you said, Myke

They did remove at least one of them, one of them died during the procedure according to Bishop reading the charts.
