Try to ignore all the baggage from decades of spinoffs, and just focus on this, the unexplainable, horrible, parasitic beast that stalked and killed a ship's crew. In Space, No One Can Hear You Scream.

Not Bad
At the Grand Rapids Public Museum for much of the 2021 pandemic year, this special exhibit has shown visitors the many gadgets and lives that have appeared in science fiction books and movies for a lifetime or more. The overarching theme of "Popnology" is imagined futures - some utopian and others dystopian. Within those worlds are technologies that are spotlighted here. This video clip shows the scale of the exhibit from a fixed position near the entryway into the hall; much more lies out of view along the far wall. Some booths and cases invite visitor interaction with buttons to push, dials to adjust (playback speeds), and objects to manipulate by hand or by robotic device. The VirtualReality section is a simulated participation opportunity: the visitor remains in one position, but the goggles and headphones offer a 360 experience of sights and sounds to scrutinize. All these eye-opening displays rest upon the idea that time flows in a straight line, rather than looping in circles of return, or a concept of time co-existing in past-present-future all simultaneously.
The looping video presentation visible in the first few seconds of the clip describe a distant signal from space in 1977 that has been called "Wow!" since it lasted for more than 1 minute and had the characteristics of what could be intelligent life. Hearing that reference somehow made all the sci-fi movie wizardry seem a pale imitation to something that could be real. And yet, from dreams and playthings come much bigger and life-changing realities: we read or watch something "from the future" and then one day find it for sale everywhere and being used by everyone: telecommunication, pocket camera, number crunching and sophisticated weather analysis at the touch of a button.

Added a little more detail to the witch character. I'm done with this image now this is definitely the final version. if I have time I have another idea I'm thinking of entering into the fusion contest (here realm-of-fantasy.deviantart.com/blog/33224748/ )
I still have 3 weeks till the deadline.
I've had my writer's head on since I posted this version with lots of ideas as to what the back story could be. I love the fact that despite being your stereotypical witch (green skin, pointed nose and chin, pointy hat, broomstick) there is still something quite attractive about her. her pose almost makes her look like she's leaping from the broom, rather than riding it.
The alien by contrast is almost the opposite, there is little to imply she's female, which adds to her non-human appearance. I like the fact her armour looks like both a survival suit and a warriors armour, giving her a sense of power and strength. something she'd need in a stand off with a being who can turn her into a frog. her pose implies floating, like an astronaut on a space walk. The matt finish to her armour also gives it a plastic feel rather than a metallic sheen which is exactly what I was after.
