Corrected entry: In the Spanish audio, and I guess that in the English version also, the movie says that "after 400 years, the Alpha station has traveled more than 1,100 million kilometers." That's not even half way across the Solar System. It has not even reached the planet Saturn. Light years would have been a better unit of distance to use.

Bubble: I know all of Shakespeare by heart.
Question: Troops were sent to check out the mysterious toxic stuff in the centre of the space city but none returned (as mentioned by Clive Owen). Later it is discovered there is no toxicity. It seems extremely out of character for the pearls to have killed a whole unit of soldiers. This plot point was never explained. Were they killed by the pearls?
Answer: It is never answered, but it's safe to assume the commander has been killing the teams with his guard robots.
Thats nonsense because the commander didn't know the pearls were there so no reason to kill the teams. It was classified toxic because nobody returned, possibly incapacitated by the pearls to avoid discovery but not killed.

Correction: The Alpha Station is not located outside of our solar system, nor is it located in another solar system or galaxy that would require light years of travel. It only travelled to deep space, which is anything beyond the orbit of the moon, to protect interfering with Earth. However, even before leaving Earth's orbit, alien creatures have been visiting it peacefully. The Alpha Station is a hub near Earth that other aliens have traveled too. So nearly 700 million miles (1,100 million kilometers) is a correct distance.
