I'm watching the S6E6 of The Expanse. There's a part of the episode where they are starting to track vital signs of individuals who are deploying. On the screen, there's four names which stood out to me. Those being: Ripley, Hicks, Hudson, & Vasquez. All four of these are prominent characters in the 1986 movie Aliens. All four of the names are displayed together in the center of the screen. The first initials are shown as well in the episode, which also corresponds with the movie:

• Ripley, E (Ellen)
• Vasquez, J (Jenette)
• Hudson, W (William)
• Hicks, D (Dwane)

(Note: Name show on the screen in The Expanse followed by first name of the character in Aliens in parens)

EDIT: (To add image)

Is there any correlation between the two or is this just pure coincidence?
