Hive (Dark Skies)
The Hive were an alien species that featured in the TV show Dark Skies.
History
They were involved in a covert infiltration and invasion of the planet Earth in the 1960's. (Episode: Awakening)
Background
They are a microbial race that infests host bodies after which it spreads ganglion throughout the body to control it. Various stages from Alpha to Delta occur which show varying degrees of the infection. The Gamma and Delta stages are where the Hive organism takes total control over the host which becomes nothing more than a 'shell' for the invading organism.
The Hive are named after the fact that they are telepathically linked to one another and possess a 'hive' consciousness.
Technology
They possessed the capacity to create saucer shaped interstellar craft that were far superior to 20th century Earth technology in terms of speed and other such capabilities. Small craft were the size of Human fighter planes but were able to accelerate and maneovure to extreme levels. These smaller saucers were but scout ships which docked with larger motherships that were reported to be the size of at least three cruiser ships. The larger vessels contained a huge hanger beneath it near the center and emitted a strange energy that overwhelmed normal Human instruments. (Episode: Awakening)
