Alien crash site

The alien crash site is an unmarked location om the Capital Wasteland that contains the remains of alien recon craft Theta, which hurdled through a house and came to rest in a cliff side. It is noteworthy both for its uniqueness and for the similarly unique loot found in the vicinity. It is also the source of one of the Capital Wasteland's radio signals, the Recon craft Theta beacon.

Layout
Roughly twenty meters behind the house lies the wrecked recon craft. It is badly damaged and leaking an unspecified radioactive fluid (giving off about 4 rads/sec). The only point of interest is at the front of the ship, the side opposite the ruined house. The crash site is directly north of MDPL-13 power station, west-northwest of Greener Pastures disposal site, and southwest of Vault 92. The Lone Wanderer can also follow the distress signal as the signal grows louder and clearer the closer one gets. At the front of the ship, the cockpit dome is shattered. The pilot's body lies outside against a pile of rocks with the powerful alien blaster in his hand. About 120 alien power cells are scattered around. The trail from the house to the ship is full of debris from the crash.

After completion of the Mothership Zeta add-on, an alien homing beacon takes the place of the crashed craft, allowing the player to teleport to Mothership Zeta and back at will. It will also have a map marker for easy fast travel.

Notable loot

 * Alien blaster
 * 120 alien power cells

Appearances
The alien crash site appears only in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Upon returning to the Capital Wasteland after completing Mothership Zeta, the dead alien that previously lay next to the ship may be stuck in the ground.
 * If you have Mothership Zeta and try traveling from MDPL-13 Power Station to the crash site during the events on the operating table, the game may freeze. Restarting the console may or may not work, if it doesn't fast travel to a location to the north of the site. Vault 92 has been tested and works.
 * Nearby to the crash site there is an abandoned house with a bath, and if you stand in it you will not be able to get out.
