Aliens... in my opinion was Camerons first real kick at the big budget can after T1, which was a relatively low budget film, and he blasted it out of the park. It is my favorite action movie of all time, in any genre. Without spoiling anything, Henricksen has probably one of the most memorable scenes of all time in that movie, it is horrifying, and awesome all at the same time.
And to answer your question, the Space Jockey was some fossilized relic they found at the beginning of Alien, and a crashed alien ship that had sent out a warning signal to avoid the planet because of the Xenomorphs (aliens).

Like I said, I've seen most of both of them, but in parts and never in one sitting. Hopefully before the movie comes out I'll watch them both.
