Alien bases

In my last game i saw for the first time the Alien building a base on Ceres, the game’s year was early 2026, too soon for me to colonize the belt. One other think it seems a bit strange for me is that the base on Ceres it is the eleventh alien base. I don’t think to remember soo many alien bases in the system, so i’d like to know if it’s normal to be soo many alien bases so early, and also some sugestion about how to manage Ceres under Alien rules ( I have to attack them because Ceres is too important? Or I should skip and trying to find water on Iupiter’s moons?) sorry for my English, i’m not a native speaker.

I think you just got unlucky in this run.
The Squddies don't often seem to go for Ceres - and I believe it really is important too because you can get so much back from it.
Short of going full war, all you can really do is either
A - look elsewhere and suck it up, or
B - restart the run and hope for better luck next time.
