Jenova was originally discovered by Shin-Ra in a geological stratum. Thought
to be one of the Ancients, Jenova is actually a creature from outer space who had
traveled the galaxy in search of worlds to destroy and infect, before moving onto
the next. It was in fact the Ancients who did manage to trap her, which was where
she lay until she was discovered 2000 years later.
Shin-Ra ultimately used Jenova's cells for multitudes of experiments in trying to
create the ultimate SOLDIER. One of these people was Sephiroth who was injected
with Jenova cells before he was born. When Sephiroth found out about these experiments,
he believed that Jenova was his real mother and planned to fulfill her legacy by
destroying the planet.
Although Jenova is not physically in the film [unless you include the box that her
remains are held in], she plays a very important role. For it is Jenova who is 'Mother'
who Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo are searching for. Jenova is the key to the Reunion and
the key for Sephiroth's return.
