I'd need a bit more detail about what you mean by that.

Maybe, the black goo is made from a black hole, or something like an organism came out from the black hole. I'm just spitting ideas here

I'm not sure either of those are quite how black holes work.

I'm into the idea of them being some kind of Primordial Other native to the Outer Dark though.

I'm actually good with that Idea. I just thought this could've been more effective on bringing how mysterious these creature are.

Besides, this idea was inspired by this comic by Spaghetti bastard

:o These are the real questions!

I was recently watching Nope (It was really good) I thought it came to mine. What if The derelict ship and other ships made by the Space Jockeys were actually living beings.

That idea has been around for a while. I once thought it possible that the Derelict is a dead and shriveled Juggernaut to explain the different size and shape.

However the interior doesn't really reflect this.

We do see the interior reflect that in Alien Covenant.

Kind of wish that we should see more of this and acted as animal rather than just organic ships. Even if that's a unique idea on itself

If you like the idea of organic/living ships, you should enjoy the sci-fi tv series 'Lexx' 😃👍

Nope's creature rocks! 8)

Like Farscape's Leviathan? ???





There's a leviathan living ship in the Zerg lore from Starcraft²...plus the Tyranid fleet from Warhammer 40k




Personally, I would have liked the Giant Dome Head in Prometheus to be inside the Juggernaut and be a living computer that is the brain of the ship. The Space Jockey could grow from the chair as a manifestation of the living machine.

The three being one and the same entity, i.e zero albino Engineers :laugh:


Also, the ship being somehow bigger on the inside than on the outside like a case of...🤔

There two ways we can interpret this. Either one The Space Jockey and the Derelict are in A symbiotic relationship like the Farscape's Leviathan or the Derelict is part of the Space Jockey itself.

How?

The corridor Daniels and Walter talk in looks much more distinctly biomechanical than anything in Prometheus. We only ever saw the Juggernaut pristine in Prometheus and corridors like this one:


Then in Alien Covenant, this resembles Alien a lot more:



I am having difficulty finding any photos really, but in the areas where it is particularly wet it looks much more biomechanical than what we had seen before, especially the scene where they find the dog tags of Doctor Shaw.
