And that will fill the one remaining space on the Project Prometheus site and that's it...
As much as I like all the stuff they're doing with news sites etc. I feel kinda left out. Project Prometheus/Weyland Investors was supposed to be an ARG/viral campaign, and it had potential, but now they're just closing it down with those three images. :(

Nice. Reminiscent of the Shado mobiles in UFO, which I guess is appropriate - and fits the design ethos of the front end of the Narcissus too.

LOL, you are right.  I was wondering why it looked so familiar.  Man, I think I just had an acid trip back to the early 70's.

Too generic.  Maybe good enough for video games, but doesn't belong in what should be a top notch film.

Can't wait to see it get totaled!

Bonus points if they "blow a trans-axle".

Edit-- also these labels are hilarious. "Bio-nomic telecom unit"? "Satellite-linked maintenance"? What does that even MEAN? ???

"Carbon matter sensors"?

Oh dear...

On the other hand, I wonder if the "bio-LEDs" are something to do with this recent technology:

QuoteThe Rank Group owned the studio until 1995, when they sold Pinewood to a group led by Michael Grade and Ivan Dunleavy. The purchase of Shepperton Studios from a consortium headed by Ridley and Tony Scott gave rise to The Pinewood Studios Group with both UK and international interests including Shepperton Studios, Teddington Studios, Pinewood Toronto Studios, Pinewood Indomina Studios, Pinewood Studio Berlin and Pinewood Iskandar Malaysia Studios, combining three studios steeped in heritage and prestige as well as new and modern state-of-the-art purpose built facilities.

The RT01 Transport is a great nod to the APC from Aliens...except the RT01 looks so much cooler.  This sort of reminds me of my father's old Volkswagen Transporter from the 1970's.  The older designs back then were so much better than the bland, uninspiring models that came out in later even though you'd expect the designs in general to get better with time.  I guess the general rule that "classic cars always look better than the new stuff" applies in the universe that Alien exists in as well.  I'm glad Ridley is applying real world sentiments about that sort of stuff in Prometheus...it makes it all feel so much more real.

Look at that sky! LV-223 looks nice this time of year. Ignoring all the desolation and murderbeasts, of course.
