Derelict/Juggernaut - Fin Arm

What I always thought is that the huge egg chamber is basically the whole inside of the ship, except for the pilot room which is on top, right beneath the central dome, but we don't know anything else about it and its systems. I think that the juggernaut could be basically the same model of the derelict (not necessarily the same ship) with some minor differences in setup (and possibly purpose) as we see several chambers in it rather than a single big storage area.

Wasn't Giger once quoted saying that the Egg Siloh is separate to the ship? And that the ship lands on top of it to dock? *EDIT* Just out interest, do you guys think that the derelict/juggernaught in ALIEN is the same as the one in Prometheus?

I think Snorkelbottom was referring to this when he said "don't even think about it, use one of the dozens of threads for that one" :P

@ Mentos - Giger said thatm but Ridley said it was carrying a cargo of eggs, so go figure, but as Noxword said this thread isn't about that, this is about the fin shaped arm of the craft. Ridley has stated that the ship in Alien isn't the ship thats in Prometheus, so the question has been answered - check the news section.

I know the answer to this......The fin arm contains> A cinema complex Nightclub Resturaunts Officers club Golf courses In fact the fin arm is the leisure complex........you didnt think they just created new races did you? All work and no play? How boring

I also know that RS wants to explore the story of the as yet unidentified Space Disc Jockey (asleep in a sarcophagous in the nightclub) for the seqsuel. Sorry....should have mentioned this was a spoiler

You have to remember the Orginal plans in Alien was to have a temple with eggs and the ship. But they had to due to restrictions in time and budget make do with the eggs being on the ship. At that point when they made the movie Ridley and the production team never really had a definate theory for the Eggs Chamber. And indeed it was hinted the Ship laid ontop of such. But then the Egg Chamber looked a lot like the inside of the ship and some parts of the temple, so logic would say that if its not part of the ship then it must had been a docking station purposely built to hold the eggs that the ship then lands on to load up on cargo. Bit like when you charge your Ipod on a docking station to transfer MP3's and Charge. But then Ridley hinted at the idea of it being a Bomber or indeed it was carrying a Cargo through Space of Bio Weapons. This would imply that Ridley liked the idea that the Eggs was a Cargo on the ship in a large Cargo bay. @Mentos As far as the Derelict/Juggernaut in both movies... i think yes they are the same kind of ship they may have slight differences. I dont think the Prometheus ship is the one that lands on LV426 in Alien but they are same kind of craft.

A Commercial 757 crashed into one of the twin towers on 9/11. The image of that one above is a bit different and did not crash on 9/11 Thats the point with the Derelict in Prometheus and Alien, some slight differences to the same kind of ship, one crashes on LV223 and another lands on LV426 (only thousands years prior).

Original intentions are mute thanks to Ridleys recent statement, furthermore that is not what this thread is about. I'm asking for views/opinions/theories of what is within the Derelicts unexplored "Fin" shaped arm, not about whether or not the egg chamber is part of the ship, there are many other threads for that discussion Anyways, Ridleys recent statement clearly states that the Derelict on LV-426 was a bomber carrying a cargo of eggs, thus that argument and debate is now mute
