Notice the part in the middle regarding the planet test, and that, at the bottom, it says that this info came from a manual written by the engineers.
Now, look what happens when you type in "planet test" (from the infographic) into Mother:
"LV-426". Coincidence?!
It brings up the same thing for 1alpha, 3gamma, etc.
So, unless we're missing something drastic here, it seems as if the engineers tested the black goo on LV-426, the results of which were recorded in their manual, which was in turn discovered by Weyland, then translated, etc.
This makes me think that the Space Jockey was on his way out from wherever he was coming from when he crashed the derelict on their old stomping grounds after his mishap. OR, because of said mishap, he failed to release the eggs to destroy whatever life was on planet. So the engineers were like "well, we have this black goo laying around. Let's throw it in there and see if that helps."
One way or the other, by the time Ripley and folk arrive, there's no indigenous life.
Thoughts??

Check out the part about the planet test. Also note where, at the bottom, it says that the info came from a manual written by the Engineers.
So I typed in "planet test", and this is what Mother responded with:
"LV-426". This looks an awful lot like the engineers tested the black goo on LV-426 and recorded the results in their manual, which was discovered later by Weyland and translated.
My theory is that the Space Jockey from Alien poetically crashed at the Engineers' old stomping grounds on his way to somewhere else. OR, that LV-426 was actually his destination to begin with, but because of his apparent mishap with his cargo, he failed to release the payload. So the Engineers were like "well guys, we have plenty of black goo laying around. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Either way, by the time Ripley and Co. arrive...no indigenous life.
Thoughts?

MemberFacehuggerDec-27-2016 8:40 AMThey tested it on Lv-426 had the 99% infection rate announced a biohazard warning and glassed it. After glassing it, the engineer war happens and the juggernaut is shot down on its way to somewhere else. The cargo is compromised and a fail-safe warning message is transmitted as the pilot gets chest bursted.
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!
