How do you spell Magellan?

I've been wondering this too Bio, as I've still yet to find this 'Magellan Mess Deck' door too. You don't think that cap might say, "Weyland Megacorp" do you? (I know, I think that would be a bit daft too - but it would 'fit').

Could the patch on the cap also being saying "...FINO/...FIND MEGA/H/R"? Maybe it's even part of something in latin, like a Latin slogan/moto on the bottom of an organsation's or instituation's logo. I Have to be honest though in that I know as much Latin as my cat does lol.

yes in a recent review of the trailer one guy said there was written magellan ( on janek hat ) but ive never checked myself ... so we are again in deep sea .... i hope the ship is called "Snoopy" btw "Magellan mess deck" can be simply an honour name of the mess deck hall . I think that many warships have some important rooms named after famous or decorated people .

I dont think it is called Weyland Megacorp, because of this... [img]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/uploads/Weyland_Corp.jpg[/img]

Snork' - twas only a daft idea, I only typed it aloud as I've heard a few times Weyland being referred to as a 'megacorp' which is in actually only a slang term. But if the hat was to say this - who's to say the hat wasn't a random company promotional item? For example I work for a large international consultancy and over the years we've had many a different slogan etc printed onto various promotional items. I still too myself think it's very doubtful though. I've also suggested that, it may not even be 'WEY' infront of the 'LAND' we can see and again, is it even "...LAND"? as I'm thinking that 'A' there may even be an 'F' - hard to tell for certain as it doess look to be a 'broken' letter - but this maybe just down to the embroidery lol. Maybe it's even a cap from a previous mission or ship Janek served on lol.

Let me have a look...

Well IMO we have LAND then we have MEGA... The embroidery on the second A is almost identical to that of the first A, which suggests an automatic embroidery machine (there is a characteristic relief on the right side of both of the A's - Before you ask my mother was a wonder at these things). The letter after the second A however is a mystery, I could be a C, L, U, Q, E, O, D, G or B because of the typography that has been used. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
