What's Happening To The Surface Outside Of The Temple On The Planet As Shaw Trie

But this sandstorm doesn't show up unexpectedly though, in the trailer we see and hear that the planet is changing, reacting to their presence and the sandstorm starts, hence the running through the temples and the footage of the Rt and buggies racing back to the Prometheus, crew wearing YELLOW HEAD BONNETS et al. Shaw gets blown back by the storm but holds the bag, and is rescued. We can deduce this because the contents of the bag helmet/head or Urn are then studied aboard the Prometheus, most likely during the sandstorm. It is probably during the sandstorm that the mutations begin and the crew unlock some of the secrets of the urn and the head/helmet. Once the sandstorm lifts they head back without their YELLOW HEAD BONNETS, ultimately leading to the realisation that there is a ship and it is heading for earth, hence Shaw without the YELLOW HEAD BONNET in front of the temple warning Janek and Vickers there won't be a home to go back to as the ground below her opens up, the Derelict preparing to launch towards earth.

i LIKJE THAT, WHAT YOU JUST WROTE, ALOT, I was just gonna say snorky in all likeliehood YOU are right, but we can't confirm it yet. And it seems a bit odd to me, really odd in fact that the SOIL is going to get disturbed on LV-426 in this thing...a heck of a lot!!!

chain of events: Isn't the opening through which the derelict rises originally covered by a mountain/hive top of temple (based on recent fb photo?). So, to rise up and out, first it must disintegrate the mountain of rock/debris covering above it and blow it all over the place - that's the sandstorm. imo At that moment, Shaw is either trying to take her baby or a bomb or scanner-balls or something back to the (soon-to-be derelict/or maybe not) ship. Then the storm subsides (obviously, there's only so much rock that needs to be blown off) and she finally makes it to the site of the temple's prior location and is standing atop the hangar doors which release steam/air and begin to open. Ship starts emerging. She runs to side and must start screaming that Janek fly the thing into it. My best guess.

awesome guess
