Peter Weyland makes more technological advances more quickly than any single individual I can think of. I think he had help from the Engineers.
I was speculating in another thread that we are just raw materials for the Engineers biomechanics. If we start with the premise that the Engineers are completely amoral and long lived if not undying, then every few hundred years or so, a small group of them on earth contact humanity and give them the necessary technology to make the next leap forward to reach the next level of population density.
The human race has reached a level of population density that justifies the resources necessary to harvest us, but a technological level that poses no threat. Peter Weyland is given the technological advances to sustain our numbers indefinitely, knowledge of FTL travel, and the clues hidden throughout history pointing to the Engineer harvesters lying in wait for just this opportunity.
Once a ship arrives at the harvester site, they infect/kill the crew, track where they are from and return to the fields for harvest.
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!
