My Take on it So Far

The find the mountain that contains the temple and the labratory of Bio-engineers, this is like an inner sanctuary where each vessal of Bio-life is placed for a period of time in a kind of religous cerimony like the church does with holy blessed water. David take one of the containers for research and takes it back to begin investigating, this is deemed an act of mass sacrilige to this race of beings and is not tolerated. The crew begin to investigate and tamper and realise that they are in a temple that has been set up to start the beggining species of an entire planet, various creatures, goop and bacteria are slowly growing that are the origins of an entire planets lifeforms, this planet will be LV-426 (they are on its moon so they are establishing Lv-426 lifeforms from its moon). Everytime the engineers begin life on a new planet they first go through a religous routine of placing bio-tech fluid in canisters in a huge sanctuary almost as a sign that they are the beginings of this planets life so that many years later when inteligent life has developed enough they will go to the local moon and find that temple and know that these beings are the origin of its life. There are only ever 3 engineers involved per planetary life creation routine, 1 is a sacrifice, the other a pilot the other just a spare hand to help in the sacrifice and process. whenever 1 planets is chosen to start new life on its the same routine all the time, 3 engineers, the lab, the temple and 1 of them must be the sacrificial lamb.
Weyland becomes immortal but at what cost? i think he will be in this film what the jockey was in alien, he will leave a giant question, where did he go, what has he become.
David destroys the engineers, sabotaging them, they punish the humans on the mission but Davis is not human he is a creation of men but his intelligence leads him to sabotage and work a plot against the engineers.
Vickers escapes, Weyland goes missing, Shaw escapes. everyone else including David is destroyed. Hence Weyland never issuing David 9 in honour of David 8, instead they create Ash 1.
No tech makes it back to earth for the company, but the company through Vickers report are aware of something big happening out in space, Weyland who is missing still comunicates with the Weyland company and leaves them with details that there is powerful life headed for LV-426, weyland begin a false mining mission later on that will include an ASH android and its intent is to get to LV-426.
so who is in thye pilot seat? it is an engineer who has been on purposly contaminated by David with some of the Bacterial chemical they create in there labs. David throughout his investigations has learned enough info about the substance to know how it worls and how it infects, he uses it against the engineer.
The engineers ship contains a sealed cargo that no one in the film ever stumbles upon because they are always in thye mountain temple and lab, the cargo is pre created xenamorph eggs that have been prepared to be launched into LV-246 to clean up the planet before the engineers release the metal canisters of lifeforms that will develop that planets entire Life, plant life, amphibians, mammels everything.
On the engineers journey to LV-426 to clean up the planet by placing xenamorph eggs there the pilot makes an emergancy decision to land, he realises David has infected him, he creates the distress signal alarm and dies from internal bleeding, from his side comes a xenamorph/engineer hybrid that escapes into the hostile terrain of LV-426 inside the ship is a cargo of xenamorph eggs waiting to be found.
the big questions at the end, Wheres Peter Weyland now that hes immortal ?
and where do the engineers come from?
On earth without Peter around, the board merge with rival Yutani to become Weyland-Yutani, they now have one goal in mind and that is to find the lifeforms that where witnessed in the reports handed back to them by Vickers, Shaw and Davids Mainframe Database connection with Muther.
