ONE thing is for sure...

One consistent fact throughout all the Alien movies (and Pro') is that "The Company" knows all, sees all -- but never TELLS all." David was clearly in the know, even more so than Vickers (he even turns his camera off on her toward the end).
But one thing is for sure: the Nostromo landed on LV-426 (same planet in Aliens, too) and there was a SJ in the pilot's seat of the derelict ship -- and neither of those facts are true in Pro'. Also, Shaw leaves her "warning" in simple English, where the beacon the Nostromo picks up on has a message that takes days to decipher in Alien.
So, we'll know the "connecting prequel" when we see it. But will all our questions we now have be answered? Mystery like THAT, people pay good $$ for.
