The Engineers have hibernating units that allow them to sleep for 2000 years and get up with a slight gag/cough and a crooked walk for just a few seconds. That says to me these guys travel great distances as part of their normal duties. We are talking other Galaxies easy here.

Sleep for 2000 years...hmmm...sleep for a long time... Sound familiar? They are copying the ideas from ALIENS (when Ripley slept for 57 years)

Yes to both my guests....Consider that there is no end to coming and going. Okay, we know that. But what do you do when you do? What is the point?

Could it be possible that they are conceived and formed and developed with the chamber itself? You know like a clone in a test tube or container? Maybe learning, living a life and being programmed. Programed for their mission prior to awaking from stasis? Just another thought to ponder.

I dunno about galaxies man. We are looking at light years in the 25,000+ range lol. milky way is big enough to find billions of habitable planets for them to splooge their black goo into the orpheuses of whatever unlucky beings live there. and I find the 2000 years threshold silly. What? does the machine just malfuncion after 2000 years lol? "sorry times up" I dont think so lol. its like rat poison having an expiry date lolz

Well here they are flying around in saucers and then some sort of flying donut with bite taken out of it many years later...These beings progress pretty well. That sleep chamber produces minimum discomfort after thousands of years? Of solar systems, there are literally no end...of Galxies the same and all that says is that there is something to do forever and ever....Looks like these boys are on to it

To be honest, I don't think the chambers necessarily suggest they travel a lot, just a long way - and, somewhere in the pre-production artwork for the Orrery, or one of those featurettes that's turning up, the map that we're now familiar with is referenced as a map of the observable Universe - so it seems they do get around - or, "goo", get around?..
