Multiple green lines (ie. multiple ships) plotting Engineer ships' flights to Ea

In the scene where David first entered the cockpit room of the Engineer ship, the hologram recording showed multiple flight paths leading to Earth, from different planets/moons besides LV-223 only. Does this suggest that more than one Engineer ship were supposed to go to Earth? Were there other Engineer ships on other planets/moons just like LV-223 which were also compromised on their missions to exterminate mankind? In the final moments, there was only one green flight path plotted to Earth by the last Engineer, which was logical since only this ship was heading to Earth. Therefore were there more Engineer ships on the way to Earth from other planets/moons, approx 2000 years before the events in the film? If so, what happened to the other ships? Why didn't they succeed in destroying humanity?

Uuummmm...I think we'll all have to wait and find out the answer to that in Prometheus Strikes Back...aka Prometheus 2 It is a good question though. I wonder why they never thought about looking in the other temples...but I guess the mission went to hell in a hand basket before they could.

i believe all the other "pilots" where the engineers we see running away from something in the hologram.....the elephant bio suits only come out of the pilots chair...we don't see them at any other time....they where victim of a sabotage...by engineers who created or valued or rated the human race and did not want to extiguish us....its a heavenly war so to speak...as david did say there's lots of ships and these engineers where in full pilot bio garb and ready to leave...and all together in the tunnel... they where set up and killed by the good guys...hence none of them left.....alls fair in love and war isnt it?

I beleive if you are a engineer, you suit up and then climb into a ship...Once the ship is activated, your destiantion pops up and off you go. Whoever accepts the mission then goes and the next one is triggered by the next pilot...Why and what for....is what sci-fi is all about

[u].they where victim of a sabotage...by engineers who created or valued or rated the human race and did not want to extiguish us....its a heavenly war so to speak...as david did say there's lots of ships and these engineers where in full pilot bio garb and ready to leave...and all together in the tunnel...[/u] What do you base your sabotage theory on other than some sumerian myths perhaps? If there's one ship per dome, (which seems to be the case based on ship size and dome layout) and one pilot per ship. Why are there more than 5 engineers running around in the suits if they are only dressed like that for flying? Nice theory, but rather flawed.

"..hologram recording showed multiple flight paths leading to Earth." On my last viewing of this Orrery scene i did notice the number of green lines seemingly attached to the Earth Orb planet. If you are saying that should/ could have been multiple ships with their final destination of Earth. Especially with humans nor considered to the greatest threat to the Engineer's universe. Would this be from the base we see oin our movie? Or could their be multiple bases with Earth as a tsrget. If the l;atter is true then the World that Shaw/David knew is gone destroyed . To avoid that we would need to know locations of all similar bases that we find on the moon LV-223. Then again maybe David wanted earth desrtroyed. In his android mind trapped in a robitic body he could have God Compkex not seen in human or robitic history.
