Hi everybody I don't know if somebody has mentioned this thread but was it the same "squid facehugger" attached to Engineer's body in movie Alien? After I finished watching Prometheus DVD yesterday, I watched Alien movie again:o) and really the top part of Engineer's fossilized body/suit looked like remain of fossilized squid facehugger from Prometheus movie..for sure it is not the part of the Engineer's suit-that "elephant proboscis" it seemed to be too big.. :o) [img]http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111208192216/avp/images/a/a9/Space-jockey-alien-2_1199468838_640w.jpg[/img]

I have a pretty good idea of where it is. It's just down there, in the basement....

no. its the "proboscis" from an engineer's suit. You have to use your imagination (because ridley didnt make alien with intentions of eventually making a prequel), but remember...the suits are potentially bio-mechanical. We dont know how the engineer in the chair on LV 426 might have degraded based upon the hostile environment of said planetoid. the hose/proboscis runs down into the ribbed portion of the suit. Presumably its a lot longer than just what we see sticking up over the ribbed portion of the "chair suit".
