 *We are introduced  to singular Sacrificial Engineer.
*Shaw first appears as a solitary explorer fing another cave map(showing a solo Engineer pointing to thye stars)
*David  seemingly  the only awake crew member on the Prometheus
*ONe Beheaded Engineer  that can't quite grasp  tyhe new world he is shown in the lab
*The Last Engineer  who is the only survivior  at a installation filled with many buildings  and ships
*Weyland  who had the largest organization in the world..many emplayees  no close friends and ultimately saw his life  drifting away wiped out by his only created friend being used as a battery ram.
 Our final scene shows Shaw  last Human crew member  with a anfroid  seemingly the last creration of man  traveling to the Engineer's world.
 I couldn't help to think of Ripley  heading back  to earth  alone  with a xeno.
 I think the theme is more about each entity  being alone with themselves as they face each step of their life.
 Not so much what challenge they face but how they respond to that challenge. 
Be choicelessly aware as you move through life
