Well special order 937 confirms this from my POV 

Double post

it doesn't specify anything, just life form. my belief is that due to their knowledge of the signal, they know of an obvious intelligent life form that sent the signal and there will most probably be technology at the very least. if they know about a hostile organism it may have been from reports ash had sent back to them but I don't think prior to the nostromo crew being diverted that the company knew of the dangerous cargo on board

You have too much trust in the company 

haha the company is not to be trusted. that's the point. my theory is that company, being aware of the signal on lv426 prior to the Prometheus mission, redirect the nostromo as it is the only vessel close enough. this may have been their intention all along even before sending the nostromo on their original mission and always planned on redirecting it? they have hopes of encountering the species that sent the signal and gaining technology. maybe once ash reported kanes situation that's when their objectives changed? as now they have real time confirmation of an alien organism all other priorities rescinded?

Now that would be interesting Waftlord

if you dont feel confident to post here you can always PM...

Seems Fox Marketing dropped a few clangers today and released stuff and then removed it within a hour

I missed it, can someone PM me with details please

BIGDAVE lets see what the new trailer content tells us and dissect.  if what's revealed links into what i read i'll share.  

but to be frank, if i didn't know, i wouldn't want to know.

Ridley must be facepalming like a facehugger

Just say 'no' to time travel. Unless it's an absolute integral part of a story, then it's a guaranteed let-down.

Come on, guys!  This is science fiction!  Time travel can be a fascinating subject if it's dealt with correctly (not to fix plot holes) & I suspect it's going to be introduced in AC.  We all know there's a Ripley connection in AC.  If they don't introduce Daniels as Ripley's mother, then I wonder if Ripley herself would be either referenced or pop up (like in a last shot) - under the guise of this time travel theory.  I know the guy who does the Alien Theory youtube vids mentioned this as a potential possibility when Blomkamp said the chances of A5 happening are "slim".  Could it be that Scott wanted to prevent Blomkamp's movie because he had his own way of featuring Ripley in his prequel trilogy?  Could some sort of time travel theory explain  how an A5 could exist between the events of Aliens & A3?  Could the engineers in fact be time travelers?  Was the engineer who snapped David's head off in Prometheus simply in some sort of cryostasis or was he being "lightbeamed" or something?  And what of that mysterious hologram of engineers in Prometheus running down the cavern of the ship?  Honestly, I thought those open-ended mysteries in Prometheus had potential.  One thing I liked about this trailer was that I can see now that the Alien universe is much larger and more complex and we're about to see different aspects to it.  Of course the movie will be hypercharged with action, but I also hope this movie will explore & flesh out some of those unanswered mysteries from Prometheus & how they tie in to the world of Alien. 

I am concerned that the Dreadnaught on LV-426 is going to be explained as being the Juggernaught, and that the eggs on it are from morphing the embryos on board the Covenant?  Then we are back to question #1, 'Who is the big guy in the chair?'.  I still want to be more amazed at how ancient LV-426 really is, than it being so recent? 

@Ali81, definetly lambert was getting a right royal rogering by the alien, listen to the audio over the coms as ripley is bolting along the corridor the hydraulic pumping sound like a bicycle pump going flat out then lamberts scream.
