The Engineer in the beginning of Prometheus consumed a small amount of black liquid in order to affect a planet.

With such a small amount used before the Engineer elders left, what would happen if David 8 used to contents of the cargo hold shown above (or from the juggernaut shown crashed) to wipe out Paradise on arrival?

David 8 obviously can turn it on and pilot the juggernaut.

Why wouldn't David 8 be able to carry out the plans the Engineers on LV-223 had for Earth but on their home?

"The other option would be that the Scorpion Ship/Dock also never came from this Place and David and Shaw acquired it from someplace else... if we Assume the Bombardment is unloaded from it."

I believe the larger scorpion-shaped ship came from somewhere else (explained in Alien: Awakening), those below on Paradise were expecting a different message than the urns raining down on them, and only the juggernaut has been shown discovered by the Covenant crew.

Excellent frame of reference analysis on the juggernaut above BigDave. Thank you.

Attack on Those Below the Engineer ships

I believe both the juggernaut and the larger Engineer ship can both deliver urns. The arch opening of the temple is visible in the image with David 8 delivering the urns on the right against the binding of the magazine.

I do believe David 8 is on the larger Engineer ship in the urns delivery image, see arch opening of the temple in the right side of the urns image.

Here are those below under the arch opening of the temple looking up at the attack.

Possible...

Then we have to ask a few Questions (which was the purpose of my Planet 4 Topic).

*Where does this Scorponaught lol come from? Surely not LV-223 as we see David and Shaw only leave in the One Ship and this Scorponaught is Larger.

*If they get it from some other place, then why would this place have a Ship that is carrying the Bio-Weapons?  Unless it is carrying a different Weapon that has different effects and is not the same Weapon System as the Juggernaught (Davids experiments can be carried out with the Urns from LV-223).

*If the Weapons are the same as LV-223 then why would they Store such Weapons on different systems, or did the Juggernaught offload some of its Cargo to that Scorponaught 

Looking at the Shot of David and the Bombardment it could appear David is watching from the Scorponaught  but it could just as much be him watching from the Juggernaught docked with the Scorponaught

Done another Comparison and Educated Resize so i could be a little off with this but i think for certain the Scorponaught is Larger for certain.

Time will tell, but i feel this is the size difference approximately.

Maybe it could be that the Juggernought is a freighter, in wich the black goo urns are transported to and fro Lv 223, where the go is made or stored. (You do not want that on your doorstep...)

The scorponaught (I like that word, has a nice ring to it...) on the other hand, is the bomber, wich is loaded from the Juggernought. Because of the instability of the goo, the urns can not be unsecured until the last moment, before they are deployd.

My guess is also that the scorponaught is not from this world (paradise?) But from the homeworld of the Engineers, where it was obtained by David and Shaw. Wich we will get to see in Alien:Awakening...

You are able to see the temple in front of David 8 more clearly in this fresh release from Empire Magazine.

The urns' tip/end is activating as they leave the ship.

Black goo/accelerant might be another symbolic/religious artefact, inverted by the storytellers. Black goo may be like holy water, it can be blessed and used to give life, or twisted the other way, can destroy life.

Black goo may be like a programmable dna substance that can rewrite the organism it comes into contact with. 

Like monks chanting or religious mantras, the goo may be very flexible and programmed using thoughts and sounds?

the engineer ship was activated by sound, shaw is apparently singing a song in the trailer, sonic technology?

Yes! I just saw that one, Ingeniero! Spectacular, dont You think? I begin to wonder about how much of the film we are beeing fed here, through different tvspots, magazines, trailers and so on...I thinkt it is getting a  little too spoilerish, for my taste. I do have to admit that I am a total sucker when it comes to click those threads, though...

Layers of urns are visible at the top of the image (enhanced).

I know Parkerparrot. I am weak and will spoil it for myself at all costs. I do believe that the image above may be from Alien: Awakening and we are getting pieces of both movies in the viral material.

For example, I believe the whole Walter construction sequence could be content from Alien: Awakening.

Ingeniero!

You're a true wiz when it comes to enhance pictures! Really beautiful work with the falling urns!

I think the whole thing or significance of the making of walter and David vids is to display the difference between the two, so we understand what will unfold in covenant between them...

Parkerparrot, thank you so much for the kind words. The androids are where it is at once they get their hands on alien weaponry.
