So, the Alien Day live stream just concluded and it featured an amazing piece of footage from Alien: Covenant where we see Dr. Shaw putting David's head back on his body. We also see that David put Shaw into a cryo chamber and while she was asleep, he learned their ways.

We then see the Juggernaut arrive on Paradise and dock with the massive Scorponaught ship (As Big Dave and other theorized it would). We then see David prepare to unleash the weapon upon the unsuspecting Engineers below.

also could answer the hologram question the covenant finds of her operating the juggernaut. It could have been her taking off from LV223.

Where is the planet paradise located? Is it the home planet of the engineers?

No one's really sure who this group of humanoids is yet.

They might be more like us than the Engineers.  If it's not the Engineer home planet, it's probably part of a central trade route or important to their ancient past (as others suggested).

It's possible this is the planet the Engineers evolved on long ago, and this group was left to tend to the ancient garden.

Like Shaw like she is in this clip. Longer hair and not as hysterical as in Prometheus. In this short clip, there is much more feelings built into it than whole of Prometheus. Guess it is the quality of the script/writers and dialogue.

@necronom yep...already this movie has more feeling and true emotions than Prometheus did, and that's just the supplemental material! GREAT script/writing combined with great acting...should be a monster (get it?) movie!

I find it interesting that David said, "We were finally going to meet our creator."  Does he truly see the Engineers as his creator, and not Peter Weyland?

Starlogger Yes, very easy on the eyes. That brief scene with her and David was pretty heavy and changed my mind- I used to hate her with a passion!

Seems he despised Weyand. With good reason probably. I guess he feels he has a lot in common with Shaw. Kinda feels like they're a couple :)

He drew a sketch of her- I wonder if she made a comment about wondering how she looked. I also wonder where the note book paper came from lol.

In the scene with young Weyland, David asks Weyland, "Well, if you're my creator, then who created you?"  It parallels how Shaw asks who created the Engineers, and it shows they're thinking along the same lines.  I'm thinking Shaw & David start bonding over pushing the question of who the ultimate creators at the top of the chain are back further.  Dr. Shaw might want to keep moving up the line to the 'higher-ups'

They have a lot of stuff onboard the ship that I assume does not belong there. Maybe they picked it up from the Prometheus wreckage before departing or indeed the engineers have such items stowed away on their ships. 

Or they passed by a gasstation in space lol :)

@CarynDelacroix

I knew about Shaw's questioning of the creator's creator so I see that correlation, however, I don't recall David and Weyland having that conversation in 'Prometheus'.  Are you referring to the scene that we see in pictures from 'A:C' where David is wearing white and Weyland is wearing black in an all white room, looking at a mountain with lake scene?  If so, where is that scene available?  I've only seen pictures.

Yeah, it's one of the opening scenes from Covenant. Those likely aren't the exact words David uses, because I haven't had a chance to see the scene.  It's one of the ones that's been screened, so there are reports about it floating around.

iTunes version of Alien just releases a Sneak Peek of Covenant today, in which there is a scene showing what @CarynDelacroix just mentioned, "David asks Weyland, "Well, if you're my creator, then who created you?""

Whoa, cant believe they have shown this, still loads of gaps though.

looks like shaw helps navigate the ship and stays in hypersleep? does she survive the crash? Gotta wait.

it looks like the ampoules are magnetically launched, but surely david would have anticipated retaliation systems when he turns hostile? They are a long way up, only a missile or laser could affect them up there.

the sequence doesnt look like ridley scotts doing, it might be in an extended cut, it still leaves so many questions, i love the mystery!
