ALIEN DAY Prologue 'The Crossing' - Arrival Stills
The Jaggernaut does not go into dock. The image clearly shows the (bomb) hole at the bottom of the ship. If it had docked, it wouldn't have been able to eject the goo urns.
small arrow = hole / big arrow = dock
I think my brain's about to explode, but in a good way!! LOVE all these teasers and such, TY guys for posting them, all of you!!
IN SPACE THERE IS NO WARNING
Yup I knew Juggs did the bombing. But the second orifice on the scorp begs the question of its purpose.
This movie is going to be jaw-droppingly stunning. If you want epic you need to go with a huge scale. Ripley is going Super-massive!!!
All anyone needs to do is hit the REPORT button at the bottom left of the post!

I hope that we are one day given more details on the function and interior layouts of some of these vehicles. I'm always curious about what all of the other stuff on or in the ships are for, even if they aren't relevant to the movies. Like the other two orifices on the scorpion docking ship. The view looking down on the Juggernaut shows maybe another hole (like the bombing one) but on the top of the juggernaut. Maybe it can dock to the bottom hole to unload, or up to the top hole to load things into the juggernaut.
it could be something as simple as either being able to deal with 2 ships at once or the 2 parts of the scorpion ship are so it can deal with different types of ship with different designs of docking ports?
drucea - 'Maybe it can dock to the bottom hole to unload, or up to the top hole to load things into the juggernaut.'
Yes, I think the same.
I'd always assumed that the scorpion thing was both a docking station and a protector of the planets population.
Given that both the scorpion and juggernaut are crashed in the movie, I assume it attacked the juggernaut when the payload was released.
I also assume that those two things that are sticking out either side of the juggernaut are like shuttle craft, where the leaders/heroes travel from the juggernaut, down the surface and meet with their creation.
The movie looks really amazing and looking forward to see it. Lets see when the time comes for me to watch this masterpiece. By the way in my free time i will play pixel gun 3d and will go for pixel gun 3d hack if i want to get resources for free.
The Wayne Haag concept above shows the Engineer craft rising out of the courtyard opening. The large scorpion ship may fold into place (change shape) with a hinge in the middle in order to rise out of the recess in the courtyard.
Nice to see the Spam gone, but also nice to see the thread bumped by more Spam ;)
I can now give this Topic a Proper Reply...
There is a bit of Mystery regarding this Docking Ship, those working on the Ship had actually said it was the Engineers Equivalent of Border Control and you really have to Question the Engineers Safeguards against any potential Hazards once again.
A Border Enforcement Docking Ship that intercepts the incoming Juggernaught just as it is about to arrive above the Opening Hanger is a bit of a Flawed Safe-Guard we must say.
Your point ATI i can see a valid side to it, because the area the ship arrives at (Juggernaught) has a Surface that just seems odd for a dock, but then the Juggernaughts Ramps in Prometheus that connect to the Entrance are only small in relation to the Ship, but even so it appears the Surface of the Juggernaught and Surface of the Docking Ship DO-NOT appear to be ideal Merging Surfaces for a Good Connection/Docking Point.
Before the Prologue came out and when we had the Images of the Juggernaught near by the Docking Ship, i would never had imagined the Docking Point to be what it was shown in The Crossing
I feel also those Holes on the Docking Ship are likely NOT where it would Dock Either, The sound effects for the Scene appear to make a Shunt Sound prior to the Sounds of the Cargo Bay opening up, this Shunt sound could be the Juggernaught Docking, or just bumping off the Docking Ship.
It really is a Security Problem if the Docking Ship has no way to Prevent the Cargo Hold to open up, this really is a error of judgement/precaution and protocols for their Race. (you can almost see why things went SOUTH at LV-223).
Regarding the Cargo Hold Hole... there is NO such Holes in Prometheus and its safe to thus assume the Bottom of the Ship somehow Transforms (maybe not right word) but i mean it appears a Hole can appear where there was NONE and then close up again to reveal no signs of where the Cargo Hole was.
I am going to assume the Docking in similar in that a Hole Appears in both ships where there are no visible holes until required.

BigDave What an optimist lol! Sometimes a good thread gets revisited unwittingly from a spammer bump.
They have their uses LOL
Much like we Humans have for certain Bacteria lol
