To anyone wondering, a megaparsec is about 3.3 million lightyears, and our galaxy is roughly 100.000 lightyears across. This is one where we should probably either suspend disbelief or just assume the people in the alien universe use a different measurement.

I've noticed Ridley Scott's interpretation of FTL travel ships have evolved through the decades. With the Prometheus front and center. Regardless of the amount of technology, using the primary ship as a terrain lander is a risk beyond belief in my mind. Understanding that this is fairy tale and they did want to showcase the outrigger rotating power plants. This is the only question mark in my mind regarding the Prometheus other than this fact it's a beautiful spacecraft.

Yeah... In my fiction, ships like the Pioneer make landings, because they're hyper-advanced, and the Pioneer (at 100 meters) is probably the biggest ship to make terrestrial landings commonly. Other ships can technically make terrestrial landings, up to and including the Non-Sequitur, a behemoth of a thing over a kilometer long-but because they have the field-based thrust and the gravity repulsion tech *to* do it doesn't mean that *it's a good idea.* Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Anyways, it's for that reason that usually it's just smaller ships that make landings.

If you're a fan of the original Alien, please don't ever watch it. Despite how incredible the visuals look, the story in this as well as in Alien: Covenant completely ruin all of the mystery surrounding the space jockey from the original along with the origins of the alien itself. Unlike what many people these days seem to believe when it comes to prequels/sequels, not every single thing needs to be explained, especially when it comes to horror films. Some things are better left to the imagination.

Using the online warp speed calculator, Prometheus was capable of cruising at a fuzz over Warp Two. In the Star Trek universe, it preceded the official breaking of the Warp Two "barrier" but according to canon the 35 ly voyage, along with that of the Nostromo, took place well before the formation of Star Fleet and the Federation.

I was always curious about the FTL system in the 'Aliens' universe (was it like 'Warp Drive', 'Hyperspace', 'Real Space FTL....somehow"). With 'only' a 2 year travel time, did you really need to have 'Hypersleep' capsules? Was there not enough space to store Food, Water, and other essentials for the trip? As you said, "MegaPARSECS"?!?! kinda weird ^_^ Finally, did they teach future crew members how not to run into the shadow of something falling towards you? ^_^

If your FTL tech is just a blank warp journey where nothing changes, there's nothing to do or see...and you have the hibernation technology...why not sleep your way there. The sheer boredom and tedium of the journey would seem more dangerous to the crew than just a long nap. Like taking a nap as you fly across the Atlantic or the Pacific on a jumbo jet.

Alien never got bogged down with FTL technobabble. Even the novelization treated it as magic, taken for granted. BSG 2003 followed the same formula...the jump drives just worked. Knowing the distance to Zeta Reticuli 2, (35 ly)and the time for Nostromo to get to Earth (10 months, according to Lambert) you can plug them into an online warp speed calculator. Space is big and even at FTL it takes time. The novelization for Alien had another plot issue: Nostromo wasn't designed for its crew to be awake full time. If they didn't get rid of the Xenomorph within a certain amount of time they'd have to go back into the freezers or suffocate.

Ships from the Alien Universe use tachyon shunts for FTL travel. The shunt basically transports a ship into some sort of tachyonic state, which allows said ship to achieve FTL velocities. The Sulaco in particular could achieve a speed of 0.74 light years per day. The Nostromo is likely much slower.

If they used thrust gravity yes it would be. But they use transitional scifi technobabble instead. Also worth nothing the ship flies at FTL speeds, which means it has to somehow break the laws of physics, so inventing a gravity generator isn't much of a push once you can do that.

@@montithered4741 the thrust gravity is both jargon and non-jargon, as no ship has enough reaction mass currently to generate enough thrust to maintain a noticable level of gravity for more than a very short period of time. The gravity is non-jargon, the drive systems are generally always jargon. Centrifugal gravity however, not jargon at all, but its complicated by needing some from inertial cancellation for a moving ship (or to be precise when the ship is under thrust) or a system were crew are placed in harnesses. It does also create an interesting engineering problem as there can be high stress points in the design, which depending on the scale need you to invent jargon materials to have sufficient strength. That said, there is a fairly popular theme park ride that already proves this concept works exceptionally well and isn't overly difficult to achieve.

@@MrNicoJac it very much depends on several factors. The mass of the vessel in question, and its distribution. The distance from the central pivot point of the rotation. The lateral forces been applied. The quality of the materials themselves naturally also come into play. Also how much of a margin of safety do you want. You don't design for what you expect to operate at, you design for what could happen. This is one of those scenarios were you can't say "this will/won't work" unless you have the rest of the information. It's like designing a bridge, you know on the average day it needs to support 5000 vehicles, operate for 30 years in X weather conditions. You design it to accommodate 7500 vehicles a day for 40 years and for every year to have a once in a hundred years weather effect occur, because you never know what's going to happen in the future and while it has to work perfectly all the time, it only has to fail for less than 0.1 seconds once to be catastrophic.

Yeah Weyland was a selfish prick, probably did it so the diagnostics would go faster by not needing to account for gender, which in itself would probably have slowed in down a millionth of a second

Kind of help rounds off Weylands character as being completely uninterested in anyone's elses survival save his own.

Only *12 medipods* were ever built? They should have been mass produced, which would drop the cost, and fitted as standard on every long range ship [enhanced to include female gender specific complaints] they are just so useful. Yes there's a usually a medical officer, but what if _they are the one_ who needs medical attention? And it could assist the medical officer if more than one crewmember was injured at the same time … and entirely plausible scenario as industrial accidents aren't taken in turn on a roster system.

You're still thinking small. Imagine how much money could be saved if you didn't need surgeons anymore. Sounds like a worthwhile investment for health insurance companies/hospital administrators, lol 😅

I can imagine each medi-pod is equivalent to ITER (fusion reactor) in our world. So it could make sense why there are only 12 ever made, not to mention patents and developing it further to monopolize it.

Only 12 of this high-end, cutting edge model were ever made. Probably medipod development is a highly competitive and ever changing field.

Its likely that at the time only the 12 existed. When the ship was launched. By the time the ship arrived at the system. Full production of the pods was likely already in progress cause for those 2 years travel maybe 5 or 8 years went by on earth0. FTL causes some time dialation depending on speed and travel.

First run prototypes are always expensive. They were probably built using cutting edge but like our former Discovery space shuttles of the 1980s. Hideously expensive crafts

How does the gravity is generated inside the ship? Almost every ship even the space station like Sevastopol which is not a rotating wheel design have some kind of aritificial gravity.

Prometheus and it's not even close. Especially if said vacation isn't going to any planets with LV in their designations. At least you can go faster than light without that spatial shortcut through the warp/hell.
