[img]http://i.imgur.com/mCgFU.jpg[/img] here's how it went... and I was gonna use my (supposed) 3D skills to illustrate exactly this scenario, and I tried to do it (for the last couple days (I had it all planned out (in my head (got down to do it))) but couldn't. Here's what kept me restless all night, last night, a resolution to the concept FROM WHENCE THE ORIGINAL SPACE JOCKEY? Scene 1: it could be in deep space; it could be the surface of a moon. We see a wormlike (neurone-like) blob. Pulling and stretching itself along a surface or just jolting through space using its own moving centre of gravity. I had an image of the Giger leg-arm sculpture... but worm will do. Scene 2: a view INSIDE this worm; we see platelet like 'red blood cells' and tendrily 'white blood cells', close in one one of them. We see that this red blood cell has a black iris in the middle of it, a sphincter of black goo. The outer casing of the cell splits, the 'doughnut' shearing into two crescents. The white blood cells recognise this act and attacks. One white blood cell sinks half its tendrils into one crescent. One white blood cell digs into the other. Scene 3: the upper crescent (with its tendrily attacker sticking out of the top of it) straightens out. This straightened out periscope rolls over so that its attached tendrils can grip the lower crescent; the upper tupbe pulls the lower crescent towards it. The surface starts to undulate as the elephantine Space Jockey begins to be defined. Scene 4: The proto-Space Jockey embeds itself into the inside wall of the wormlike thing, those tendrils that remain free align themselves along the side of the Space Jockey. As the detail of the Space Jockey resolves, the inner surface of the worm starts to change also, taking on the familiar Giger-ribs look. The remaining 'blood cells' pop into a green sparkly soup, filling the void. Scene 5: view from outside, the outer surface and shape alter until the worm has morphed into the shape of the Original Derelict. If it were a moon, you could fade up an Engineer stood beside it for size comparison; you could also fade up a (tinier) human in a spacesuit, next to both. [b]Alternative Scene 5:[/b] external view of the Juggernaut, a shadow looms across it from the Engineer UFO. Space Jockey ORRERY rings pour out of the Juggernaut, actually further out than the map rings in Prometheus and, when they disappear, it takes the whole Juggernaut with it - transdimensionally. Anyway, that's it - couldn't get my (3D) brain to work it out visually.

you'll all have noticed I've ADDED the box art for 'the evolution' box set, from Prometheus to Alien+. And what do we notice about it? The ORIGINAL ELEPHANTINE SPACE JOCKEY sits in the Orrery Seat of the Prometheus engineer. Cunning deception, that.

Custodian- bravo, what a fantastic vision! I am sympathetic to your feelings about the Ganesha SJ, and am sorry your brilliant post was apparently buried so quickly. Here's a bump for you!

for me, the Space Trucker is nothing more than that, a lifeform whose function is (was designed to be) a deliverer of goods across the universe ... and they do this the way the Ix FOLD SPACE. None of your camp Appollo 13 lift-off exhaust scene, K-rist. And this argument that "Prometheus i.e. pre-Alien, needed to have the human element for us to empathise with," what a weak argument when you consider that 'what actually arrived onscreen' might as well have been a Frankenstein monster for all the 'empathy' we could have had with it. Far better (as you all know) for me, would have been the revelation of the originators of the Facehugger cargo - THAT was never discussed. In fact, there were NO EGGS in the film, at all. We didn't need yet-another-Alien-facehugger film, I agree. But it might have been 'nice' if the originators of such would have made it into a pre-Alien film. Example of a film that is mostly non-human and works superbly? Wall-E. The first half hour of that were STUNNINGLY EMOTIONAL. Or in fact any film from the Pixar stable; non-human objects anthropomorphised.

I'm putting (a 'narratively tailored' version of) this UGM Space Jockey welded to his chair scene in Liberator (free planet book #2) which I'm currently half way through writing first draft of.
