They made a *major* timeline faux pas if you're an astute watcher. This story supposedly pre-dates the Alien movies. However, the technology displayed in Prometheus is vastly superior to that shown in Alien. How is that possible?
There are many other mistakes made, and those can be found with even a cursory Google search. Nonetheless, I greatly enjoyed Prometheus and look forward to the sequel...

Really?
Is every bit of technology shown in the "prequel" movie superior to that shown in the earlier films?
Or? Are there simply some things that seem more advanced?
On possible explanation (or at least kind of an example): I could probably name half a dozen or more things you could fairly easily do 20, 30, 40, or MORE years ago that you simply are unlikely to be able to do today - some examples would stand, almost no matter what cost.
Sure, we've become WAY more advanced over the years, but that doesn't mean that we can still do some of what we could. Sometimes it is due to regulation, and sometimes it is due to forgetting/abandoning technology.
The technology in Prometheus including the fancy spacecraft was built by the billionaire for his own use so makes sense it would be superior to the crappy old mining ship in Alien. The alien spacecraft in both movies were essentially the same technology, the one that took off at the end of Prometheus and the one that crashed in Alien.
