- SynopsisScience fiction. In 2089 archaeologists, Elizabeth Shaw and Charlie Holloway discover ancient pictograms in a cave on Skye that persuade them that visitors from a distant planet have visited earth and that these extraterrestrials might have actually created our world. In 2093, the spaceship Prometheus, a scientific exploratory vehicle, is approaching an unknown planet on an expedition financed by the head of the giant Weyland Corporation. Shaw and Holloway are among the 17 people aboard. On the planet, signs of present or past habitation are found. Especially excited are Shaw and Holloway, eager to test their theses, but there are also secret agendas being followed by other members of the exploration team. (Synopsis)
