“Did the Engineers create us? Shaw and Holloway proved a connection, certainly, which I would have bet against. The real question is, though: Does it matter? My father created me; if I was dying, I wouldn’t crawl to him, begging for more life, like he’s crawling now. Weyland is no longer fit to lead the Company, and when he returns from his pointless journey to the Engineer’s ship, I will relieve him of his duties. No matter what he finds, it won’t be what he wants. It never is.”

Captain Janek on 12/26/2093:
“I had a bad feeling as soon as I got up and realized we’d lost contact with the scientists….I don’t know why we’re here, we shouldn’t be here. It’s a haunted house, this place, and the ghosts have teeth.”
Weyland-Yutani Report, page 58.
“The Interface 2037 (Mother) had picked up a faint signal on the journey to Thedus and uploaded it the the Company net. Ash the time, the signal was believed to be that of a lost mapping satellite. The decision was made to replace the serving science officer with an artificial person, so that Company interests would be suitably represented. The Nostromo’s return course was uploaded to I-2037 to pass closer to the signal.”
