"Weyland Corporation: Building Better Worlds. Hello, friends. My name is Peter Weyland. I am your employer. I am recording this 22 June 2091 β and if you are watching it, you have reached your destination, and I am long dead. May I rest in peace. There is a man sitting with you today β his name is David β he is the closest thing to a son I will ever have. Unfortunately he is not human. He will never grow old and he will never die β and yet he is unable to appreciate these remarkable gifts, for that would require the one thing that David will never have: a soul. I have spent my entire lifetime contemplating the questions "Where do we come from β what is our purpose β what happens when we die?" And I have finally found two people who have convinced me they're on the verge of answering them: Doctors Holloway and Shaw β if you would please stand. As far as you're concerned, they're both in charge. The Titan Prometheus wanted to give mankind equal footing with the gods β for that he was cast from Olympus. Well, my friends, the time has finally come for his return."
