Factual error: The type of surgery shown made by the machine transversely cuts the rectus abdominis muscles. Besides not being a standard surgical incision in order to "remove a foreign body" as stated, it seriously damages important muscles of the abdominal wall making any immediate active mobilization of the trunk virtually impossible, even under strong analgesia.

Prometheus is the 2012 movie that brings up more questions than answers about the origins of life and worse as another space crew tracks a rogue signal to a strange planet and encounters nasty, vicious creatures bent on destroying all that they come across. It's familiar, mind-bending and just OK. Watch Alien/Aliens instead.

Question: Why would Charlize Theron have a med-pod in her private quarters that operates on male patients? Was that for Weyland?
