    I love how the giant canopy, in combination with the retro console, implies that the spacers are too low tech to have a decent camera + screen setup, and instead must rely on eyeballing it to drive a frickin’ spaceship. Cassette futurism is simply the best.

      The Prometheus dudes were called engineers, the guy in the og movies is the space jockey or pilot and chair.

      Same sort of pilot chair design but different species by all appearances.
