Project Prometheus Website Updated With Hope of Three More High-Res Images Dan Koelsch, March 27, 2012March 27, 2012 The Project Prometheus website, which is part of the viral campaign for Ridley Scott’s Alien prequel Prometheus, has been updated to include all the high resolution images we’ve discovered so far and the promise of three more on the horizon.
