Alien: Covenant - Possible Answers To Its 10 Biggest Questions
3. Who Created The Engineers?
This is a relevant question, right?
The Engineers supposedly created us, we created synthetics and a seriously faulty one of them created the Xenomorphs.

Possible Answer: This is an interesting debate and one that is touched on in Prometheus. The film examines the relationship between science and religion and asks whether the two can coexist - could technological advancement could one day prove the existence of a higher power, one which created the universe itself?
