Yes, it was. Prometheus is a prequel to Alien that explains how the Aliens came to be, and who the Space Jockey was. In Alien fandom, there's been long-time speculation about the Space Jockey.
From what I hear, there may be another, since Prometheus takes place on a different planet(oid) that the original Alien movie.
