'''Dark Aether''' is a parallel dimension created on the planet [[Aether]] by a [[Leviathan]] impact. The dark dimension is the home of the [[Ing]], a hostile species [[Samus Aran]] encounters in [[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]. The exact details of Dark Aether's formation are not well understood. The Leviathan, together with the natural energy harvested by the [[Luminoth]] were somehow responsible for its creation. Landmarks on Aether and Dark Aether tend to mirror each other. A select few objects will actually move due to events in the other dimension.

Since Aether was split, it's planetary energy was split, as well. If one dimension was to gain control of all the energy, the other would perish. This provoked a lengthy war between the Luminoth and Ing, with the Luminoth on the losing hand by the time Samus arrived. Energy was exchanged via a Transfer Module, which bound to Samus after she defeated a Dark Alpha Splinter. Due to this bind, and Samus' lack of a functional ship, she agreed to help the Luminoth leader, U-Mos, reclaim the lost energy in the different regions of Dark Aether.


To access Dark Aether, [[Samus Aran|Samus]] must use portals found scattered throughout Aether. These can either occur naturally or be generated by Luminoth devices. As they do not have the technology to create portals, it is not certain how the Ing travel from Dark Aether to Aether.
